WHY YOU SHOULD BUY MY PRODUCTS

(0)
WHY YOU SHOULD BUY MY PRODUCTS: I am thrilled and honored to be a TES author. My storys and programs have been viewed and downloaded around the world; especially there in the UK. While it is interesting to see the map light up with all those hits, I must mention why you should occasionally buy my products especially if your circumstances permit. THE BIBLE SAYS: Timothy 5:15 For the scripture saith, thou shalt not muzzle the ox that tread out the corn. And, the labourer is worthy of his reward. Leviticus 19:13 Thou shalt not defraud thy neighbor, neither rob him, the wages of him that is hired shall not abide with thee all night until the morning. Deuteronomy 24:15 At his day thou shalt give him his hire, neither shall the sun go down upon it, for he is poor , and setteth his heart upon it; lest he cry against thee unto the Lord, and it be sin unto thee. COMMENTARY: This seem perfectly right and reasonable to me. I enjoy writing and presenting my work to you. I do not want barriers against it getting to you, especially you poor. However; you should occasionally buy a product. I will put some in the pay for status to give you the opportunity to exercise your responsibilities and feel good about yourselves. My music score writing program especially. It is still possible for a determined amateur to write something of value. (Thank you Russel). I am working hard and I have a 40 year experience with programming. Some of my stuff is good. Look at it.

THE CELL PROBLEM WHY WE ARE MADE OUT OF CELLS

(0)
The cell is the individual unit of life. It evolved over long ages and is pretty good. It has many fantastic tricks. It can even reproduce by splitting in two! However, there is a problem. Cells work better if small. This is because if small, oxygen and other substances can come in and out easier being right near the cell boarder. Cells evolve toward higher function. Some have tails to swim, mouth like parts, eye spots. But..they must contend with the basic fact.. cells work better if small. So how can bigger, higher functioning animals be made? The solution is to have an animal made of cells working together. This has many advantages: Cells can specialize. New animals can be made with a rearraigement of cells following similar plans. Cells can die and be replaced without much disruption to the whole animal. So, we are to made of a union of cells. We must understand ourselves as a collection of cells which have mostly given up their independance for a better existance in a place created by their collective efforts!
