Who knows?

Questions over questions.

good one AKD..

LOL!! 😄

HOW is obviously an important question based on the length of this thread..

Should we consider "WHY" which is more important in order to move forward in life...  although it feels like going backwards...  or maybe it's just me and my friend "B"...

I suggest we save the "why" Q for after the results of the Prime factor Coding challenge are posted.

There should be a lot of "why is my code so slow?" questions.

I see that how became a nice discussion.

Now I want to add something to the LOTR topic.

I saw the three movies. During these three years I read the lost tales (vol. 1 and 2) and started reading LOTR, which I did not finish until the last movie was shown at the cinema.

All books are great and I think it's almost necessary to know the history of Middle Earth if you want to read LOTR or see the movies.

The quality of the movies is great and I really love them, but there is so much missing in the movie or just different to the book (e.g. Merry and Pippin meating Treebeard).

So to me The Green Mile is the movie that all other movies are compared to. If you've read the book and saw the movie, you have to say it's just great. The main story is very close to the book and I think this is very important.

Re: the How? and Why?

Like Douglas Adams said "The history of every major galactic civilisation has passed through three distinct and recognisable phases: those of survival, inquiry, and sophistication. Otherwise known as the ‘How’, ‘Why’, and ‘Where’ phases".

Since we already seem to be getting to the Why?, I guess it means we're evolving. Soon we will be able to ask "Where should we have lunch?"...
