placenta recipes?

I notice on the Talk:Childbirth page that you say "I have known friends to eat their placenta".

I can tell you that it tastes like beef heart. Problem is, the texture tends to be extremely spongy. I also have no idea how best to cook it. I've tried stir-fry and baking so far. It'd be great if you could ask your friends for recipes. I'd have to change the spices of course, because I hate onions and garlic. I'm really most interested in cooking method, time, and temperature. AlbertCahalan 03:35, 14 May 2005 (UTC)

Thanks. It's here now. If a picture exists, that would be a great addition. Would I be right to guess that "Cook quickly" means to stir-fry at high heat? That's the part I really care about, so that I don't burn the placenta or make it tougher. AlbertCahalan 15:01, 24 May 2005 (UTC)

My 'housekeeping' edits

Thanks for the kind words. Since I prefer to spend most of my Misplaced Pages time doing that kind of light editing, I especially appreciate Wikipedians like you that add content. Niteowlneils 8 July 2005 00:29 (UTC)

Answers in Genesis links

I think it would be better to decide what is useful rather than delete itas a whole which is why I reverted your edit. Falphin 9 July 2005 01:10 (UTC)

  • I agree that most of the links should not be there, but I believe some are relevant like their statement of faith. The big issue is that the article doesn't use references and so the external links is where the most relevant links should end up. Our options are to leave the most relevant in the external links, create references or possibly link them in the article like it is done at the CARM. I don't have time to look through them today but hopefully will before I leave on my vacation. I have no intention of going into a edit war either as I never have before. Thanks for your reply.

Hiya

Yeah thanks. I wouldnt knock the Wiki markup language too much, it's pretty good... couldnt ask for much better than it. Also the imageof the Koala isnt the Australian Skeptics logo... it's their mascot.. slightly different..

Thanks for noticing the Jerilderie image.. haha!

Are you a member of the Australian Skeptics by the way? - UnlimitedAccess 07:42, 12 July 2005 (UTC)

Awesome, which issues... I will pull out my Great Skeptic CD and have a look see.. :) I would love to read your stuff.. :) - UnlimitedAccess 15:03, 12 July 2005 (UTC)
If you ARE a skeptic, how about hopping over to my User page and looking at the two categories that might be relevant for you - skeptics and anti-quackery. -- Fyslee 11:53, 10 January 2006 (UTC)

Pope's Hitler

I agree that the article is essentially incomprehensible. Uncle G. is correct that it is fallout from an edit war. I had not seen this article until today, but have had to write up an RfC against its author, Misplaced Pages: Requests for comment/Famekeeper because of his filibustering on talk pages. He thinks that leaders of the Catholic Church were guilty of complicity in the Holocaust. That is a valid POV supported by some scholars. He also thinks that any deletion of (sometimes unsourced) arguments to that effect is censorship.

Thank you for your patience. Robert McClenon 16:45, 25 July 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for the compliment!

Thanks for the great compliment, and on my birthday too! Telling you what you already know- but Misplaced Pages is a great tool for giving fact-based information, that is becoming a first-stop source for people looking for that information in a place they trust. It's probable that a school-child who is sent time after time to the AiG page will eventually stumble on the Misplaced Pages pages, where he/she is going to discover there's a whole world out there who live and explore in a universe that's a million times older than he/she was taught.

This is the easy part- now I'm waiting for the chipping away of my work by the AiG defenders. I'm going to fight them tooth and nail. Let's keep vigilant over the next few days. Christianjb 04:27, 24 November 2005 (UTC)

Answers in Genesis Alert.

Just to let you know that 58.162.252.67 is mounting an attack on Answers in Genesis and Jonathan Sarfati. Any help in the next day or two will be appreciated. Christianjb 17:31, 2 December 2005 (UTC)

Fun

You've been missing all the fun. We had a massive attack today in which most of the work done in the last couple of weeks was simply deleted. (Have a look through the history page) They also ran all over the discussion page putting in nasty little comments here and there. I'm trying to contact an admin about this to see what can be done. My advice is for everyone to keep calm and do essentially nothing until then. There's little point in reverting edits at this time, because they'll just revert them back. Christianjb 22:02, 2 December 2005 (UTC)

One tries...

Thanks for that. One tries (and I don't think it's quite been finished in that article as it currently stands, but I hope others will chime in), but it's an ongoing battle. Unfortunate, but... - Nunh-huh 09:12, 2 January 2006 (UTC)

LoPbN removals

Hi, Henry, and thanks for your attention to LoPbN. But please don't remove simply for lack of article without research on their notability. Of the two by you i noticed together, one has . IIRC, LoPbN rdlks become blue at something like a 5 or 10% rate per month. Like rdlks elsewhere, they are a valuable source of new articles. TIA.
