| imagine a dogs thinking ! |
| It's a formatted PDF document straight from the publishers, so conversion to plain ASCII text would make it a bit less coherent; IE., lack of graphics and formatting. Also YouTube severely limits message length. This would far exceed that limit. Since you're unwilling to mail me an E-address i can email it to, i can see if YouSentIt can hold the file and i'll post the URL up here. youtube tries to filter URLs out but we'll figure something out. |
| Yeah, um, maybe you shouldn't talk down, it's not like I have some way of knowing what file format some unknown individual on the internet has some copy of some article in. In any case, you don't have to cut and paste the file, so the format is of no consequence, cut and paste the contents (as in the text itself), that can be pasted into youtube email with no trouble. I've done it before so I'm pretty sure it can be done. |
| Uh, yeah. You can't cut n paste a PDF document into YouTube messages. Unless it's tiny - which this isn't. |
| It needn't be an attachment. Cut and paste. |
| Well if you can figure out how to get YouTube to handle attachments... Trying to not say anything derisive here... |
| I'd be willing to read the article, but you don't need my email, send it to me through the youtube email/message function. It would be nice to finally get a message through it that didn't say "Hey I like your stuff, now here's a link to my porn." That said, because 2 doctors wrote something against animal testing certainly doesn't prove they're right, surveys seem to indicated that 95% of physicians think animal testing is essential. |
| You assume that the Nobel committee is the last word, and also unbiased. Neither of which is the case. It's a bit ironic considering the reason why Nobel even created the prize- to make up for all the death he caused. If you're intellectually honest, drop me an email address and i'll send you the article from Skeptic mag. From there you can read "Sacred Cows and Golden Geese: The Human Cost of Experiments on Animals", written by a human MD and animal DVM team. Worth a look. |
| You certainly can't assume it would change my current beliefs if you don't know what my current beliefs are. Here's a sampling: animal experimentation has yielded tremendous progress for life on the planet, this is why in the last 100+ years, 70+ Nobel prizes have gone to scientists conducting research on animals; this research has given us almost all medical advances, ever. These currently benefit both humans and animals. None of this is true of racism or sexism, so they aren't analogous. |
| Drop me your email, i'll send you an article from a recent Skeptic magazine that will make you question your current beliefs. |
| U.R.S.S.? No comment... LAIKA FOREVER! |
| This is untrue: "Monument to the Conquerors of Space" was made in 1964 and Laika is the centerpiece of the monument to cosmonauts. |
| The reply is untrue, the Monument to the Conquerors of Space in Moscow (1964) has Laika in her capsule at the center the rest of the cosmonauts to come. Do a google image search for "Monument to the Conquerors of Space" and you will see poor Laika. The monument is quite beautiful also. (Not that it will bring poor Laika back) |
| Scientists don't just do testing on animals just to be cruel, they do it because it's the best way to perform their research. If there were some way to get the information they are after, without the use of animals, since so many deem it morally questionable, they would. But they don't have such an option in the modern day, and they certainly didn't in the 1950's. |
| Not entirely accurate. The dog died after at least 4 days in orbit, not just after the first few orbits. |
| Sputnik 2 was so rushed (because Khruschev wanted it by the holiday) that half the systems failed and poor Laika roasted slowly to death when the life support gave out. |
| Ground control to Major Laika? |
| it is funny that you are so supportive of a failed system. if the soviet union was indeed greater than the USA then they would still exist today. |
| Soviet Union > USA The dog died in honor of grear Mother Russia |
| omg ever heard the song laika by mecano its about this its so sad i cried |
| one of the scientists had said that they did not learn enough from the mission to justify the death of the dog--pretty sad huh- I've never read of they dedicating any grave space for her, only the memorial that was erected on the 11th of this month. |
| Soo sad, it would NOT happen today with the animal rights laws. I think they did it just for proproganda to say/show it could be done, i bet they didn't learn a thing? Where is Laika's grave by the way, since she gave her life it should be in a prominent place? |
| i've always felt that prisoners/kilers should be used for all this horrendous testing that is done on animals. Why support someone in prison for the rest of their life-useless.. Useless humans would be far more accurate for these tests than the poor animals. I have far more sympathy for helpless animals than the rutheless people that mistreat them. |
| In total darkness and chained so she could not turn around, her heart took 3 times longer to rest after launch than a centrifuge ride; she died from extreme overheating and panic just a few hours after the mission started. The space coffin full of her rotting juices took 5 months to return to earth. |
| wtf is so funny you retard? |
| i know those heartless basterds just found laika on the street and one guy took her home so she would get ''rewarded'' for dying...WHY COULDN'T THEY SEND A HUMAN THAT WAS COMMITING SUICIDE? IT WOULD HAVE MADE LAIKA LIFE HER LIFE AND THE PERSON THAT WANTED TO KILL THEMSELF WOULDN'T DIE FOR NO REASON...AND THOSE BASTERDS NEW SHE WAS GONNA DIE CUZ THEY BUILT THE STUPID SHUTTLE KNOWING IF U GO IN U CAN'T COME OUT EVER AGAIN...Laika died from the heat and not enough oxegyn...:'( |
| oh man...it's kinda sad how people get heartless . they don't even think how laika would suffer a horrible death. i wish the scientists didn't sleep at night because of their conscience... |
| Poor dog ='( |
| You go first. |
| Then perhaps one day we'll see what it's like to be on the other side of the equation. |
| Wikepedia encyclopedia. |
| i just ate a steak... :-O |
| hahahaha lol |
| I would agree with you mate, that was very bad for me to. To think how she suffered. |
| The mournful howl at the end of this did me in. |
| Worse of all, she died all alone! No human companionship or anything! That's one of the worse ways to die. All alone :( |
| What if they are even worse ? :D |
| What have they done of good things for nature, animals, earth ? .. Humans are ego's . I'd rather be an alien than a human , ! d: |
| Why should all humans die? |
| Humans sucks ! All humans should die (: Laika . . . Poor Dog ! |
| I really feel bad for Laika suferring from heat *Happy 50th aniversary Laika!!* |
| Laika Rocks!!!!! |
| Can you verify this information? Is there a source online that says this? So much of Soviet space history has changed over the years, but this is the first time I've heard this one - would like to know where you got this info. Thanks. |
| Actually, according to Soviet documents uncovered after the fall of the USSR, Laika died in the boost phase due to a failure of heat and radiation shields. She never reached orbit; the signals seem to have been faked. |
| Laika died of stress and heat |
| what kind of a novel is that? |
| Poor Laika, cruel human beings! |
| The Soviets did not plan to bring Laika back to earth; there are several versions of her planned demise - either poison in her last meal or asphyxiation when the batteries in her spacecraft ran down and life support functions ceased. As it turned out, her cabin overheated during the first few orbits and she most likely died from heat and related stress early in her mission. In my novel "Screwed Pooch," I discuss this all in detail. |
| She really didn`t die horribly it was probably fast beacause of the radiotion and radiation in space makes you sleepy then kills you so she probably died right after she fell aslleep. (prepares for a stupid comment to me from some idiot) |
