“Moreover, when an abundant supply of matter is available, when space is at hand and there is no obstruction from any object or force, 1070 things most eertainly must happen and objects must be created. And if the fund ofseeds is so vast that the sum ofthe lives ofall living creatures would not suffice to count it, if the same foree of nature is still operative and possesses the power to assemble all the seeds of things in the same order in which they have been assembled in our world, you are bound to admit that in other parts of the universe there are other worlds inhabited by many different peoples and species of wild beasts.” (De Rerum Natura, 1068-1076; translated by M. F. Smith)

Finding Things At EpicureanFriends.com
What's the best strategy for finding things on EpicureanFriends.com? Here's a suggested search strategy:
- First, familiarize yourself with the list of forums. The best way to find threads related to a particular topic is to look in the relevant forum. Over the years most people have tried to start threads according to forum topic, and we regularly move threads from our "general discussion" area over to forums with more descriptive titles.
- Use the "Search" facility at the top right of every page. Note that the search box asks you what section of the forum you'd like to search. If you don't know, select "Everywhere." Also check the "Search Assistance" page.
- Use the "Tag" facility, starting with the "Key Tags By Topic" in the right hand navigation pane, or using the "Search By Tag" page, or the "Tag Overview" page which contains a list of all tags alphabetically. We curate the available tags to keep them to a manageable number that is descriptive of frequently-searched topics.
