		<description>You write an interesting article Steve.

I am an atheist, but it is nice to see a well formed argument on the other side of the fence. You likened the process of evolution to repeatedly photocopying a work of shakespeare and expecting to get a page from the bible at the end.

I think this is an unfair comparison. To rework it, I would suggest the act of photocopying is effectly the paper&#039;s way of reproducing. The piece of paper can be copied multiple times, producing several offspring - each having mutated genes, or, random changes to the piece of paper. Now, your final (though nothing is final in evolution) piece of paper was a page from the bible. This represents a human in the evolution space - a being fit for its surroundings. That means that any mutation of the paper along the way that did not fit it&#039;s surroundings would perish, never itself reaching the age of reproduction. So do not photocopy bits of paper which look less like the bible than the original, instead throw them in the bin. Now, any surviving children can now themselves reproduce/be photocopied. Finally, repeat this process for a million years straight.

Given these conditions and enough time (evolution did not occur overnight), your bible page would appear.

In evolution, fully formed beings don&#039;t pop into existence just by chance. Evolution is a scientific theory, and science lives to be disproven - that&#039;s how it grows, so keep it up!

		<description>I&#039;ve had a very strange problem in my linux VM environment where the Java process takes up 100% of the CPU.

Initially I thought that the process demanded the need of a CPU so went out a 2nd dual core xeon processor and i see the same issue. The Java process runs stable but all of a sudden during day peaks at 100% and stays that way slowing down the entire environment.

I wanted to apply this trick but needed more guidance. where abouts do I exactly put this line?</description>
