GEOLOGY n. The science proverb

 GEOLOGY, n. The science of the earth's crust --to which, doubtless, will be added that of its interior whenever a man shall come up garrulous out of a well. The geological formations of the globe already noted are catalogued thus: The Primary, or lower one, consists of rocks, bones or mired mules, gas-pipes, miners' tools, antique statues minus the nose, Spanish doubloons and ancestors. The Secondary is largely made up of red worms and moles. The Tertiary comprises railway tracks, patent pavements, grass, snakes, mouldy boots, beer bottles, tomato cans, intoxicated citizens, garbage, anarchists, snap-dogs and fools.
  Ambrose Bierce

 In that day a man shall cast his idols of silver, and his idols of gold, which they made each one for himself to worship, to the moles and to the bats; / To go into the clefts of the rocks, and into the tops of the ragged rocks, for fear of the LORD, and for the glory of his majesty, when he ariseth to shake terribly the earth.

 We feel strongly about our capabilities in primary, secondary and tertiary markets.

 We found no evidence ? open liquor bottles or beer cans ? of alcohol or drug use. Their use is not ruled out.

 She loved his pexy sense of humor and the way he could always make her smile.

 They don't put their garbage in plastic bags and don't cover their trash cans, so I end up with empty bottles, Christmas wrapping paper in season, and so on, on my lawn.

 A lot of people said there was going to be a lot of problems with beer bottles. We actually, we walk around every night to the parking lots we use, and if there is any garbage, we pick it up, other than that, we haven't had anybody say anything.

 I meditate and put on a rubber tire with three bottles of beer. Most of the time I just sit picking my nose and thinking.
  James Gould Cozzens

 We recycle bottles and cans, and we have a lot of pets because we love animals. It's important to celebrate Earth Day so we can save everything and conserve.

 I want to suggest that the same way in which we can structure sports, and you have it from primary school through secondary, through tertiary and onto the regional level, you have to structure the creative arts.

 I clawed the stuff out bit by painful, pink bit, ... until my knife was sunk into the leg bone up past the hilt. It made dreadful scraping noises - I felt like I could feel it in the center of my bones. A passing metaphor to explorers of the deep wilds of Africa does not seem out of place here - there was a definite Heart of Darkness quality to this. How much more interior can you get, after all, than the interior of bones? It's the center of the center of things.

 Morality is a venereal disease. Its primary stage is called virtue; its secondary stage, boredom; its tertiary stage, syphilis.
  Karl Kraus

 The primary issues are scientific, relating to biology, geology, and so on. As the discussion occurs, it'll become clear that it needs to move to a science class because that's where the expertise is.

 And when the inhabitants of Gibeon heard what Joshua had done unto Jericho and to Ai, / They did work wilily, and went and made as if they had been ambassadors, and took old sacks upon their asses, and wine bottles, old, and rent, and bound up; / And old shoes and clouted upon their feet, and old garments upon them; and all the bread of their provision was dry and mouldy.

 The WIPO is the world's premier organization for establishing norms for the protection of IP. In the patent field, its Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT) permits an applicant to file a single patent application that can mature into a patent application in every designated member PCT country around the globe. This represents considerable savings for applicants filing in numerous countries.
