If you know so much why don't you go do something with that god given talent of yours instead of pining over this stupid topic, which shouldn't be on this group in the first place. Just shut up you annoying freak!

I am sure you are aware of all this and are bringing in extra fluff to distract. As an aside, the nature of a scientific proof is falsification and it only remains valid until such a time as it is falsified. Mathematical proofs tend to be more rigorous.

Now you accept that the distance between the masses actually matters, and you seem to agree that the force isn't affected by whatever names we assign to the objects. John

Sure... when over 30% of their "income" is from bootlegged copyright theft, and pirated sales of softwares and DVD titles. How far would they be if we had placed our stamping plants ALL in Mexico? How far would they be if we had never placed a single IC or hard drive plant in their country? How far would they be if we had denied them a position in the world economy? After all... they do not belong, with the way they treat their own people either! They are a bigger sleeping giant than Russia or N. Korea could ever be! WE LET THEM IN, and now they will end up with the biggest GNP in the world only as a result of sheer numbers. Had we stuck to our guns, ther would likely have already been a war. Now we have to trust them to join the rest of the world in peace. That's a big stretch, but we are committed to give them the benefit of the doubt. Ever heard of the "China Construction Bank"? It is already the biggest bank in the world. Got clue? |
