Europe Proton Collider to create a Black Hole
Electron's emit radiation in cyclotrons, and despite ignorant complaints, there's insufficient proof why there's no similar radiation from atoms. http://public.web.cern.ch/public/en/Research/Detector-en.html Europe's detectors make use of Cherenkov & Transition radiation. Cherenkov radiation (charged particl... 12 Jun 2010 17:06

Europe Proton Collider DENY Black Hole
Europe's Proton Collider deny creating a black hole because countries would terminate their experiment. To show their LYING, same possibility but since it poses no danger to Earth, they are searching for extra dimensions. http://public.web.cern.ch/public/en/Science/Dimensions-en.html QUOTE: "....To find out ... 13 Jun 2010 06:08

TIMES ALMOST UP FOR A 911 CORRECTION
The media are closely watched by the CIA and other "intelligence" agencies. These agencies control, usually in subtle ways, what does and does not get printed or broadcast. Disinformation they plant gets published as fact, and factual incidents are declared as false or discredited by more subtle means. If the d... 12 Jun 2010 18:13

axis of rotation (very simple question)
This is a simple (ignorance-based) question.... please forgive me. If I hold a car above a road, the wheels rotate about the axle. But then I drop the car onto the road and (assuming no slipping), the axis of rotation is no longer the axle. It has become an instantaneous axis of rotation about the contact ... 12 Jun 2010 21:31

classical Non-locality possible?
Hi, whenever there are Non-Local effects, must it always be quantum? Can't non-locality be classical?? Field or wave can be vectoral or scalar (such as the higgs field). Does this mean the higgs wave being scalar and true in all parts of space is a non- local field or wave? ... 12 Jun 2010 06:06
