 True/False: “ The cosmos has remained uniform but lost density. ”.
 In the “Science and Engineering Indicators” survey by the “National Science Board”, 33 percent of Americans say: “ The universe began with a big explosion ”. No ! it wasn't like a chunk of dynamite going off, with spray diminishing over distance. The true/false question should've been: “ Since the start of... 12 Apr 2010 09:12

Pedophile Priests

Bad Questions?
In an unusual last-minute edit that has drawn flak from the White House and science educators, a federal advisory committee omitted data on Americans' knowledge of evolution and the big bang from a key report. The data shows that Americans are far less likely than the rest of the world to accept that humans evolved... 20 Apr 2010 21:54

 If it's measurable, it's in “The Universe”.
 13.75 giga·years is a long track record and “46.5 giga·light·years out” is a wide sample. Over all that time and through all that space, cosmologists have seen no anomalies, no OUTSIDE influences. The Universe is thermodynamically closed BY DEFINITION; if it's measurable, it's in “The Universe”. ... 20 Apr 2010 23:01

volume example Re: deriving speed of light out of just pure mathematics; 3rd attempt #592 Correcting Math
Previous example was just surface area example. But let me try out the volume example. And here I will use just the meridians, no need to use the Logarithmic spiral. And I did argue a long time ago that the inside hollow of a sphere is considered to be the hyperbolic geometry if we reverse the concavity. So ... 12 Apr 2010 05:55

Source of extra energy? (Fusion-Fission)
If fusion is a process of putting atoms together, and fission is a process of breaking them apart, and both cases produce energy, then it seems somewhat like a perpetual motion machine putting things together and taking them apart while always producing energy. Where does the extra energy come from? What am I mi... 12 Apr 2010 15:54

Space-Time Continuum as packing of log-spiral into sphere Re: deriving speed of light out of just pure mathematics; 3rd attempt #588 Correcting Math
Alright, I am pretty sure I received success on this quest of deriving the speed of light out of pure math. I take care of the units by allowing the units to determine the width of the curves involved. So if you want speed of light in miles rather than meters, then the width of the meridian and log-spiral is in t... 11 Apr 2010 16:49
