MarkO, canibalism is not a political hot button topic ... or is it?

Well it is to me, Private Bubba, but this thread is not a place for your anti-communist hysteria.

I'm not losing any sleep over cannibalism anyway, whether its rumored or for real or in Papua New Guinea or Kantanga, Congo or North Korea.

(with two more verses!!!)


It’s cold outside, there’s no kind of atmosphere,
I’m all alone, more or less.
Let me fly, far away from here,
Fun, fun, fun, in the sun, sun, sun.

I want to lie, shipwrecked and comatose,
Drinking fresh mango juice.
Goldfish shoals, nibbling at my toes,
Fun, fun, fun, in the sun, sun, sun,
Fun, fun, fun, in the sun, sun, sun.

I’ll pack my bags, and head into hyperspace,
Velocity at time-warp speed.
Spend my days in ultraviolet rays,
Fun, fun, fun, in the sun, sun, sun.

We’ll lock on course, straight through the universe,
You and me, and the galaxy.
Reach the stage, hyperdrive’s engaged,
Fun, fun, fun, in the sun, sun, sun,
Fun, fun, fun, in the sun, sun, sun.



You did notice that was 'Rimmer' in the first Tomb Raider movie, of course.... ?

That hexagonal weirdness at APOD.

More fun with hexagons.

And Saturn's Iapetus is actually a very large walnut, LOL

It was just on the cover of Science News last month.... Oddball Iapetus:

"Iapetus, the third-largest and second-farthest-out of Saturn's satellites, is the weirdest moon in the solar system. One half of it is as bright as snow, the other as black as charcoal. Neither spherical nor ellipsoidal, as most moons are, Iapetus looks like a walnut, with a bulging waistline and squashed poles. Accentuating its nutty appearance is a narrow, 20-kilometer-high ridge that girdles most of the moon's equator, like the brim of a hat. No other moon in the solar system has such a ridge.

Now astronomers think that they may have cracked the mystery of this walnut moon. Iapetus' odd shape and isolated location, they say, suggest that its evolution came to an abrupt halt just a few hundred million years after it came into being. If that's so, Iapetus may serve as a well-preserved relic from the early days of the solar system, not long after the planets were born."

how hard would it be for you to explain the String Theory?

Cool site, there, Sass.

Why didn't it pick up that leading 'H'?     weird.

I've been trying to wrap my head around it but it still gives me a pretty bad braincramp.

In other words... That's above my pay-grade!

I wouldn't worry too much about it. It will be disproven mathematically soon enough. (some think it already has)

I imagine it has something to do with my less than super typing skills. I'm downright lousy. You people don't realize how much editing I do before hitting submit! Lots of stuff slips past me though. =)

Tilt...actually its good to know it gave you a brain cramp....i watched a video on it and it was greek to me.

Granted to get through Physics in College I had a classmate doing a double major who spent hours teaching me....I found I was only REALLY able to understand it when my BA was above .11

I was getting brain cramps the other day trying to understand the multiple universes contained within branes that cause big bangs type effect when they bump into each other. String theory was just the foundation for it. hell Quarks were way out there science when I was in high school. I get to the point where I go, "fine, string theory is like a bunch leggos all connected together to make a geodesic dome" and move on to the next mind blowing concept.

What I want is to just flick a gravity/antigravity switch and forget about teh science that makes it work :)
