thank you very much for that post... people really have a tendency to misunderstand the word "theory"...

thanx, m8.

any of you guyes know some decent sources for tight-binding (LCAO) theory? i wish to use the orbitals and the position of the atoms and the angle between the orbitals for calculating the resonance and overlap integrals, but it's hard to find specific sources... so if you happen to know any...

i'm always dumbfoundled by the desire to ponder about these unfathomable subjects. As of now it is a waste of time, albeit a fairly entertaining waste of time :) The fact is: Randomness is irellevant per se... probability is the key. you cannot predetermine a random event, so you can only...

ridiiiiicuuloouuuuussssss![/size]

or enough paper ... but of course the number theoretically exists: 10^10000 <--- there you have it. theoretically... i can even divide it by two: 5*10^9999 the issue is, of course, capacity. what if it was written in atoms? would it fit into space then? if not, then the universe cannot...

that's actually quite interesting read on that page... except for the really obvious comments from the us department of whatever, that everyone should lower their taxes which would make them better countrys... there's more to socialism than state ownership though... state ownership doesn't...

hehehehe... so now economically free = capitalistic? no it means free market. like i said, socialism+free market (a capitalistic trait) = europe... did you notice Denmark and sweden up there in the top? those are probably two of the most socialistic oriented countrys in the entire world. and...

okay, well... ... anyway genetically, there would be some traits that would carry over. physiological things and some chemical things in the brain... e.g. the timing of the hormonal development would probably be the same, so just like a son have some traits from his father, the clone would...

if you call North Korea communistic, then you're definitely just trying to make a point, cause that has got nothing to do with communism, really. just as many people are moving to european countrys, which are just as socialistic oriented as capitalistic. and they don't even "advetise" like...

btw... with the typical "communism is best" logic, capitalism is actually the best: total freedom of choise. everybody helps one another out of free will. social problems are dealt with through voluntary funds... it's a wonderfull world... except that humans as a species are selfish and...

you just answered your own question

no matter... let's just isolate it like this: humans are not pretty much done evolving ... that's such a typical religious argument... (and by that i mean, it's used a lot by religious people) if we were, we wouldn't have wisdom teeth or appendix's and we definitely wouldn't have all sorts of...

you must mean fascism... yeah... communism is a great idea... but unfortunately, it is absolutely impossible to achieve. i'd say social democrasy like in scandinavia perhaps; that's a mix between socialism and free market... no extreme is a viable choise imo... now notice, that I'm a socialist...

the reason is the same that identical twin don't have the same fingerprints or same rectinals or have hair sacks grow in exactly the same places: biology is heavily subject to its environment and to quantum uncertainty just like every thing else is. there could be a delay in one protein being...
