    Would You Opt for Immortality Despite the Universe's Limits?

    No. In short, "to live is Christ, to die is gain." I trust I'm going somewhere better after this life.

    Okay, that's what I figured, I was just wanting to make sure that there wasn't something I was missing. Thanks.

    What is the Charge Change in Beta Decay of Sodium to Magnesium?

    Okay, so one of my hall mates across the way asked this question about his Chemistry, and then I realized that I wasn't too sure why it was myself, so I figured I'd pass this on to you. Take the decay equation {}^{24}_{11}Na \rightarrow {}^{24}_{12}Mg + {}^0_{-1}\beta His question...

    Poll regarding creation of an Engineering Napster thread

    I think it would be more convenient if they were all in one place, maybe put X-Engineering in one post and Y-Engineering in the next.

    Questions about a Hydrogen Economy; Scientific American

    I remember hearing there's a decent sized initiative in the nuclear inductry to become one of the prime players in the production of hydrogen, which would be a lot better on the environment than coal would be. I link to the DoE's Nuclear Hydrogen Initiative...

    Fahrenheit 911 Trailer online now

    The only thing that I thought was good about that movie was about how the media, especially the news media, relies on fear mongering.

    Need Help with English to Polish Translation?

    Whenever I use my mother's computer, for some reason for the past long period of time, there was been a bottle of "Polish Remover" sitting on her desk, and every time I read it as the nationality and not the fingernail crap, and I just think to myself "Man, don't tell the Germans about this stuff."

    Fahrenheit 911 Trailer online now

    I might see it eventually, but likely not, for fear I might take my frustrations out on the screen. Bowling for Columbine was bad enough. I'm just not too big on propagandist's works.

    What Happens to Bungee Jumpers if Cord is Cut at Apex?

    Well, I suppose you could affix the piano to vertical rails and that should at least cover the orientation of the piano. Assuming that you did drop as though you would normally have it sit in a room (large, flat surface available, hopefully with the top closed), would it be safe to assume that...

    What Are the Funniest 'Friends' Moments of All Time?

    I've seen probably a good portion of the Friends episodes, they were alright. I'm more of a Seinfelder though. Ross and the leather pants was one of the ones I liked a lot, and the guy he talked to trying to find Marcel a new home "Is he good wth sharp objects?"
