The reaction probably reaches an equilibrium. More about equilibrium and Le Chatelier's principle.

Frankly I don't care too much. Just comb it in a way that it isn't too noticeable may be. I'm planning to shave my head in a few years anyways. I'd take that as a joke XD

Assuming you manage to do all that, and assuming that those lifeforms function just like their real counterparts, I highly doubt that the system would be able to remain that way. Taking an environment where there is differential reproduction, evolution will inevitably take place. And so...

Genetic relatedness is well defined whereas we don't even know what those 'Asian' people whom you refer to, mean they say one cousin is more related than the other. I'd recommend reading this page before you consider this.

Haha, that made my day...

I use Ubuntu Studio 12.04, a variant of Ubuntu aimed at multimedia creation. Comes with loads of preloaded apps which work out of the box (mostly). But I might switch to openSUSE depending on which way the Mir/Canonical situation goes.

I've heard a lot about the game too. Even if gameplay might not be revolutionizing, I think the story is supposed to be the main selling point. I don't own a console (the last one I had was a NES), so I don't think I'll be owning the game anytime soon.

Agreed. Gaming is just like painting, or music, or football or any other hobby. I spend about an hour on average playing online FPSs everyday and I find it as enjoyable as an hour of football or badminton.

I don't know what you want to store in these bottles but over here it is recommended not to reuse water bottles because of leaching.

You should have at least let him choose his fish! I was thinking of recommending a whale shark...

This isn't even an attempt since by definition, vapour density is numerically equal to half the molar mass. Think what the relationship between equivalent weight and molar weight is. Also instead of valency you might want to use the term 'equivalence factor' although note that IUPAC has...

So only the sisterhood is authorized to do it these days? But he'd like it won't he? Warped spacetime indeed...

Actually I couldn't tell it was a joke either. Thing is, people on PF are a bit jumpy when it comes to crackpots; we can't stand it at all, and so react to even the slightest hint of it. Or may be that's just me (and that guy up there).

I see it somewhat that way as well (although I don't think the book is wrong, depends on the intepretation though). Natural selection favours that which survives to have another go at replication. A harmful mutation may lead to a nonfunctional/non-replicating offspring molecule, but seemingly...

Although in many species of birds, both parents help raise the chicks (i don't know about this particular one) it is the female that has to also bear the eggs i.e. for a given number of offspring the female expends more energy. Females try to mate with the best males and males likewise try to...
