    Making a pH 7 Liquid: A Simple Guide

    Hello. This is probably a really dumb question, but I was wondering how the ph system works in relation to making a ph 7 liquid (which would be water and salt, right?) The way I was thinking was if you have an acid with a ph3 and a base with a ph8, and you wanted to mix them to produce a ph7...

    Basic Questions over the function of Logic Gates

    Also, one other question: If a SINGLE destination (a light) was made and a BRANCHING TREE of gates (2 per previous 1 wire) went out and at the end there were a switch per wire, would you be able to turn the light on with only 2 switches? I have a feeling this is the case but am unsure.

    Basic Questions over the function of Logic Gates

    Thanks, well I found a simulator site and it has cleared things up: http://richardbowles.tripod.com/dig_elec/tools/sim/sim.htm it's kind of fun to play with. My only other question has also been answered above I guess, and that is: if this a widely known symbol system or is there other...

    Basic Questions over the function of Logic Gates

    Hello, this is not homework. I am working on a personal project and had I think a fairly simple set of questions. They really are all the same, so answering one as true probably means the others are true as well, but if not please point out where and how I'm wrong. I have a very basic idea of...

    News Is there a BP Plan available for the public?

    That's part of the problem that acivists and anyone who cares about the future of the water on their planet should care about. It's shortsighted to say this is a corporation and therefore their rules are above our lives and ecosystem. They made the mistake, they don't know how to fix it, so this...

    News Is there a BP Plan available for the public?

    That's not condescending at all. You do realize that creating an outline for every possible scenario for the sake of comparing them, weather feasible or not, would help to put in order their priorities? Doing nothing has an estimated cost of x/day. Scenario A has an estimated cost of x(1+.5)/day...

    News Is there a BP Plan available for the public?

    I know, but I'm not talking about a new fact per article or per news broadcast. I'm talking about the literal blueprint to fixing the problem. I know they don't really have a plan, but they should at least have an outline with estimated variables for all possible solutions and comparisons...

    News Is there a BP Plan available for the public?

    I was wondering if any of you have stumbled across the real general blueprint for fixing the oil disaster. All I've been able to find is articles about it, but I'm talking about an outline that they may currently be following. The closest thing to what I mean would be what one would write...

    Fixing the Gulf oil spill problem

    actually that seems like a solution if they could connect the tanker's volume to the shoreline and have it quarantined (and barrelled) as quickly as possible. Maybe even divide the locations that on the shoreline so it doesn't gush uncontrollably to one location.

    Fixing the Gulf oil spill problem

    I haven't been able to find any information on the architecture of the well nor am I a physics wiz, but would it be a possible solution at least temporarily to use a 'car crushing' like mechanism to seal the well and then worry about capping it 'correctly' later? It just seems like if they had...
