R, I have re-read your response, trying not to be blinded by your smart alecky insults. You spent some time on it, and perhaps some if it is even informative. I am guessing the above part is. Does this mean: Sting theory is in its infancy. Whether it will turn out to be the grand...

That was kind of a joke, Adrian. Do you know the answer to my question or not?

Very interesting. Toy cars and airplanes. Hmmm. No engine. No windows. Now, I get it. Very interesting. I am sure no one could do better. "The bulk." Hmmm. Nobody (except me) cares what the bulk is made of or whether it really inflates. Very interesting. Thanks a lot.

I am not mathmatician and know little of string theory. But I am looking for God and I hear those of you who do know string theory may be hot on his trail. Years ago, when Hubble was still only a promise we were told it would allow us to see back in time nearly to the big bang. My concern...

Thanks. I had not thought of the lesser amount of gravity at the higher altitude. Unfortunately, that oversight made you miss the point I was trying to understand. I have usually read the the ground-based twin will be the older one when they rejoin, but a time or two I read that each twin...

I found this exhaustive thread in archives because the question interests me. I grew tired of the differences of opinion that confused me. I would like to pose the question a little differently. Two twins are called Earthbound and Spacestation, each is wearing perfectly accurate...

I am developing a rubbery serpentine wall as a highway median barrier and I need to know the tensile strength necessary to hold against a 4400 lb pickup moving 62.5 mph. Using an excel spreadsheet and iterations, I subtract the momentum of the wall from that of the pickup at 2 foot intervals...
