Nothing to see here folks. In fact, you may lock the thread if you like... It was a hypothetical that I was working with to arrive at a working number at 3:00am: the hypothetical "weight" of a PHOTON, not a PROTON. Like I said, "Frankenstein Project".

Upper and lower controls based on frequency and L/C resonance. This is a real Frankenstein project, so values are coming from everywhere.

I was looking for a frequency by calculating the wavelength, and I found the answer. However, I have no idea where I came up with one of the values! my notes say: wavelength = Planck Constant / (proton mass * velocity) My values: 1.9078e-21 m = 6.63e-034 / (2.81e-8 * 1.236e-5) The...

Yet, in your quote... And this isn't a "major attack"? Copernicus "led" the charge by writing the book. His friends got an audience with the Pope and his buddies, and they were interested in the theory. That's a pretty significant attack on Aristotle. That's why Copernicus is credited the...

You're right. I don't study evolutionary biology, so I've never heard the term. But I've heard of nonlinear equilibria being applied to society (checking wikipedia...here you go http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_equilibrium) which is all about society finding balance between it's independent...

My first forum experience a decade ago was for motorcycles (sport bikes). I joined because that forum didn't allow "squids" (squirrelly kids). They also didn't allow us to talk about engine oil, other than how to change it, because the topic always started a very technical argument. I wasn't...

Smack me with the largest fish in the ocean, eh? Too bad, because my favorite fish is...a duck!

When I joined the army in '88, all of our leaders were all Vietnam vets. When I joined, it was a "new army". The culture became more professional. The old Vietnam-era practices had long since been abandoned, and the guys who were not fit for service due to the lingering horrors of Vietnam were...

Combat vet here (Desert Storm, 1st Armor Div) I understand what morrobay is saying. However, there is a flaw in the argument being made. Yes, Operation Iraqi Freedom can easily be considered a huge mistake. But we could have gone up against "Hitler Jr" in the most justifiable war in history...

The Beatles Covered Metallica?? Here's a weird one... Did one of you guys build a time machine, because here's a video of the Beatles covering a song that was written over a decade after they actually performed it! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7mAht5X3Bhw

I come from a ridiculously dysfunctional family, so I see red flags all the time. They almost always amount to nothing, but I see them all the time. That's the only reason I mentioned co-dependency. But, if that's not an issue, then you have to follow your heart, and you'll have to have a talk...

No, your EMPLOYER will contact THEIR bank to move the decimal point over a couple of places in YOUR account before the transaction is final.

Yes, but... ...the correct way to say it is, "it is common for business owners and leaders of companies to show tendencies towards Obsessive Compulsive Personality Disorder." However, a couple of those "symptoms" are found in overachievers who are not in the least bit OCPD (#5 and #6). The...

No, because that's more related to social interaction. What I'm talking about is a physical process that is rooted in concepts like, "you can't discover quarks until you discover protons, and you can't discover protons until you discover an atom." That's NOT a nonlinear punctuated equalibria...

Alcoholics don't quit drinking by going back to the bar. If something isn't there anymore, the chances of it coming back are slim. More than likely, it'll turn into something that neither of you like, and the chances of it getting messy increase exponentially with every encounter. How do...
