The story of the Native American should be considered fiction. It's a pun. SOH CAH TOA Soak a toe (ah?)

This is it, guys. PETA is now confirmed to be the new Catholic Church.

Good catch.

On the democrat side, I personally like Lawrence Lessig. It's a shame he only wants to be in there until he gets what he wants, then will quit his position as president.

Green energy for sure, because you know how conservatives are with global warming ;) Essentially, all conservatives would want to decrease government spending, especially when the country's in debt. I'm not sure whether the scale of the project would make a difference. They go by the belief...

Personally, what would keep me up at night the most is Socialism. I think losing government funding would be fine, and I really doubt Carson would be the only candidate to withdraw funding. Any real republican would withdraw funding because of their preference to Reagonomics over FDR New Deal...

Has nobody mentioned that when it comes to the topic of private-sector funding, conservatives prefer Reaganomics, less government involvement in the private sector, and a shrink in government spending as a whole? If science loses funding, I have a feeling it'll be more because of Reaganomics...

I realize that when physics enters the realm of the human body, it becomes more difficult compared to mechanical physics. What is the easiest calculation I could do to show that the video's numerical conclusion is wrong while still showing that the sword, if used in a real-life scenario, would...

But what or where exactly does the sword go wrong, and how can I illustrate that? I'm not at all disappointed that the sword will never work in real life - however, I am disappointed by the way he explained and erroneously shoved numbers into an equation. Or is it that because I took an...

Hello. So, I took a Physics course at a community college last Spring, and I sort of took a liking to it. I'm not sure I'll be active much, but here's my introduction.
