Let's Talk Big Bang and the Start of Our Universe! (Help Needed: My English is Basic, So Let's Make This Fun!)"Hello everyone!

I'm from Mongolia and super excited to chat with anyone who loves learning about the Big Bang and how our universe began. But honestly, my English is not perfect – it's a little bit broken sometimes.

So, please be patient if I make mistakes, and let's help each other out!

Hi Greg,

I've been checking those threads nearly every day for years.

Do you think I should check more often?

Hi @Greg Bernhardt

I think there is a typo in the Newcomer announcement. The other polls say they close on Jan 6th, but this one states Jan 3.

Hi Greg,

when I looked at the homework help forum today before logging in, it invited me to "recieve" help on homework questions. Could someone correct that spelling, as it might compromise our rep as expert scholars, or maybe confirm our rep as science geeks ?

In fact I am puzzled how such a misspelling could occur since when I tried to write this message, the spellchecker changed my misspelling twice to the correct one until I managed to preserve it.

thanks,

roy (mathwonk)

Sorry I just singed up today and can't help you with the form. I also can't help you with your first question as I am a retired aerospace test engineer with a BS degree in physics.

Hello Greg. I looked at this unanswered post on that Google Sheets list. It did not ask for an answer, and was just posting a proof. I suggest adding a column "Answer not needed" to the Google Sheets doc that we can mark if we find the post does not request or require an answer, to avoid multiple people looking at those posts.

Hi Greg,

I've sent you a PM.
Could you kindly check that?

Thanks,

Hi Greg,
I composed and sent an email via Physics Forums Comments to admin on July 3, 2021 asking about posting a few of my web pages containing solutions to undergraduate physics textbooks no longer used for associated courses. Please reply if you received the email.

Thanks,
chrisk

Hi Greg, you ask me to support the site. After I upgraded to gold member one keep deleteing my post without reasonable reasons. Is this a internet cheatting site or some admin's account be hacked?
Best wishes!

Tom Kunich · Apr 20, 2020

Why do you send me emails to come to the site if you will not give me permission to post? When people seem to know the answers and do not want to give them for homework reasons that is one thing but a question that even people who so plainly know what is going on do not understand how to answer a problem there's really no sense in my being here if I cannot comment. While approximately 1 Kw hits the ground why doesn't anyone plainly answer what becomes of it?

Chandller · Apr 12, 2020

Hi Greg, according to the green banner, we can receive a Gold Membership by sharing PF on our Facebook's. Once it has been shared, who should we speak with about obtaining the Gold membership?

Thank you,

Hello, what is noun of Energy which explained like E^2 = P^2.c^2 + m^2.c^4 ??? ( Joule, km/h etc.)

Sumo1002 · Nov 26, 2019

So how do I show people that gravity attracts in straight lines? By first getting it published in a scientific journal? That sounds like a dog chasing its tail. I had the same problem with an assistant philosophy professor who dismissed my argument regarding Descartes' "pilot on a ship" reference, where I showed that the Head of philosophy was 180 degrees wrong in his study guide. Fortunately the Head agreed with me.

Hi,

when I create the thread "Bohmian mechanics for instrumentalists and quantum measurement" i get in return an error message : Ooops : we can run into some problems. however it seems that thread has been created several times. He's the last one the right one.

Thank
Patrick

I finally found the "secret" order of PF trophy levels!

Erland · Nov 6, 2018

Yes, I would actually like to write an insight article, but I'm working so much nowadays that I get very little time to do that. By the same reason, I have very little time to post in general here, despite that I was made Science Advisor. I'm really sorry for that.

Delta2 · Nov 5, 2018

Hi Greg, could try to write an insight, for some time now I was thinking an insight about the fundamental theorem of calculus. But you got to tell me how exactly to write it, what latex editor or other tools should I install.

Suggestion for the Trophy list:
500 Nobel Prize
(500 points to a PF member who wins the Nobel Prize)

Hi Greg,
Aww shucks, I looked around and cannot find what a crossed out, a line strike through, across a user's name indicates. I think it means a peep that is no longer active for whatever reason?

Also I am getting old I guess....I could not find the PM function but I will! ;)

Thanks in advance. Sully, aka ES.

Looking at your Postings (Thanks for the post! This is an automated courtesy bump.), it appears you're becoming a robot. Still love you though. :)

Hi Greg, you suggested a while back I could prepare an "insights" on Gauss. If I did, how would I go about publishing it?

I have no idea why, but this thread is buggy. I'm assuming it added a bunch of subscripts to OP's post, as it did it to mine when I tried to fix his. I then tried to copy text (not subscripted text) and it nested subtext in my pasting. Quite frustrating, not necessarily pressing.

haruspex · Nov 26, 2014

The automated bump posts show in your name, but from the top level it's not obvious that it's such a post, as opposed to an answer to the OP. Could it be arranged that the auto-bump appears as by "autobump"?

DataGG · Nov 24, 2014

Greg, the links in the Table of Contents in ZapperZ's "So you want to be a physicist" thread are not working, at-least not for me.

Thanks, Greg. I'm not sure that I'm actually back, but I figured that the site is worth a 20-year subscription for the sake of its still-awesome educational value. Whether or not I participate will be determined by whether or not the political climate here (all USA—all the time) has changed since I left. I will assume so until sniped at again.

DataGG · Oct 14, 2014

You should probably create a sticky thread in the "New member zone", explaining what said zone is for.. Several people ask their first HW question there.

DataGG · Oct 10, 2014

Creating the "New member zone" seems to be attracting new people, or at the very least, more people are creating "new member posts". +1 on the decision Greg
