I can't see any other explanation for it. Just looked at amazon physics bestseller list. You'd expect stringy books to be way up there, parents buying Brian Greene for the boys, Lisa Randall for the girls. Or am I wrong? Wouldn't you expect that? I know a high school senior* who last year...

Now I'm starting to think perhaps a countertop combination convection oven/microwave might be good. Surely SOMEONE could make me a combination Teddy Ruxpin/convection oven. What would be more awesome than a singing bear that can cook a roast? :!) Things I've been told I'm NOT allowed to...

Hello everyone, new member here:smile:. My sister asked me this today - real-life physics at work! She's making Christmas pud & the instructions say it takes 8 hours to cook. However, her bowls are too small, so she's made two little ones instead, and she asked how long to allow to cook...

I normally don't care what I get for Christmas, but this year's was a very unexpected surprise. I got a Pickett N4-ES Vector Hyperbolic Dual Base Slide Rule. This is listed as having 34 scales, but that's a little deceiving. It has a 30 inch cube root scale (that's 3 scales), a 20 inch...

1. There are approximately two billion children (persons under 18) in the world. However, since Santa does not visit children of Muslim, Hindu, Jewish or Buddhist religions, this reduces the workload for Christmas night to 15% of the total, or 378 million (according to the Population...

Yay It's Christmas! Well, maybe not there yet, but here it is Christmas morning. Also if you wake up around "5:30 a.m. on Dec. 25th, steal a glance out the window on your way to the tree. The crescent moon will be gliding by the bright star Spica--a pretty close encounter. In some places the...

I'll start: maybe an xbox 360, 1 gig of ram, one of those cool new RC cars.

What do you people do at this time? Sure, there is the typical stereotype of a warm, jolly family sitting under the damn christmas tree. In my opinion, i think the truth is much less romanic. In my family, we never celebrited christmas. If there was any celebrition, it is more out of finding an...

So what are you going to give me for christmas? I know how much everyone around here enjoys my company and is looking for an opportunity to thank me. (I've told you that I'm abit skeptical. so I can't believe you unless you give me a valuable gift!o:) ) I especially want to know what Santa...

After many careful hours of painstaking research, I have compiled the most expansive physics experiment ever performed on Santa Claus. I hope you can give me the due credit when you show off your cute article. After all, it is my life, my thesis, my reason for existence on this blessed earth...

So, I finally returned to my office today, and sitting in front of the door is a BIG box. As I shove it into my office while getting my jacket off, I see it has tribdog's return address on it. He got me a BIG box of Legos for Christmas! :biggrin: :approve: Now you all don't have to listen...

ok, so my friends gave me the greatest Christmas gift ever - a physicist! But the darn instruction manual is all in Japanese! He's so adorable, and very interactive - more than I expected - but I have no idea how to care for him or what to feed him. Any suggestions? What do they like to eat...

That's all. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! Feliz Navidad y Feliz Año Nuevo! Joyeux Noël et nouvelle année heureuse! to all people.

Not being Christian. Seriously, it saves a lot of headaches. No shopping or family functions that need to be dealt with. I was at the mall today, and it seemed most of the shoppers there were in a terrible mood, many of them were rude and cranky. I even heard one woman cursing Christ...

I was shopping at amazon.com and found the perfect gift for those "hard to buy for" people. It's the "Phillips HeartStart Home Defribrillator - Because every minute counts" Be prepared for sudden cardiac arrest with the first heart defibrillator available for home use without a prescription...

I know that here in the US the Christmas season doesn't officially start until the day after Thanksgiving, but they were playing Christmas music at the store yesterday and had all of the Christmas stuff out and it got me in a Holiday mood. :biggrin: This has been around a few years...
