Greatest scientific contribution on Physics Forums?

[Loren Booda]

Up to the present, what concept formulated here on Physics Forums do you consider the most outstanding?

I'm sorry, Cyrus, but I don't think you're ready for that information yet.

 

[Cyrus]

.....damn. DENIED.

To quote Stewie Griffin, of Family Guy to one of his minions:

SG: "...and cut me some water!"
M: "Sir, we can't cut water"
SG: "Do I need to do all the thinking?! Freeze the water and then cut it!"

Quite obviously, our major contribution to science is in our research of fish slapping.

Dealing with the Girl's trouble?

Solving the plane on a treadmill fiasco.

"Sorry - no matches. Please try some different terms."
If it's a joke, it's a pretty good one.

Oh damn it :( It was suppose to link to all my posts :P

That guy doesn't know sh!t from shinola.

My version of string theory is on a 16-manifold where little invisible fish slap strings that cause them to vibrate in different ways.

In the area of Mathematics, I think PF has been instrumental in settling the 1 = .999... controversy.

While visiting my sister's restaurant one afternoon, one of the employees (carrying a stainless steel bucket) pulled me to the side and inquired how he might capture steam in his bucket? I replied "HUH"...and investigated further.

Apparently, someone had sent him across the street to McDonald's (with the bucket) to request they fill it with steam...to do some cleaning.

I looked around to make sure the joke wasn't on me (it wasn't)...so... I suggested he visit PF to seek assistance.

Did anyone help the young lad?

I captured the moon in a bucket of water once.

I think it's the discussions about jumping in a falling elevator.

 

[Hootenanny]

I think it was that wonderful debate on whether a photon has mass.

Well, photons in a bucket full of liquid helium below the superconducting critical temperature do have a mass. This bucket would very much look like filled with steam. Both statements are still valid in a falling elevator, at least until impact.

I have the impression,possibly mistaken,that some respondents are giving flippant answers to this important question.It is time to inject a serious note into the proceedings....hemisemidemiquaver.

Perhaps someone else remembers the reference. I recall that PF was cited in a published physics paper.

You may be thinking about this: http://arxiv.org/abs/gr-qc/0404086

I don't know if Alejandro submitted that to a journal.

Yeah you have to be pretty silly to believe that 1=0.999...

Before anyone takes me seriously, I am joking about.

You are so funny!

Until Zz pops in and notices that I crackpotedly claimed that superfluid Helium is superconductor.
