No time at all. The 5 men have already built it.
If if takes 5 men one hour to build a wall, how long does it take 10 men to build a similar (identical) wall?
1/2 hr (on average), if there's no football! ...
1 hr; the rest 5 men are goofing off

Plutonium not Available at O'Reilly Auto Parts. Please contact your local supplier.
Local supplier?! I don't I have a grocer nearby selling Plutonium :cry:

Don't worry - Michelson-Morley is consistent with the Lorentz ethernet. None of that density, none of that viscosity - just one extra postulate and you're in business!

Yeah, all these are easy to solve. I measured ##1/3 \,e^-## charges in a Millikan experiment at school. What's my excuse?

I do not understand this:

Is it:
  • a mockery of flat earthers?
  • an example of a chart?
  • a demonstration of derivatives?
  • a counterexample of argumentum a minori ad maius?
  • a counterexample of an induction?
  • a demonstration of the difference between a stable and an unstable equilibrium?
  • a home accident waiting to happen?
  • a lesson about right and wrong tools?
  • a quotation "Realize that everything connects to everything else.” Leonardo da Vinci ?
  • an analogue to the false quotation of "Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar." Sigmund Freud?

Google translate tells me "tempus clepta" means "a thief" in Latin. Maybe you meant to say Telefono movil?

Haha, you actually googled for it :oldbiggrin:. I tried to come up with a latin version of "time thief" (tempus = time, clepta = thief). Which mobile phones often are today.

If you don't mind I'll duck giving you a proper answer.

On a different topic, I just noticed a thread in the forum titled Looking for Good Books on Photosynthesis and I thought, that’s certainly something that worth shedding some light on.
