Medication can also play a role in obesity as well, like steroids for asthma, and especially anitpsychotic drugs. Zyprexa in particular is notorious for weight gain. Some people have gained a pound a day whlie on it!

Raiden from Mortal Kombat rocks. I like Glacius from Killer Instinct, too.

Dihydrogen monoxide? Isn't that another name for water?

During a moon mission, a few astronauts (maybe one was Buzz Aldron?) experienced little flashes of light, which turned out to be cosmic rays hitting the retina. If I find a link, I will post it, but I don't know if flashes of light from cosmic rays can happen here on Earth.

If radioactive material emits a blue glow under certain conditions, then what is this green glow that has always been associated with radioactivity?

I can't for the life of me understand why people want to live up to and after 100. Most people who are over eighty have numerous medical problems and have to take so many meds that bad interactions are common and could possibly kill them off sooner than otherwise. I mean, I thought that we are supposed to enjoy live, and quite frankly, taking a bunch of pills and dealing with diseases that develop as we age (arthritis, heart problems, etc.) doesn't sound like a lot of fun to me . I guess that is why research is trying to find ways to slow all the damage that aging causes. For now, though, eighty is good enough for me.

There is a special on the possibility of Yellowstone exploding coming on TV. I think it will be on the Science Channel or the National Geographic Channel. From what I've seen on the commercials, it looks like it will be good!

Oh! Duh! Don't know any Vulcan, but I do like Star Trek, my friend!
