    Hi Martin. Sorry to bother you. Thanks again for straightening me out. May I ask a favor? If you don't want to do it, it's ok. In light of my recent post from space.com on BH spin approaching c .... A hypothetical question. If the BH was not limited to c ( because space is broken completely ) would it be very difficult to calculate the potential range of spin for that same black hole I asked you about in the 'singularity' post? I am asking you on PM, because I didn't really want to clutter up that post I should have stayed out of to begin with ... New year going well? Regards ... James PS: I noticed on another rather obscure forum you go by the name Marshall? Is that right? Anyway, you have shown a great deal of courtesy to me, and I appreciate it very much.

    Hi, I read a couple of your messages and noticed you appear to be experienceing similar symptoms to myself. How has the problem developed?

    Well, if you want to know what has been going on, look up a member by the name of New Science, he seems to have a grudge against standard Cosmology. He's in the pseudoscience section right now.... Please help us deal with him :(

    mooeypoo, I've been away from the internet for a few days. It was fun but I'm looking forward to seeing what has been going on.

    I read about parkour a while ago. I think in the New Yorker magazine [url]http://www.newyorker.com/reporting/2007/04/16/070416fa_fact_wilkinson[/url] Just now I looked up the Wikipedia article [url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parkour[/url] certain things about the thought and attitudes underlying parkour impress me I expect it can also be graceful an beautiful to watch---if not too scary. Here is the Wikipedia article on CVN carriers. [url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nimitz_class_aircraft_carrier[/url] It says that the CVN-77 is expected to be commissioned in late 2008 It says two Westinghouse A4W reactors, with the turbines developing a total of 260,000 ship horsepower. A rough estimate would be 194 Megawatts. Sufficient for a mediumsize city's electric power requirements, I should say. Beautiful ships.

    Working a lot. Not as much as before, but I'm on a ship now. I'm at the PCU George H W Bush. In a few weeks I move from the Reactor Training division to the Reactor Mechanical division. I created a user group on SFN: [url]http://www.scienceforums.net/forum/group.php?groupid=9[/url] I recently got into doing parkour, so I go out and do that in my free time when I'm not online.

    well, my wife is sewing handmade pillowcases as a wedding present for her nephew and his wife (a rancher's daughter who can fly an airplane, ride cattledrive, and run a haybaler machine---interesting girl.) we think handmade pillowcases will be appreciated as much as something expensive. I'm following quantum gravity research, conferences, publications as usual. Ashtekar just proved the Bousso entropy bound conjecture in Loop Cosmology. It is conjectured in other contexts but can be proved in the Loop context---an advance. A conference next week in Greece. Ashtekar and Loll will speak. The big conference is first week of July in the UK. Lots of activity right now. What's up with you?
