  1. it has been a year or so since i last posted on this forum so i will reintroduce myself. my favorite subjects are black holes and quantum theory. hopefully I will be able to practice my argumentation skills and get better at it... or at least learn something new. hello everyone!
  2. now that's what a thread should look like... i am embarassed nowby my own laziness... oh, yea. we are all nuts politicians included. here is my proof. http://www.vocativ.com/culture/society/ouija-board-product-reviews/.
  3. so you want a car like that?
  4. you want as much mass of your bearings to not be moving as possible. the over all weight needs to be as low as possible for the bike.
  5. yup. you want the heavy stuff not rotating.
  6. you will want as much of the working mass as you can get on the axle instead of the wheel. also tires rule this kingdom so you will want razor thin tires with a high thread count. drag can be reduced by smoothing sharp edges and replacing raised surfaces with flush mounting. the majority of drag comes from the rider so a smooth contoured shell with a small cross section is your best bet.
  7. if your magnetic bearings are strong enough to suspend the wheel around the axle, then yes to a degree. however, the biggest speed killer for a bike is the drag coefficient. the question is whether or not you can keep down your rotational mass.
  8. philosophy opens the people to questions tha science can answer. this is how science was born itself. once geometry was a thing caught in a philosopher's stone.
  9. hmm... this seems to be a question for a philosopher.
  10. Joy, Guilt, Anger,Love by Giovanni Frazzetto starting out pretty good.
  11. great! you picked the right forum. welcome to the neighborhood.
  12. Quantum field theory in a nutshell by A. Zee. ....I need better math skills but that's ok. I'm working on that too.
  13. hi all, my name is davidivad. i love to take things apart and put them back together. however, i often end up with extra fasteners. my over all conclusion is that mother nature is conservative....
  14. for anyone who does not believe psycology is a science, i recommend that they take a shopping trip. good money is paid to organize products, decide how they look, and how they make their purchases. even the latest in functional design of products can benefit from psychology.
