T thought the Japanese had some interesting Photo-voltaic panels that were quite efficient yet inexpensive to produce from silicon. Although they have yet to produce a truly efficient battery, but like honda decided to use diode-capacitors to retain power that may be the way to go. They have diode reactors to produce power. If the US government would allow the use of such devices in electric vehicles we would not have a hydro-carbon shortage. There are viable alternatives,but the regulatory agencies of the government will not permit usage,because they are in the back pockets of the oil industries.

There was a study done by the state of New York which came to the conclusion that its not what you know but who you know that determines whether you will get the job or not. Therefore you had better network really well or find other ways to make money.

I believe Roger Penrose attempted to answer that question. Its debated whether we are capable of even knowing the answer. Of course we are now proving Godel wrong. So perhaps its skys the limit.

What do you believe will be the next evolutionary step for the human race? I think it may follow this senario;the conscious inhabitants of this planet will be split into two species; humans and in their original and continuing bodies, and uploaded copies of dead humans. Add to that a third category, the independent minds built from the ground up by artificial intelligence programs. And perhaps a fourth; living, embodied humans in an extended condition of enhancement, plugged in (perhaps only some of the time) to the super-net.

If you create a computer simulation so realistic that it takes into account every possible atomic or molecular position and composition- will that sim be the same as the real thing? Leaving out a priori considerations or how powerful the computer would have to be to do such a thing would man finally be able to create anything in this universe? Is this universe a sim of a possible universe? If so imagine who is at the controls and who is writing the program.If you use every atom in the universe to comprise the computer then perhaps you can make a sim as described.

a nickel is 1/5 of a quarter.A nickel is 1/20 of a dollar.A dime is 1/10 of a dollar. You should keep the same progression. Sorry I just had to say this.

Can you create an IQ test that can accurately indicate a persons overall intelligence?

on the front the word Science with its definition to follow. on the back the word forum- show a modern day place to gather for science.

What is intelligent design? I thought evolution was a proven fact based on studies examining certain forms of bacteria that have short life spans. Evolutionary effects could be witnessed.

would you be willing to work at a ammo plant testing whether or not certain bombs explode properly? would this fall under the heading of spam?

And be very careful where you toss your mice.
