  1. What loophole do you mean exactly?

      As a new member you are only allowed 5 posts in the first 24 hours. You have managed 8 so far. Congrats

  2. I just find it very strange that we can measure relativity through atomic clocks and then people automatically assume that we'd age differently because of speed just because the clocks move differently when they speed. I just can't make that mental jump. It makes no sense to me that ageing must be dependent upon a clock, or that just because a clock slows under certain conditions that the ageing process would slow too.

      Well I am sorry but thats just what you have to accept. 

      StringJunky said it best: "Time is what clocks measure. A clock can be anything that has a rate of change, so an aging person can be a clock."

  3. Hey, I can't seem to post anything new on the thread I started...I guess there's some posting restrictions on new members.

    Anyhow, what is it about clock rate that would make people age differently? Couldn't aging be independent of clock rate? I'm sure there's no proof that age follows clock rate. A clock is just a measuring device.

    So, just because relativity can be measured by a clock has little to do with aging, as far as I can tell.

      Yes there is a 5 post limit for new members. It expires 24 hours after your membership began and your profile says that was 17 hours ago. So just be patient for 7 more hours.

      I must say it was clever of you to find a loophole I would never have thought of it.:)

  4. Nancy is home, I got her settled in, the dogs are ecstatic, and I am very glad to have her home.  She is not allowed to move from one place to another without me hovering over her but she'll get used to it!

      Good to hear! Two years after my mom had her knee replaced I complimented her doc on such a good job. He said no thats on her, she listened. Seven years and that knee is still working fine. I hope Nancy will do fine. Sounds like she has plenty of attention. :)

  8. Oh no. Fred Johnson has the proto-molecule.

      Yeah I agree the books are always better but I don't have the time to read the 8 or 9 books in the expanse series right now so I'll stick to the show. Big Stephen King fan here and I recommend the gunslinger series. It's much more sci-fi than horror. The first movie comes in August. I have yet to see an even decent SK adaption so I am holding my breath.

      Lol

      Everyone has the proto-molecule.
