  1. First, I have no evidence to prove this. It it simply another explanation for the mass extinction 65 million yest ago. As strange as it may sound, my idea is that humans killed the dinosaurs. People still debate that time travel is impossible. However, physics have already proved that you can bend time. What I am suggesting is that in the future, assuming we have the technology for time travel, a mad scientist will want to answer the question: What really killed the dinosaurs? This scientist will travel aprroximately 65 million years to into the past to find out. The scientist could have a cold, and the cold could go to a dinosaur at the lower end of the food chain. The animals at the top of the food chain will eat the animals lower than them, and the cold could spread throughout the entire animal poulation. Most likely, the animals will not be immune to the cold, and will die off. =================== Before you judge how stupid this thread is, just consider it. Remember, it's possible...
  2. Stick with us here at SFN and you'll learn a lot. When I came in here back in November of last year, I also knew absolutely nothing about what anyone was talking about . But after days of searching the forum, a lot of things suddenly clicked on .
  3. Conratulations 5614, AzurePheonix, IMM, yourdad, and Klaynos.
  4. I hope people can start to see an effect with every problem we've caused, instead of waiting until it gets so bad that nothing can be done about it.
  5. I would right now if I was old enough to drive. I'm trying to convince my dad to buy one, and he was going to until he found out that the high price in gas still isn't equal to the price of a hybrid car over a normal car. Fortunately, in a few years that will all change.
  6. I saw a documentary recently about light pollution. It's very sad. Not only for the animals, but also for people like you and me. About five years ago, I would go out and look at the stars in hopes of seeing a meteorite or something like that. Now, the city I live in has grown so rapidly that I can scarcely see the even the brightest stars from my backyard.
  7. Well, there is evidence, just very little. For example, when do ice ages occur? About every 10,000 years. Are we do for another one soon? Well, we may be in one right now (see this thread), but factories began to release greenhouse gases causing the warmth.
  8. My friend came up to me today and said that to me. Only it was more like: "Hey Zach, I just realized that if a clock stops it is right three times a day," and I had to correct him... Anyway, back on subject. Unfortunately, we will not have the final answer for another 300 to 400 years. But isn't there enough evidence to prove that humans are at least the main reason?
  9. I take back some of what I said. I think that patenting inventions like the jet airplane is fine. But patenting something like the jet engine is not. Why? Because there's a chance you will need that engine for something else that could turn out to be very important.
  10. SFN Home Page. Like that? All you have to do type the words you want, highlight them, and then click the hyperlink button. Type in the URL, click OK and you're all set. Anyway, I think that patenting things like inventions is perfectly fine, but things like you mentioned? That may hold back some great discoveries, or even the education of others. IMO, it is stupid and should not be like this.
  11. Whoa! I might buy some too, as long as the fish are as healthy as normal zebra fish. It's amazing how we are using genetic engineering.
  12. I knew about it, in fact I use it often. That was just a stupid question that I didn't think over much. Sorry.
  13. Is there a way that all of the posts since your last visit can be viewed? That would be very helpful to many people looking for something new to post.
  14. What? Wikipedia always helps me, and you said you wanted a reference, so I gave you Wikipedia. The encyclopedia answered that.
  15. What about just speculations then? Or will it still cause problems?
  16. I would like the posts in the pseudoscience and metaphysics forum and the speculations forum also to be on the home page. The reason? Both are in areas of science, and they each get a lot of posts. Maybe new members will stay with us for more than a few days if they learn about all of the discussion in these two forums. Please consider, thanks.
  17. I'm not entirely sure what you're asking, but try this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethylene
  18. http://livescience.com/forcesofnature/060316_hurricane_sst.html A study recently confirmed that warmer ocean temperatures are in fact making hurricanes stronger. And some of you doubted me...
  19. Won't this article get deleted because it's spam?
