  1. Why is Einstein's Theory of Relativity not a Law of Relativity ? I hope the answer to this is fact based enough not to be speculative , thus keeping at bay the wrath of the higher powers that be .
  2. Is 1 + 1 + 1 = 3 ? and are there alternative answers ? like for instance 2.99999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999991
  3. Imatfaal says , Hal - are you just trolling cos you are way off base No .
  4. Definitions are there . I understand them . The future of binary logic and electrodynamics will make many changes but the past can't be changed .
  5. Is Klaynos a Puppet ? Klaynos , maybe you could take the time to read what is here ! You have defragmented a conversation that is totally relevant to the original posters questioning . These questions and answers have resulted from questions and answers which were relevant , so they are also relevant .
  6. JillSwift , This is what you supplied to our conversation , as a definition of a Theory , I don't disagree , I am not changing definitions to fit my needs , 1. a coherent group of general propositions used as principles of explanation for a class of phenomena: Einstein's theory of relativity. It is how these words are interpreted that matters . A proposition is a proposal which is proposed to fit a set of circumstances . It is itself a theory . Unproven !
  7. Any thoughts for the community ?
  8. JillSwift , you say , In science, a theory is something that explains facts. Thus, a theory can not be a theory unless there is evidence to explain. A theory does not explain facts . A fact explains theories . A theory can be a theory with no evidence to support it . I can have a theory that my cup of tea will stay warm forever and it doesn't matter if i have evidence on one side or the other . My theory is that my cup of tea will stay warm forever . The fact is that it won't . Some supporting evidence might include Newton's law of cooling to show my theory that my cup of tea will stay warm forever is wrong . A Tripolation , As for the subject of guessing , I don't have confidence in computers . They are an accident waiting to happen .
  9. Belief in chemistry , physics and math requires faith and a lot of what is physics , chemistry and math has no evidence , it is theory . Does this make them religions ? Does this make belief in ghost's and spirits a science ?
  10. Hopefully you will experience the good ghosts and not the bad ghosts . Also , I don't know why this thread is in religion , when it could just as much be at home in theoretical physics .
  11. Here I will define what my view is to clear up any confusion . Radioactivity is the spontaneous disintegration of unstable nuclei with the emission of one or more types of radiation . I learned that at 12 years of age and have always thought that . Radiation is what has been emitted ( radiated ) and this radiation is radioactive ( a property of radiation ) . From the point of view of safety , I would hope I don't influence some of the nuclear engineers who have a look around here now and again , causing a big bang in the process . I am only the half educated fool in a world full of even bigger fools . The term ' radioactivity ' is also applied to radio receiver activity . This is when a radio receiver senses radiation . There are multiple meanings for terms .

    Exam Problem

    I had a look at this problem and I think you're correct . But why is edit: e^x + e^-x near the end of you're post ?
  13. Hi Mooeypoo , Keep well !
  14. The issue , Swansont , is whether a person can be born with a cancer deformity , they can !
  15. I watch with interest and shouldn't branch off to god knows where . I always make relevant posts and if a person does not understand why I think they are relevant I can explain my point of view further .
  16. I know of at least one area of land that contains approximately 50 million people and sometimes they like to play the ' we are in Europe card ' and other times they like to play the ' them and us card ' .
  17. I think a definition of what ' Europe ' is ? , must first be made .
  18. What about a study of the poisoning effects of household cleaning chemicals , on children , who think that ' Lemon ' and ' Coconut ' , for example , might just taste delicious and they can't tell the difference . You'd be taking on the chemical giants , the CORPORATIONS !
  19. Can I also ask how ph of soil can be measured without using anything other than what can be found around a house ?
  20. Swansont , You say , Cancer ≠ born with deformities 25 years down the road . We're going to have to differ on that . For example , I think a lump on a persons brain is a deformity . The probability is that you can find a source that tells you it isn't and I'll find a source that says it is . I live far from Japan and traces of radioactive material are being found in the sea . We already have a nuclear plant near to us dumping things on purpose and accidentally and the sum of the parts equals the total . They've been doing it since the 1950's . Naturally occuring radioactive gases and a little uranium can also be sensed and then there is Chernobyl's (1986) after effects . There are rumours that little people in big steel tubes are also floating around with nuclear engines . The odd fishing trawler disappears now and again and it's not fish they are catching . On the issue of a cleanup I will say this . Where is the material going to go ? Will it go into thousands of steel drums for 1000 years before it can be opened ? That's low level radioactive waste . Tell me any different and I won't agree . Who is going to pay for it ? Nobody is likely to clean the environment for free . What is cleaned up will be put in a big hole in the ground and forgotten about ....... 2037 ....... 2071 ........ 2120 ....... 2166 ....... 2190 ....... 2240 ......... 2310 ......... 2326 ......... 2350 ........... 2400 ........ 2435 .............. 2478 .............. 2511 ...............
  21. Swansont , I will probably die indirectly from cancer , maybe the final thing to get me will be the flu for 2 weeks . The doctors ask , " Do you have a family history of ............... etc ? " because cancer has hereditary risks . So , I base my thinking on what the doctor says . Little Boy and Fat Man went to Japan 65 years ago . Cancer is still killing people from Hiroshima and Nagasaki and the hereditary effects will kill some of their children . Again , my logic extends from what the doctor says . Radioactive meat is being found in European countries because of the Soviet accident of Chernobyl . These animals were not even alive then . Finally , http://nuclear-news.info/2010/01/02/low-level-radiation-and-birth-deformities/
  22. I see Vera has some nice orange diamonds . I've seen some before in blue .
  23. Lemur , I have perfectly good information about radiation and the radioactivity that goes with it . What exactly would you like to know ? Forget about danger levels lemur . I'll tell you how many nuclear power stations have had explosions in my life , so far , 2 ! There are so many earthquakes in Japan that they are not even making the news now . News networks are already losing interest . The problem is the Nuclear industry . We would be better off making electricity from sunlight and wind .
