  1. Thanks I saw one he just said it was asthma. I don't seem to get any benefit from the sprays though.
  2. I used to control dreams to some extent but now I never seem to dream. I don't know if I just can't rememer then or what but years have passed with no dreams. I do have a problem in that as I begin to drift off I stop breathing and wake up gasping so I had wondered if my body had got used to only going so far under and not alowing me to go through rem into proper sleep. Any shrinks and doctors in here?
  3. As I have said in the theorys I put forward space expands from all points. The distance increases but the objects don't have to move for this to happen. But then I'm just a loony and as thales told me space don't expand that fast. By the way wheres Thales. Is he ok.?
  4. Its all about sales. If you don't advance technology, theres no reason for people to buy new apart from wear. The new stuff is usualy two steps ahead and sat on a shelf while the marketing department trys to convince everyone they need the previous models features. Then when everyone has those features they phase out the old stuff and get the next one off the shelf so you feel like everything you own is out of date again. I worked for one of the more expensive audio equipment manufactuers for a while and I saw this. You would not believe the difference in the tech between what they were pushing in the shops and what they had waiting around. What made me laugh was that they displayed some of the future stuff in the entrance hall so you could see the stuff you're about to buy was out of date before you bought it.
  5. 5614 Yes it would only go partialy round the corner. The distance covered on the corner would be dependant on the distance from the corner and the sweep angle. I think your supossed to work up to and maybe slightly round the corner and then reposition the device using your previous work as the datum point. The only other way to do it would be to use a mirror set at 45 degrees to the beam and then rotate the mirror on the same axis as the beam. This would produce a 360 degree line and project it on all walls at the same time. You would need it to be on a tripod in the center of the room on a two way swivel and have a two way bubble level to set it up. This would mean that as you worked you would have to avoid creating shadows in your work area and would always be at risk from veiwing the beam so I don't think they would make one like that apart from for industrial use maybe.
  6. Theres only one way to test this. Tazor a bad medium and see if it improves their powers. But realy you could try recreating the conditions couldn't you. ?
  7. People have used the ground as an antena to broadcast and recieve radio.
  8. I agree that it is a bit deceptive. But what advert isn't. Its like a tampon add where women think they will feel so good using it they'll want to go skating. It would work on internal corners though and even in small print it does say it must point at the corner. This is only possible for an external corner by supporting it on something in the middle of the room at the right height and aiming so the scan passes both sides of the corner. An internal corner would just need you to place it against the wall pointing towards the corner.
  9. Sorry again not a good explanation. Just for information the mirror in laser devices is not just a single reflective surface. It might be like a nut (as in nut and bolt with hex head) with highly polished exterior facets. The laser points at the nut and as it rotates each reflective surface passes through the beam at constantly varying angles causing the reflected beam to scan through its possible range and then jump back to the start and scan again. This gives the effect of drawing a laser line on the object in its path as the speed of the scan is so fast.
  10. The lazer may sweep rapidly side to side which would allow it to show the line along the wall but also along a wall at any angle. Think of it more like a torch with the lense painted black apart from a thin strip across the center. The light would apear as a line on both walls.
  11. I know exactly what you mean. My neighbours are a perfect example of this moronic behavior. I got a job four years ago as an engineer. It came with a car which made it look good but the money isn't. They became very unpleasant over time as I got pay rises and new cars etc and my wife who used to be friends with the women next door told her about it while walking to and from school. They got very jealous but would have looked a bit daft saying so. They instead decided that our dryer was very loud and was preventing them sleeping even when it wasn't on. They then had family and friends turning up causing bother started a slander campain with other people on the street tried frightening the kids everything they could think of.
  12. What of the energy required. If you changed something in the past that means a large amount of matter was not moved or was moved instead of staying put.
  13. I had thought about movement in space and the time distortion. What I ended up with was the thought about a single body like a pulsar for example. I it is rotating very fast and has a larger diameter then its center would be older than its surface. What does this mean for the reactions that occur within it.
  14. LOL. Seriously though, I thought that ys park had a build up of magma under it I forgot the term use for the type of eruption but very very bang. Its when instead of lava making its way through small passages to the surface it builds up in a cavity. There have been numerous measurements taken and the grounds of ys park are rising and swelling with magma and at some point it will go pop. :eek:ps What brought you to England if you don't mind me asking and aren't fed up with answering this question.
  15. How is yellow stone park doing does anyone know.
  16. Funny that I had a similar thought about ghosts being seen due to the part merging of two time co ordinates. I thought some sort of evidence of it might be recorded if it happened and, due to the lack of it, even accounting for the I don't want to sound nuts reluctance to report it I dissmissed it. There you go, just when you give up someone throws you a bone. On the subject of orbs I have seen some weird photos but most of the common stuff like on most haunted is just infrared bouncing off dust and hair in the air. I have security cameras with infrared lighting and you should see stuff glow when they get close to the light source.
  17. In newish cars there are two coils. The supply is switched btween them. Each coil gives two sparks at the same time. One spark is used for ignition and the other is wasted on the exhaust cycle of another cylinder.
  18. I think we should give in to all terrorism and then when its all screwed up become terrorists because they screwed it up and see how they like it.
  19. http://www.scienceforums.net/forums/showthread.php?goto=newpost&t=6206 Its just that some of it could be illegal or dangerous and some of that is in there. Edit to add Great thread I have enjoyed it a lot so I wish it to continue even if you have to start using disclaimers.
  20. Can you imagine the insurance premiums. I want to be pumped full of preservatives and then covered in resin which when set will hold me in a naked standing position making a rude gesture with an un naturaly large grin on my face. Then I want to be burried in remote forgotten corner of the planet with low geological activity and for the people that burried me to forget where I was burried. All that just so some future and enlightened speices evolved of man may un earth me one day and think what the.......
  21. Top of main list page and I was not refering to anyone inparticular. I was just drawing attention to it to be helpfull where I can.
  22. Not to spoil anybodys fun but read forum info by blike. You may get your bum smacked if your not carefull.
  23. Every day is a school day. I think these sound like they only sense rotation though or did I read it wrong.
