  1. Like most human traits, a combination of genes would probably play apart. There is much controversy, however, whether or not politicians and gays want there condition be acknowledged as genetic. It would be treated as a "genetic disease." Becasue there genes would be variant from "normal." Politicians would have no choice but to allow gays have marriages. BEcasue this would be there constitutional right not to be discriminated against as haveing a "genetic disability."

    However what person would want something they consider their choice to be called a disease?

  2. My girlfriends uncle is gay, but you'd never be able to tell. I know a few guys who are pretty flamboyunt, some are amusing some are annoying. Which is just how I find most people. Why do we need a seperate catagory for gays. And why do politicians make such a big issue out of it. (which is how bush won the election btw)

  3. The curved upper surface of an aerofoil accelerates[/i'] the air passing over it, compared to the air passing underneath it. This results in relatively lower pressure above the foil than below it (lift).

     

    AKA Bernoulli's Principle

  4. I hope that you are performing your experiments under a fume hood and under the supervision of an experienced lab supervisor. Chemistry, although an experimental science, isn't a "hit & miss" science. I don't just walk into a lab and start playing. I need to have objectives, reagent tables, safety information, possible minor reactions/products, etc, etc, all thought out before I walk into the lab.

     

    I doubt they did :-( . You guys must have a pretty trusting school if they leave doors unlocked, without teachers inside. My school would never do that. And playing with chemicals. tsk, tsk. You should know better.

  5. I have a question about the physical interaction of objects (not physical properties, but forces that move thing), what do we call that?

     

    Do you mean the four fundemental forces? Natural Force, Gravitational Force, Applied Force, and Force of Friction.

     

    Also, what does the third law of motion (action-reaction) have to do with the earth, a wall, a floor, a table and moving through a medium (like air)?

     

    In what context?

  6. I think the fatty acids with the double bonds would melt at a lower temperature. Think of margraine versus oil. Margrine is hydrogenized oil. Meaning it has it's double bonds broken and relaced with hydrogen. The effect is that it stays solid at room temperature, while oil is a liquid. Therefore the molecules with double bonds should turn into liquids at lower temperatures.

     

    Is there a problem with this thinking?

  7. There are some internet connections that use sattelites...though I haven't heard too many good things about them.

     

    I personally have a dsl connection, and I'm quite happy with it. I recently made the switch from 56K. It's a bit faster but it's great to have a constant internet connection. It's a pain to have to dial up everytime you want to get online...it ties up the phones too.

  8. But I believe the question refered how would things be different if we evolved to have a lower body temperatures, not if our body temps changed right now. That's a completely different question.
