EVERYBODY is a chief pony wrangler today lol I can see mine, but I cant see yours INow.

I LIKE my red name But alas, Im the only one that can see my red. And the pony wrangler thing too...I think...

and the last horse...er...pony crosses the finish line. Congratulations

April Fool's Day thing, i would suppose. Along with the change to "pseudoscience forums"...

1. If youve been around any girls in your life, you know as well as I do that they dont go aruond talking about how hot they are and what big boobs they have...even the pretty stupid ones arent that stupid. 2. Its just weird to go along with it, thats why.

Youre correct. I yield the fact that the Pope was incredibly stupid in his speech. But hopefully you see my point as well. And he probably should have said the second thing you suggested.

Abstinence WOULD work, and thus, is one option, albeit not a viable one. So, yes, condoms would help solve the problem, but complete abstinence would eradicate it. But it won't work, just as idealized communism isn't applicable by human standards. I personally don't care for this pope, so I wouldnt mind him being replaced. I just can't believe how everyone is misconstruing his words...

...you guys know this is a dude pretending to be a girl right? He might as well have a picture of an Adams Apple as an avatar.

c'mon people...he's the pope. You don't expect him to toss condoms from a train like they were candy do you? He believes (and correctly) that abstinence is the key to solving the epidemic. While this is true, we ALL know that that will never happen. So, condoms WOULD be the next best thing. But as mentioned earlier, he is the pope, and he will not advocate premarital, recreational sex. That's the whole gist of what he was saying, he just didnt articulate it very well.

The sqrt(-1) is i my friend, as you stated in the first part of your question. Your logic is somewhat off base, but it's good that you are thinking. Keep it up.

Yes, I agree with the scary moderator...you seem to be confused in your terminology... Simulations must be calibrated to real world conditions before they are even, in the slightest, admissible as an argument to violate the laws of motion.

How can anitmatter pass through you continually? It is naturally ocurring on Earth?

At the risk of sounding completely ignorant and naive, I was wondering if you all could tell me some more about anitmatter. I understand that there are elementary particles such as positrons and anitprotons and that they could conceivably form "anithydrogen" (or maybe they already have?)...but what are these particles exactly? Are they made of the same "material" that regular matter is? As far as I know, the touching of matter and antimatter yields a reaction called "annihalation", right? Is this in any way similar to nuetralization reactions in chemistry, or sound waves of opposing "polarities" canceling each other out? And if this reaction (I keep calling it a reaction because thats what I think it is, Im not sure though, that might not be the correct term) is so violent and occurs whenever matter contacts anitmatter, how could they possible keep ANY antimatter on Earth? Are they "quarantined" in a vaccuum? And if they are, I thought true vaccuums were unsustainable on Earth? If not, are they incredibly fleeting particles? How are they studied since they would seem to cause problems in conventional laboratory setups? I know that I have a lot of questions, but any information and/or links are greatly appreciated Thanks!

Just for the record, yes, I am quite capable of preparing a conventional resume. But due to the fact it is for my father, I am unaware of how to construct this particular resume... Also, I ask here because I assume you people have a good deal of experience applying for jobs and what-not. Well, the reason I'm having trouble is that my father has been self employed for the last 30 years...he's been a farmer, and Im not sure if you would put that in the jobs section...would you? How would you go about describing his job? And he can only do basic stuff with the computer...but he is an incredibly intelligent man...It took me only an hour to explain differentiation and integration to him, and he was able to help me with my calc homework lol How would you put that in a reume without conveying an air of pretention? He also used to work 120 hour weeks...3 hours of sleep at night...I see that as a positive quality, but does it have a place in a resume? It's a job at a Power Plant, and he does have an A.S. in Electronics (30 years ago, that was pretty good lol). Could you all give me some advice on how to construct his resume? Thanks for any and all help!

You're a genius lol And yes, "pull my finger" has got nothing on this lol

yes, my book assigns the numerical data of .46(for meta) and .53(for para) for CF3...and so ,yes, according to what you wrote, this is incorrect in certain terms. But nobody has bothered to follow through on this discrepancy? I find that...odd, don't you? But thanks for the excellent info!

Well, that asnwers the part about naturally occuring materials...but what is the limit of the density the object can have and exist on earth, synthetic or organic. And how the heck did this become about nuclear sub-shielding?

Yes, I am very much interested I just...I'm not good at reading very advanced stuff...like the kind you would find in published articles...by no means am I restricted to layman's terms, but I'm still not far enough along to read science journals and understand them.

actually, no, unfortunately our library is of sub-par quality. Might you have a link to some of his online resources? We've only briefly touched on the physical aspects of chemistry. And yes, he is an excellent professor.

Acutally, I'm just in the second semseter of Organic Chemistry...our teacher likes to ask us really "intellectually stimulating" questions, so that we might apply all of these rules we are learning...you should see the compounds we have to use Huckel's Rule on lol...

Ok, I know, because my book says so lol, that a Triflouromethly (CF3) group is "meta directing" in electrophilic aromatic substitution...but I don't know WHY If anyone could help me out, that would be great... And its supposed to be "deactivating" right? and not "activating"? Or do I have this mixed up? I would actually like to learn this for future reference, so info is greatly appreciated, even if its not directly linked to this question Thanks for the help!

Have they not done experimental studies to see which is more dense? Or do the published figures vary lab to lab?

lol wow Ive read it...I didnt think anyone would take that seriously....but there are things called OPINIONS that people have...even on established scientific fact. Thats what I was searching for. Run along now, theres a good boy.

im currently boycotting all search engines lol why exert unnecessary energy when you all can just tell me?

What is osmium? Is it synthetic? A naturally ocurring substance? Organic or inorganic?
