Undefined: X * 0 = 5 --> 5/0 = X Indeterminate: X * 0 = 0 --> 0/0 = X There are many numbers that when multiplied by Zero equal Zero, but there is nothing that when multiplied by Zero that equals 5. This is how I generally view the difference anyways.

Either: A) it had no effect prior to or B) it would have made Adam and Eve immortal If B is true then God apparently didn't care and Adam and Eve just happened not to have already eaten from it. I don't see this as casting anyone in a good light, so I prefer A. As far as gaining a moral sense goes, I was really thinking in terms of metaphor not as a literal interpretation. If you want literal then God asked for good behavior from people lacking knowledge of good and evil. One can only hope that the whole thing was part of His Plan and that Adam and Eve weren't being punished but merely sent on their way as God intended from the start.

Marmite is yeast extract, the B12 is added in later. While I'm not sure on the bacteria's exact requirements herbivores harbor them as well as every other animal, so presumably the bacteria would be fine getting what they need from inorganic or plant sources. It is generally recycled internally, but inevitably our own bacteria manage to toss some of it out and the effects of a deficiency are nothing you want to test on yourself.

Bacteria are actually responsible for producing B12(cobalamin). Requires bacteria living in animals or artificially grown bacteria to produce it. I do find the generally used semi-artificial form(cyanocobalamin) somewhat dubious personally since it can leave trace amounts of cyanide. My own thoughts though, I'm sure I've had it already with no noticeable effects, especially considering the Veggie MRE's I've eaten(more candy on average).

They were apparently free to eat from it up to that point. Not recorded if they ever did or did not though, as far as I could tell. http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Genesis%202&version=NKJV I read this as God saying Man would instead live a finite time if they ate of the Tree of Knowledge. Not that they'll necessarily keel over then and there. Worst case He could just have an odd definition of the word "day" which we do have a good bit of evidence for. Even afterwards He didn't verbally forbid access to the Tree of Life. Possibly He realized the sheer contrariness of His creation by that point... Instead He assigned some pissed cherubim with a sword to keep the humans off His lawn.

I'd advise a good bit of reading rather than further speculation. If you really want an answer then "curvature of space-time" is the best one we have at present.

We'd probably be hosed honestly. Asteroid(s) - Dust - Famine - Riots At that point they are pretty much free to come in and do whatever they feel like. Personally if I were them I'd just launch aerial attacks. Decimate any remaining agriculture and then send in robot drones to scour the surface. Possibly they could work in some quasi-religious angle and convince survivors to come out of hiding, congregating to one location.

I look at it as a metaphor for obtaining the intelligence that allowed us to formulate moral values. Freedom from death is then blocked by a "sword" often used to represent War. If you want the literal, they were never forbidden to eat from the Tree of Life. Presumably it just did not have any effect until after they had eaten from the Tree of Knowledge.

You can put the link in your signature as well. Then all you need to do is post like normal. ie. BBC Horizon: 2010-2011: What Happened Before the Big Bang? Attempting to drive traffic using multiple posts on a discussion forum is generally seen in a negative light, regardless of the reason. Your signature, in contrast, is this nice little thing that follows every post you have ever made; where you can share a tastefully presented link to something that others may find of interest.

I'd recommend making a few lists. What sort of mechanical/computational problems am I having in my daily life? What could I make to help my friends or family? What could I make to help the environment? What do I use now that could be made better? Once you have your lists you can start brainstorming possible solutions. Feel free to use this site as a sounding board. Decent breadth of knowledge at your disposal.

Yeah, creep resistance is most likely reason. There are stainless steel ones out there too though. Likely just depends on the application and material costs. Been awhile since I looked Inconel up. I'm thinking it was for a similar reason too.

That should work. I don't want to comment on "correctness" as I don't know your teacher but I think most would consider that as thinking along the right lines.

I'm not sure "clever" is the word I'd use, but I've always found the pro-entropy Universe bringing about Life which increases the amount of entropy, to be thought provoking.

What will happen to the price of the other nuts people are substituting the Almonds with?

Could you please provide a link to their investigation?

Or to preserve their secrecy they declined the invitation.

We call this gravity defying force rocket exhaust. Ironically yes, there is a highly theoretical idea for a photon rocket, by and large however chemical rockets rule the day.

We are not going back, we are moving forwards. Energy from living trees, bacteria, wind, geothermal, tides, your own body, etc. Fusion :shrug: They are making progress, but we have plenty of new technologies to keep us busy until then. Green and Free Market thinking join in a happy marriage on the subject of waste reduction. What is green can be lucrative and what is profitable can be environmentally friendly. As for the Moon, a small sized base maybe. Any larger and you encounter a lot of practical issues and said issues get expensive fast. I'm thinking tourism as being more likely otherwise be a serious government boondoggle. Not that said boondoggles can't produce good results eventually but I'd expect it to be awhile before returns are seen.

LED's, light sensors. Some means of converting the output of your sensors into data for your computer. Here is something Arduino-based: http://www.costayannakis.com/uncategorized/arduino-based-li-fi-system/ I'm sure there are a bunch of other projects out there. Main question is how complex you want to make it.

I was thinking you could apply this to cosmic expansion. You could prove it is impossible to traverse between two points, with the distance increasing faster than you can travel. Naturally your assumptions would need to remain valid, which is probably the biggest stumbling block here.

I think you are talking about bookmarklets or their big brother equivalents(Greasemonkey, Tampermonkey). JavaScript injection typically refers to having your code run by someone without their permission or knowledge. Can have a lot of fun with this, but so too can the bad guys. I did make a Userscript(Greasemonkey) that did almost exactly what you've posted above. Local storage is another fun one to play with, along with passing messages between tabs. Most of my stuff is more for game improvements though. The only actual bookmarklets I have, I made for rapid equipment of game items. ie. javascript:adoptThing(309,%20false);adoptThing(318,%20false);adoptThing(302,%20false);adoptThing(534,%20false);adoptThing(363,%20false);adoptThing(348,%20false); Best way, I think, if you just want something quick, without spending alot of time mucking about with the site's innards.

If it is perpetual why are you readjusting it?

From what I've read it took awhile to get the gun to the point it was possible to fire(without risk). I know the field is always advancing so, the time required may have gone down since I last looked.

It really isn't that black and white. Organic has issues of its own. You really have to weigh the benefits and drawbacks for yourself instead of believing the marketing put out. Butter has trans fats. Should we process them out to make it safer? Is the risk of food poisoning from tainted meat worth the risk of not irradiating it? How about cooking, it produces carcinogens; should it be regulated? How long is too long in the name of food preservation when people are going hungry? Are we okay with decreased yields from using more natural practices? Is the increased resource usage and associated pollution worth it? I don't think any of these questions have a simple yes or no answer, but I do think society needs to take a hard look at things. Back to the topic at hand, most numbers I'm seeing suggest tobacco sales only represented less than 2% of their total profit. Looks like a simple means of generating positive publicity for them without making a significant sacrifice. Yeah it is good and all and maybe we'll get a few more drug store chains onboard, but most the cigarette sales weren't taking place in them in the first place. Small win, maybe influencing larger sellers down the line.

For the most part you can get rid of any 'noise' with filters and different encoding/error detection methods. For microwave transmission we reflect them off the troposphere for over the horizon. Signal just degrades when you reflect it off something.
