lol:D

 

If you don't mind my being so curious, I was wondering...

is there a characteristic about quarks that make you like a specific one? I just guessed on the poll, by choosing "strange"

I like Charm, it has a bit of an apple taste to it....

I thought the flavours were up down charm and peppermint

 

I went for top. I figure that if I had more top quarks me gf would complain less about me being underweight

Go charm!

clearly strange quarks rule

Poor down quarks, no one voted for them

I'm going for charm! lol

hehe, this was in stargate once:

 

Jack: Hey, could you finish this phrase: up, down, charmed, (7-letter word)

DJ: Strange

Jack: Yeah, thanks for trying

DJ: No, the answer is--::hung up on::

Top obviously. Is it probably the large top quark mass which initiates electroweak symmetry breaking.

I chose strange too only because he isn't always there....It will be interesting to hear why we chose what we did.

I chose strange because strangelets are awesome

So why is everyone picking strange? (Other than because is is 'awesome'....)

I cant beleive I am the only one to choose down, that quark is down with it dude.

 

How did these names originate btw?

I voted bottom, `cos it sounds Rude

 

besides, we Brits always support the underdog.

Down pwns you all. :-D

I chose up quark because in my chemistry class we had to do a project on the quark that we get and i was stuck with up. I do see that there are 8 votes (so far) on "What's a quark? (fool)."

 

So here is a link that might help the "fools".
