ptorrone writes "The New York Times had a great story about Dr. Mark Whittle, a professor of astronomy at the University of Virginia who has taken the cosmic background radiation of the universe and made a series of sounds. The folks over at Engadget made the sounds available in MP3s so you can listen to them on your computer, iPod or whatever. Also, If you'd like to read more about Dr. Mark Whittle's work visit his site, there are a lot of presentations and information regarding Big Bang Acoustics."

I'd have a retort for this, except I'm white and my cable package doesn't include UPN or BET - sorry!

5) Black holes (the most extreme form of gravity) are the same thing as a woman's memory nothing _ever_ escapes.

I've never heard of a selective black hole before. Ever notice that a woman's memory suddenly fails her when you point out a past mistake? :)
