In physics, a wormhole is a hypothetical topological feature of spacetime that is essentially a 'shortcut' through space and time. A wormhole has at least two mouths which are connected to a single throat. If the wormhole is traversable, matter can 'travel' from one mouth to the other by passing through the throat. While there is no observational evidence for wormholes, spacetimes containing wormholes are known to be valid solutions in general relativity.
The term wormhole was coined by the American theoretical physicist John Wheeler in 1957. However, according to Coleman and Korte, p.199 of 'Hermann Weyl's Raum - Zeit - Materie and a General Introduction to His Scientific Work', Hermann Weyl invented the idea of wormholes in 1921 in connection with his analysis of mass in terms of electromagnetic field energy. ral relativity with quantum mechanics, would still allow them. Most known solutions of general relativity which allow for traversable wormholes require the existence of exotic matter, a theoretical substance which has negative energy density. However, it has not been mathematically proven that this is an absolute requirement for traversable wormholes, nor has it been established that exotic matter cannot exist.
In March 2005, Amos Ori envisioned a wormhole which allows time travel, does not re
If something goes wrong, there are but three scapegoats: GW (teh prez) fer bein stoopid, GW (the climate phenomonon) because it's actually happening, you know, or your mother (the bachelor's wife) for having you.
Here in America, I find more people try to reason around the bible than people of other faiths do with their holy books. For example, does not the bible forbid divorce unless a mate has been unfaithful? it has been said that more americans than ever are religious, and yet the divorce rate in this country is staggering. more people belive in the bible (supposedly) and people regularly flout its precepts.
This will be discredited when you Americans learn that Brahma and Vishnu did the nasty and out came the world. Since Brahma has a super long pecker, though, he harmed vishnu in the process and caused some rectal bleeding, and when that coagulated the dinosaurs were born. Then vishnu and brahma called up Saraswati and had a threesome. Since that's not her thing, she refused to come but later hooked up with some indian chick named Breena. That's how the birdlike dinosaurs came about. See, it's really quite simple.
And, dude, what's up with your website? Decrypt this, using subject:
When I eat white castle or a steak and a good oatmeal stout, I produce some mean bio-fuel. I don't think it makes anyone hungry, though. Unless if by hungry you mean projectile vomiting.
"Yes, they're targeting the smart phone market, but Apple will rely on their own tools for the time being - there's no need to let developers mess it up." This is seriously the best and funniest fanboy twaddle I've read in a while, and I read/. a lot. Thanks. Let me go puke now.
"Last time I read the BBC's charter, maximising profit was not one of their objectives. Making culture available to the greatest number of people possible was."
Uh huh. And Microsoft's objective is to produce the worlds greatest software!
The whole "M$ iz a monopolise" thing is getting a bit trite, don't you think? So is the whole "DRM iz evul" schtick. Just because its badly implemented by many doesn't mean it's bad. It just means that you won't get everything you want for free. Gues what? That's life. What, is having to pay for groceries infringing on some percieved right to free food?
BBC will choose the best provider for it's technology. If that's MSFT, then great! If not, then so be it. DRM can be a good thing, especially for the BBC. They can maximize their profite by using DRM properly.
Oh, stop your kvetching. It's not like Linux even has an equivalent.
If it does, please educate me. We'll try it out to see how well it works. I'll be waiting for your reply but I won't hold my breath. I'll just be modded down for this.
If it's not better than why do corporations as well as home users PAY for Windows instead of using Linux for free? Heck, I'll bet you couldn't even pay people to use Linux instead of Windows.
You have no answers other than your stupid FSF rhetoric.
Re Firefox vs IE, which version of IE? How is Firefox better? Its not. IE7 is the best browser out there. More scripting options (javascript, activeX, AND VBScript), phishing filter, AND better integration with Office, Media Player, etc. Firefox doesn't even come close.
"If you don't care, why are you here? " Because I enjy rubbing your nose in my towering intellect.
"Bill Gates pays you too much." Maybe, but I am getting paid. Call me when you move out of your mother's basement and get a real job. There are too many BIFFs like you around here.
"Once they add ODF support to be considered for a competition for a state contract" Please restate that as "Once monkeys fly out of the collective butt of the FSF". Both scenarios share the same likelyhood.
"Damned if they do, damned if they don't." Nice fantasy. You know nothing. Next!
"If they don't they are likely to find themselves in a support nightmare (I saved it with Word in Illinois, why won't it open in Word when I'm in New York?), or a legal nightmare (So you're telling me I can't sell this version of Office to someone from out of state? What about interstate commerce laws?)." Nice melodrama. Here on earth, people just use Office.
"It's this kind of arrogance that will cost M$ everything."
Wait, let the profundity of that statement sink in...
hahahahahahahahahahhahahaa!!!!!!!!!!!!
There.
Cost us what? Cause/. pseudo-geeks to stop buying our stuff? You freaks don't know anything. If you were actually the target market, then maybe someone would care. Anyone here own a f500 corporation? Anyone? Bueller? *crickets* Yeah, didn't think so. So please, hone your forum debating skillz here, while Microsoft makes money.
"M$" is here to stay, whether you like it or not. Most people don't care, and most people just buy our stuff. Why? Because it's better. It's easier. It's more interoperable. It's better quality. Peter Quinn needs to get a job and stop whining.
I disagree. OO.org is nice, but it's a value alternative to Office. Corporations are where the money is, and that's where Microsoft makes a killing. What, do you think Office is incapable of supporting ODF or something? That can be changed quite fast.
I work on the Live Meeting team, and we are constantly working on communication/productivity tools (sharepoint anyone?). Microsoft has their feet in many arenas, and that will pay off.
Agreed. Code is quite valuable. Why do you think many companies keep their source closed? Because that's where the secrets of the technology lie. Calling code not valuable is like calling scientific data not valuable just because most people prefer to read the end result, the report or article. The data is very important, even if you never see it directly.
"I could browse at 0 or 1, but I find the occasional gem that some guy with crap karma will post that gets overlooked by mods"
Well, while we're here in bad-karma-land, the slashdot slum, let me remind you that you are a faggot. Don't forget it. Your mother and I play hide-the-sausage every morning, and I must say she really likes the wienersnitzel.
"But I suppose it makes sence" grate splelinng. I gess i have to rite so u kan reed it now? hows taht? bitter?
Ok, I know it's almost lights out in the trailer park because the generator is almost out of gas, so talk to you later, sluggo! Buh-bye!
That's real nice. Someone wants to be a journalist.
Every day, I see a post on slashdot from some pseudo-intellectual spouting off talking points heard on MTV. You never had any rights, and pretending like you once did is just a bunch of stupid posturing. Besides, if you really want to change things, whining about it here won't get it done.
Every day, more and more people listen to this drivel and actually believe it. People like you. People like, well, not people like me, but you get the idea.
Slashdot Mirror
I'm just checking out the lameness filter. What's YOUR excuse for the twaddle that YOU normally type?
what's REALLY awesome, is that YOU got modded down. I didn't. Good job, /. mods! Competent as always!
"It's PROBABLY people!"
No, it IS people! Your eating people!
Are you really a cock?

I am of the Bahai faith, so I don't know much about yours.
If you don't believe your own holy book, why not find a new religion? Or maybe just stop trying and do what you feel is right?
I am not kidding, Americans are a bunch of lemmings.
