You are defining the sense of direction as a "sense"
This is a misnomer. We do indeed have only 5 senses. This means that we have 5 organs of perception. These are :
1.touch (skin)
2.smell (nose)
3.sight (eyes)
4.hearing (ears)
5.taste (tongue)
It qualifies as a "sense" if there is a unique perceptory organ associated with it. For example, taste is a sense because there are unique taste buds on the tongue that distinguish sweet from sour and so on.
The "sense" of direction or the "sense" of up and down is not a sense, it is just an intelligent inference based on information gathered by the 5 senses.
A lie would be being taught that evolution is not a fact and only a theory.(i lol every time at this).
Why do u need to cultivate the pulling force of the two plates in the first place?
One, there is no known way of doing this. And two,
if there were then we wouldn't need plates and stuff. Just hang an apple by a thread and use the force applied by gravity on the apple in your machine.
Infact the only known way to make use of pulling forces is action-reaction. if u push a surface, it pushes u back. Hence we have space rockets.
Let me answer your question and ONLY your question.
The Casimir effect is when 2 smooth conducting metal surfaces are very close together but not touching (nanometers apart) then they exhibit attraction to each other.
That's the effect. We DONT know why this occurs. Among popular unproven theories are the "too close for photon to fit, therefore vacuum" theory.
I agree that this makes most sense but it is not an accepted rational explanation why the law of inertia is being violated.
One thing is for sure , there are week nuclear forces involved at that infinitely small distance that become more powerful than large forces like gravity and friction.
What the researchers are trying to do is measure the forces at play that are prominent at the nuclear level. A device to measure these forces would revolutionize the field of nuclear forces..
Pluto will at some time be visible overhead at as high as +/- ~40.5 degrees (17+23.5) - which is surprisingly close to Chicago's latitude of ~41 degrees.
Maybe this is not such a huge coincidence that pluto would be visible better from IL than anywhere else on earth. It might be why pluto was discovered in IL in the first place.
1. A new application for this would be advertising..
+ Many creative advertising adventures can be accomplished by a flexible display. This is a good thing because that's where all the money is. Everyone advertises and pays money for it.(EVERYONE)
+ Great reduction in weight of the hardware. (Watch football on a 20" screen in your car. (Side effects may include death)
- prolly too expensive right now
- will see it overused on cnn soon

the bandwidth in China and India and most 3rd world countries is 1/1000 of what we get here in the US. (think downloads at 8kbps)
If that gets fixed someway somehow, its game over
In China, $1 is like a week's worth of lunch money.

solar power in space is a much better alternative that nuclear power.
It's much more efficient, cheaper and if the launch fails (which it does on occasion, columbia any1?) then we won't risk blowing a nuke
would be ironic if it we nuked ourselves dontcha think?
Pakistan is not a democracy. (thanks largely to a US supported dictator who was in power so long that political assassinations have become the norm.)

Yeah, it's nice to attack McAfee, but what is YOUR alternative?
Linux fix'd
