arsenic has no taste, smell, color. thats one reason why its so deadly. nobody knows its there. and gangrene smells like almonds. watch an austin powers movie.
Whats gonna worry me is when people either claim someone stole their star or there is commercials before movies about how wrong it is to make and sell pirated stars. And how do you know which star is yours anyway? Ooh Oooh dibs on that one.
Anyone else think of the line on talledega nights were ricky bobby talks about livin forever? "The guy didn't but its exciting that were trying things like that"
I do agree that nanotechnology is advancing rapidly and there is a good chance we will see it in our life time, I disagree with the statement about natural occurance. A great majority of the things we use every day are based on things found in nature. In fact, the whole basis of nanotechnology is on natural occuring molucules. Whether you belive in creation or evolution I think that it is wise not to start dogin on nature too much. Sure, science has made great advancements but at the same time they are baffiled by what nature does everyday. They have been trying for years to make artificial substances that are as proportionaly as strong as spider silk. They still can't do it. Or, look at the pyramids or the aztecs temples. All that stone was natural occuring and those buildings are still standing to this day. I'm not saying your wrong. What Im sayin is that I dont think we should be to quick to underestimate nature.
Its more like a glorified shed than a garage. But you cant say "I have proof in my glorified shed" Thats sounds worse than me saying that I have proof.
I agree. Anyone ever thought that maybe our buddy Stradivarius may have gone outside one day and went "that's a cool tree, i think ill make a violin out of it"? I doubt that he knew that the tree he used was going to be scientifically evaluated by scientist hundreds of years later and that it was a good density. Maybe he was just good at making violins?
Or for all you people into cover-ups and aliens here is a thought. Maybe because he was of some otherworldly origin he could tell which trees would sound the best using some type of super alien sense. Its true i swear. I have proof in my garage.
i totally agree. a lot of people don't realize that the wood of an electric guitar matters. they think its all in the pick ups, the electronics and distortion. true,they are not like acoustic guitars in that aspect. with acoustic guitars the sound is determined by the body shape and type. in some aspects the same is true with electric ones. les pauls are are heavy and kinda clunky but have amazing sound. jimmy page, slash, eric clapton, and a ton of others used les pauls and got amazing sound. its not all in the amps.
