Why are so many people replying to this article confusing cloning with stem cell research (read deep enough... you'll see it)?? Saying that they go hand in hand is like saying that cutting someones heart out with a spoon with the intent to kill is like open heart surgery preformed by doctors... you need to look more into the damn subject.
parts of covad have already gone out of business. A company that I designed a website for was using BlueStar ADSL... they went under and tried to switch them over to just plain ol' Covad, but they stopped and switched to another company and got SDSL...::droooll::
Lets take 400nm (a nice blue, my favorite color).0000004m or.0004mm
i hope im doin this right....0004mm goes into 1mm 10000 times.
multiply that by 4 and you get 40000 1/4 wavelengths..... i think, heh.
Correct me if my math is wrong.
Would you use the mirror for combing your hair or something??? It's history.... significant history. It should be brought back to earth and put in a museum.
The evidence is far from "perfect", for it assumes the very thing it's trying to prove.
Actually Carbon Dating brings enough evidence to prove that the earth is far older than 4000 or 6000 years. For anyone unfamiliar with it, carbon dating deals with the half-life of the C14 element. Current methods allow us to date a specific creature back around 50,000 years, far past the dates told by the Bible. Dating with other radioactive isotopes such as uranium and potassium-40. Dating this way measures the ratio of the daughter and parent decay chains. This method allows us to date back billions of years. The probibility of this form of dating being off by billions of years is... well... near impossible. This method is not assuming the very thing it's trying to prove... they didn't assume that the earth was 14-16 (depends on who you're asking) billion years old and use that as a reference point. (Caution: Obvious statement ahead) They used the decay rates of known isotopes and calculated backwards from the present...it's impossible to say that the accuracy of mathematics can have an 90% error rate. It may not be perfect, but it's accuracy is perfect enough to prove the dates from the Bible wrong.
Look at the human population. The blacks, whites, asians, indians... even this group of people who lived in the mountains and evolved to fit their ecosystem. Everybody has evolved to fit their habitat. Evolution is most definately happening.... Were humans around during the dinosaur era? After the extinction there wasn't anything left bigger than a mouse... and now here we are.
If you ever ask a highly recognisable person for their view on a certian subject, most would lie just to keep their reputation.... It's like asking people if they have a fettish for being sh*t on... sure there's people out there who do, but what moron would admit to it?
Well... First off I think that the person above who said that light is always the same had a pretty set 1-track mind.... and I hate people like that. Especially because you think god created everything and that's just the way it is. *Everything* is perfect because god made it that way....Bull. I'm not athiest. I believe in god strongly, but you need to stop hiding from the unknown behind that belief. God may have created the universe, but what mortal man made it the rule that the universe cannot change at all? What if god intended it to be this way? Man (or woman for the damn PC people out there) has no right to speculate on the motivation or the plannings of 'god's creations. People like you insist that the earth is only around 4 thousand years old (according to the bible) when we have perfect evidence that its age is in the billions. People like you started the Crusades that killed hundreds of people just because they thought differently. People like you killed and put into jail and killed the great thinkers of the past. This new theory about the universe is not the danger... your own set disposition is what dangers the progress of science and of our society in whole...

I thought it was more around a milimeter or less of innacuracy... either way, it was tested.
You can never be to careful with all the nuts runnin around...... maybe they even visit slashdot once in a while....
My critical thinking skills aren't related the current state of education today... the educational system in america barely teaches me anything...
