If you add equal and opposite momenta to each of the two virtual particles you've accomplished nothing. If you add more momentum to one than to the other (thereby propelling yourself) when they mutually annihilate some energy (and momentum) will be left over.
...times 2 times 2/3 times 300 million and you've got it.

Of course we still have the question of what it means to "consume" information, but hey, we're all "consumers", right?

You'll need to eat more.
And no, that isn't a joke. There is strong evolutionary pressure for nutritional efficiency. Carrying around muscles you don't need uses up calories you could have used to live through the drought. Not a problem now for most humans, but it really mattered for all animals until fairly recently.

Yes. The "Left" on the other hand, explains that the government is here to help you and needs to know all about you in order to give you the help it has determined that you need (whether you want it or not).

Has a Webcam in his bedroom, does he? I can find his medical records with a Google search? Everything he says at board meetings is published?
How does he know that all that "personal info" is real? I don't do "social networking" but it seems to me some might find it amusing to create an account with plausible but fake "personal info" and then "friend" away.

I just looked out the window. There are no aircars out there.
If you add equal and opposite momenta to each of the two virtual particles you've accomplished nothing. If you add more momentum to one than to the other (thereby propelling yourself) when they mutually annihilate some energy (and momentum) will be left over.
This isn't the future. There are no aircars.

No it doesn't.

Then why are you asking on Slashdot?

They are Free. If that doesn't matter to you don't bother to respond.

To prove that the Daily Mail will publish _anything_, even if it happens to be true?
Quite the contrary. It just brings the Russian navy in on the conspiracy.

49 years old, to be exact.

Citations, please.
And you really want ICANN to "yank" a domain just because somebody who claims to be a security expert says it contains "bad stuff"?

The ground also doesn't conduct heat very well.

You know all those "grain" silos out in the prairies? Fell for it, didn't you?

I see no reason you heavy users shouldn't pay more than I do.
I've been seeing dire warnings about the imminent collapse of our infrastructure for about forty years. I've quit holding my breath.

UFO-Norway Arkansas, on the other hand, has no organization devoted to UFOs and ranks far behind California and New York in number of reports.

You aren't making any sense.
