  1. Re:What Does This Mean? on Pi Computed To 10 Trillion Digits · · Score: 1

    Tis more than gazing. At last, one can now go out singing "Yo, I know pi to 10 trillion places".

  2. DART's mission was a success on Spacecraft Crashes Into Satellite · · Score: 1

    Bull's Eye!

  3. Re:Stupidity on Harry Potter's 'Half Blood Prince' Leaked · · Score: 1

    Ridiculous indeed, however betting sites love this kind of thing.

    It always revolves around money!

  4. Re:No. 1 problem? on Lunar Dust: A Major Worry for Moon Visitors · · Score: 1

    Dude, you definitely need a sig :-P

  5. Re:Electron-Position anihilation on Black Holes 'Do Not Exist,' Contends Physicist · · Score: 1

    This is true only in the electron-positron rest frame. Everybody seems to forget the key variable, energy. For high enough energies in the center of mass, a plethora of particles can be produced from e+ e- annihilation, like quarks of different flavours (with hadrons as observables). Ever heard of the Large Electron Positron (LEP) collider at CERN?

  6. Entanglement beats the diffraction limit on The Home Parallel Universe Test · · Score: 2, Interesting
    "Entanglement beats the diffraction limit" would have been a better scientific story of the day. It has been published yesterday in the Nature scientific journal, and one can read the news on Physics Web.
    This is the real scientific deal, if you want to entanlge your mind with quantum mechanics and double slits experiments.

    I'm too lame to have a sig.

  7. Re:Benefitted the mankind? on Nobel Prize for Physics Announced · · Score: 1

    > When did Physics change from an empirical science into a theoretical one?

    More than a 100 years ago. Physics is not about just writing a formula on the blackboard, or only making a contraption with lots of buttons. It's about understanding nature and how it works, using various means, both theoretical and experimental.

    Lisa, in the house we obey the laws of thermodynamics!
