    Not in most cases of ships getting a hole. Just because they were silly and sideswiped an iceberg you have to get all bitchy about it...

    does they prove the universe can't be real?

    As aside, I'm kind of old so there is this question that has been kind of bothering me about Justin Bieber. Is he a girlie looking guy, or an ugly lesbian? just curious

    Titanic most certainly was compartmentalized but the walls only went somewhat above the water line. great for holes under or near waterline that weren't wider than four compartments, that 300 foot hole kind of pooped their party though. they should have hit that iceberg head on instead of turning to port.

    No it is far inferior, failure means plummeting. Helicopter or quad copter engine failure at least leaves possible controlled descent as option, a chance to survive

    It's a death trap far more dangerous than helicopter. A helicopter doesn't drop like rock if engine fails

    numbers are just constructs of the human mind; reality is independent of them even if we can make useful models of reality with numbers.

    if you want to call those that seek scientific information about the universe nutters go ahead; if you want to jerk off at the end of life of successful monumental project go ahead, you're just being a jerk-off troll.

    kepler already did its job and from backlog of data which is still being processed we'll know percentages of what types of stars have what kinds of planets, distributions of rocky and gaseous planets, percent planets in habitable zone and also gas giants in habitable zone.

    The agenda driven nonsense of the IPCC is not science, their dire predictions have not come to pass and they backpedal on them constantly. Just as example for those of you with attention span of a gnat, they claimed "global warming will cause more hurricanes"

    And look at Al Gore, a religious figure with no understanding of climate science; pushing an agenda that makes him money as he hypocritically lives with the carbon footprint of 25+ families.
