Why don't standard geological phenomena count? Tell me if I am wrong, but wasn't crystal growth/reproduction one of the theories for the origin of life?
Yes, the nuclear power supply is finit. And yes, the *known* reserves are only slated to last several decades. But the same is true for other metals, even for copper. When the demand goes up, corporations will put more effort into finding deposits. Until then, why? They are not going to make any money from it? And when we start having to use breeder reactors, well, at the current rate of energy consumption, we have enough to power the world for over a thousand years. And thats only with currently known resources!
Nuclear energy is more expensive than oil. But the fuel costs for nuclear energy make up a very very tiny portion of the costs.
And for the rest of us, it's still too slow. I want complete and instantaneous ( A few planks is good enough) energy release. And I want it *now* damnit!
I *was* hoping the completely nosensical statement I made would be pulled off as sarcasm, but I guess it wasn't. Unless what you posted was an equally obtuse sarcastic reply to my reply, in which case the irony of the system has made my brain explode. The fact that I have to post at 6 in the bloody morning, doesn't help either.
You know, theoretically, it might be possible to create a nanotuble-like structure with a radius of a visible length. The structures integrity with walls one atom thick casts some doubt into its lifespan, but it could be done. Maybe.
There's just one problem with this. How does the computer define the boundrary of the circle, when it uses a finite lengh pi. Unless you make the computer use the current value for lim --> pi, and just keeps recalculating the entire thing without eraseing any co-ords... Now we're cooking!
Well, there are particles in QM that have to be roatated a full 720 degrees to complete a full rotation.
Couldn't a probability of 2.0 be taken to mean that two atoms are going to be created using one atoms complete energy to create antimatter. One atom being the antimatter, and one being normal matter. When these two pieces of information meet, they anhilate each other and all the information about each other if their informations are completely equal.
I could be completely and utterly wrong, but I think that's what happens when they make antimatter.

THERE IS NO CENTRIFUGAL FORCE!!! ...will come back on your first phyics assignment.
mst3k was there silly wabbit.

Well, you got one thing right, you are *bait.
Pathetic.
Well, it might just be me, but I don't want to think about a "Threesome ... Shootout" but that's just me.
Well, it's not like that's a bad thing, is it?

Something else could have killed him, no?
Most poker games use more than a single deck you know...
I think it would have to be -9Redundant, +5underrated, +5 informative/insightful

Hey, it's easy to have a social life at 80+ hours a week. It just means that you don't sleep as much, is all.
I like how you replied to yourself there. If I had mod points, I probably wouldn't mod you.
And of course, the sarcasm is lost on the slashdot moderators...

I like your 100% efficient car!
Hey, I could take offence to that! There are some good things in sastatchewan. Like, um, abandoned warehouses! Those are always fun!
The best way to get quicker at math is to learn your hundreds times tables, to the 2 or 3 decimal, depending on how much your prof hates you.
Either that, or just take a minor in math.

Sure it can. It may be a very very very low density fire, but it would still be fire.
Well, yes, as in it will slowly anhilate your brain matter.
At least I think so/
Negative information would be refreshing and getting the page to begin loading, but never finishing.
quantum effects can happen classically, they are just extreamly unlikely to do so.
Now watch me superimpose through the wall.
