It is interesting in discussing history, we had an alternitive atomic bombing plan that was discussed, that being, dropping the atomic bomb on uninhabited islands to show what would happen to populated areas. Japan did not surrender after the bombs were dropped, they surrendered after we assured them there emperor could hold a figurehead position that would give japan a saving face from complete surrender (one of Mcarthur's smartest decisions to save both or one of the countries from further imense bloodshed), with out this the extreme radical military personal would have fought to the death. Actually if we would of given Japan the "emperor stays as a figurehead" consession beforehand (they asked for it but we wanted complete surrender, unconditional) they might of surrendered before the A bombs were (needed to be) dropped. Please excuse my spelling where needed.
that the energy created in the center of the sun takes a million years to reach the surface of the sun. Could the process of solar flares be this complex or is there a seperate weather system in or on the sun's surface? My guess is the several layers of the sun play a part with the surface the majority of changes needed for a flare,then there is gravity,metallic helium(correct me on this if needed),a pound or two of liqid plasma. Or is it just the transfer of the energy to empty space that creates these storms(I like this idea), I would like to say the solar storm(s) made me smarter but I have to stop now, any thoughts?
It was either a science fiction writer or a math proff who asked his son what to call 1x10 followed by a hundred zeros, his reply was "googol" Well I just looked it up in the dictionary and the term is credited to to American Mathematician Edward Kasner (1878-1955) but I did read about him asking his son (he may of been younger 5-6), and his son should have credit, like the 11 year old in this post.
there was a television interview with Mr.Walker some time ago and he talked about the availability of goverment surplus equipment he bought for cents on the dollars, military and space programs, pumps, motors, nozzles, machined exotic metals, he literaly bought close to a million dollars(or more) of "stuff" for a few thousand. It is great that these kind of garage sales are available, he must of been like a little kid when he saw what was available and it probably helped a great deal in the $ department. Perhaps he now has more custom made equipment but it would of been a great shot in the arm to get started. The interview showed him with his parts, his(a) capsule, helmet, and a big smile, he knew he was going for a rocket ride.
Perhaps the texas longhorn has low body fat, they have not been used for beef stock for a while but from the pictures I have seen they do not seem fat. They were popular for being able to graze on scare vegetation. That is about all I know about cow variety other than angus which is what I cook at work.
lets leave the Fred's out of your analogy, it happens to be my name. Try Mr.X. I do not think a court record uses names to prove a point unless they have proof of their participation. I do want to express a little humor here but somewhere someone is thinking "I know a guy named Fred I wonder what he is doing. I better call the cops or spread dome rumors about him". Also, the police can pull you into any situation they want, any time, any where, take everyting you have and ruin your life over any situation they want, this is the power they have and the only thing preventing them from abusing this power is the Bill Of Rights and the first Ten Admendments.
You may no tbe guilty but you could get into a whole lot of shit. If the guy's house is being watched or bugged (from the outside) there will be photos and recordings of you. Saying "I need money for tuition" has probably been said somewhere to inply purchasing crack If the friend you sent over buts crack and gets arrested he is goin to try to get out of it and will probably talk in any way, such as saying yo sent him over there. The police can investigate you and even red flag you to the IRS. No you did not do anything illegal but it may cost you 20-30 grand to prove it.
Man has always looked up and down (and for you jokers "around and around")I believe space has its advanages, the vaccuum of space is(for sake of argument) constant so once is is "delt" with there is just increasing speed, decreasing speed, floating around, avoiding a few micrometors, and trying to not go nuts on long voyages. It is expensive. The ocean is closer but constantly increasing water pressure (while decending) held back deep exploration for centuries. If you are searching the ocean botton and tethered to the surface weather is a big handicap. Compared to space ships getting to the moon in three days(gathering data the whole way) a submersable would have a very tough time to get across the ocean in the same time so dealing with the water density determins a lot(how fast oceans are explored by a manned vessel). Space exploration gained a lot of tech. from WW II, submarines did not change much, could go a little faster and deeper but still a tin can. Just some thoughts.
I know what you are refering to but I can not place the date, The 1700's come to mind but I am not sure. You mignt try British weather records on google.
"It has been estimated that at least 21 cubic Km (appr. 11 cubic mile) was ejected from the eruption of Krakatoa and that at least 1 cubic mile of the finer material was blown to a height of about 17 miles (27 Km). The volcanic dust blown into the upper atmosphere was carried several times around the earth by air currents. This volcanic dust veil not only created the spectacular atmospheric effects described previously but acted also as a solar radiation filter, reducing the amount of sunlight reaching the surface of the earth. In the year following the eruption, global temperatures were lowered by as much as 1.2 degree Centigrade on the average. Weather patterns continued to be chaotic for years and there were major climatological changes which affected the entire globe.
Temperatures did not return to normal until five years later, in 1888".
This article dates the eruption at August 26 1883 and was written by "The Tsuami Page"-Dr.George Pararas-Carayannis. Google found
That was said to cause convulsions in kids, lots of flashing, colors. Probably primitive to these glasses but there would need ot be a visual(or brain reaction) test to see who can use these. Those prone to seizures might have a problem.
Jupiter can wait until next week, we have a space storm tommorrow. 4xlayer tin-foil hats are called for and if you forget them, well, after tommorrow you may not remember why you needed them, so... whatever... carry on.
You caught that one perfectly, I tip my hat to you. I do find it interesting that when Anti-Bush statements are made the hardliners want the statement perpetrators killed, not once but three or four times also most of if not all of them are ac,s. I am not going to defend president Carter too much (I do not need the crap replys but I do like him) but it is interesting to know that the eight marines killed in the aborted rescue attempt of the Iranian hostages were the only goverment employees to lose their lives in his four years.
Opposition does not mean closed mindedness, actually Opposition can lead to a discussion that leads to an improvement or working the kinks out. IF you want to reply on/. and get touchy with any opposition you recieve then why...? Being an A.C. doesent help your solidify your argument much either. so fish or cut bait.
and he will...wait is that a laser, I want a laser, Give a military man a laser and he will...wait is that a black enameled human energy sucker, I want a black enameled human energy sucker..not much more to say except a lot of etceteras.//"This song starts out kinda slow then fizzles alltogether" Neil Young
Yes you are correct, I believe the ships that make the most of this are made of aluminum and the sacrificial metal is zinc. I do not know the specifics with iron ships; what they use for the sacrificial metal, perhaps the useful life of an iron (steel) ship is over before any serious damage is done, the only real(economical) way to stop iron rust (in sea water) is with paint . With wooden ships and nails I think it(electrical current) is overcome by using stainless steel nails.
of a donut, after reading your first sentence I thought of a frog with a pointy snout and a hole in the middle, but alas after looking at the photo I see you ment a jelly (er,frog gut)filled donut. It may not seen like a big deal to you but think of the frog, now discovered, cataloged, probably have a number painted on it,s back and won't be able to get away to pee with out spotlights every where and people thinking he/she has a hole in his/her middle. So Mr./Ms CBS staff do not take your responsibility to your viewers/readers lightly, a donut is not just a donut! You have a lot(more) to learn before (you can confidently) entering the relm of/.
The melting of glaciers is only a part of the effect of(supposed) global warming and the rise of the sea level is fairly unimportant when compared to related issues of fresh water entering the worlds oceans. Slalinty levels (might)control the migration and breeding grounds of the first part of the oceans food chain, plankton, krill. If X millions of tons of (more) fresh water enter say an area of 1000 sq miles the effect can be dramatic. I do not think we know the full story of what can happen but something will (happen). It gets to a pretty important thing in the life of the human race, Food, from the ocean in this case. The global warming issue on the land comes down to rain, too much or too little, encroaching deserts and how long it will take to adapt and the life style that will be the result. The melting glaciers (and they are) is only part of a sign that it is not too late to do something becausse we may survive but we may not be too happy with the results and we all know what happens when the human race is not happy
Solar satellites are a good idea, the problem is the phrase "beam down energy" scientist are still trying to figure what the beam could be, microwaves could work but there would be a problem of how big the recieving point needs to be and the distribution of a high concentration of energy. people have talked about a runaway beam frying large swaths of land. A possible better idea that I like is to use ground based solar power to crack water and store the hydrogen for later use or pump water up into a manmade reservoir to power a hydroelectric turbine when needed ( I believe this is used in L.A.).

I believe the year with out summer was when the island Krakatoa (sp?) blew it top. My guess is it was 1886.
I am curious if your radio works now? if not probably the radio, if it came back on after a while it might be related to the storm.

Perhaps I did make a typo, I ment that the moon would make the perfect ISS, and the rail gun would be positioned on the moon.
Perhaps they will and their space ship can be called the volkswagon!
