well you'll need to download it again to get the final version. might as well do it that day. though i think the servers will generally be maxed out.

i'm still on beta 5. 1/ its in the ubuntu hardy repos, 2/ it hasn't crashed on me yet.

i spy a source of energy in the form of a giant nuclear fireball. quite subtle, many people would miss it.

i'm pledged, also using FF3 just now.

you aren't being asked the impossible. you are being asked what would be expected if you were to submit anything for even moderate reveiw. i guarantee that if you submitted a paper with the level of reasoning and referencing that we have seen from you that the paper wouldn't even get considered.

err do you mean 'how can i tell if my operating system is 32-bit or 64-bit?' if you don't know then it is very likely you are using 32-bit(unless you use a mac) i have no idea how to find the info on a windows PC but on a unix-like system just typ 'uname -a' into the CLI

my laptop can calculate it.(okay it takes friggin ages but it'll do it)

you can buy machine upgradable to 8GB. i've seen a few. (though they are still sold with a 32-bit OS for some reason)

an ISBN would be good too. that would help us more than the title.

well, if you can find a way to fuse nuclei without huge temperatures and pressures then no it isn't suicide. there may be possible ways of doing this. i'll wait till there have been results from other labs confirming their results before i decide whether they are talking rubbish.

thats because the field between the plates is still more or less uniform. you can usually treat the plates as infinite.

when you throw a stone parallel to the ground, it covers a fair distance. the faster you throw it the further it goes before it hits, a satellite in orbit is just thrown so fast that the earth curves downwards at the same rate the satellite falls at so it keeps missing the ground. if you watch a shuttle launch you'll see that it doesn't spend a whole lot of time going straight up (couple of seconds really) and that before it gets out of sight it will already be travelling at quite a speed sideways.

i'd call them a scientist. the point still stands, for instance, in my course we design chemical plants. i can draw up some pretty detailed diagrams of a plant or subplant (say a reactor vessel) but i wouldn't be able to build it. while i can do basic welding and metal shaping, my skills would not be up to scratch to actually construct the thing. but i could tell someone experienced in building reactors exactly how to build it.

bacteria can get viruses 'bacteriophages' is the term for them i think.

yeah, the blue part is where computer models suggest there should be clumps of darkmatter IIRC

it was origionally going to be a linux distro. then microsoft barged in.

it would work if you could cut the power first. not cutting it leads to the very real chance of electrocution as salt water is a good conductor. not cutting the power also leads to the release of chlorine gas, hydrogen gas and oxygen gas. none of these are going to help extinguish a fire and chlorine is quite toxic. stick to powder and CO2

poly atomic ions are simply molecules that have a charge. examples are: OH- H3O+ NO3- NH4+ and so on. it is best if you memorise them as poly atomic ions pop up everywhere.

yes it does occur at groundlevel. the problem with conducting the experiment at ground level is that you can't make a sensitive enough gyroscope without adding in systems that will add error. basically any result you got would have horrible error levels. in microgravity suddenly you can get the errors smaller than the values you are trying to measure. it actually works out cheaper to send up a satellite than build something that has to cope with the vibrations and changing feilds of earth.

if fermi lab managed 33TeV, why can't i find any reference to it on their site? at all. surely reaching more than twice as high as the LHC is supposed to get would be a stupendous achievement that they would want to show off(particle physicists tend to have severe 'mines bigger than yours' issues). i can't find any references to it appart from on forums in threads that are decidedly dodgy.

yeah, fermilabs own site says only 1Tev. you pulled that number out from deep inside your rectum and you know it. Refference: http://www.fnal.gov/pub/inquiring/physics/accelerators/chainaccel.html

it doesn't matter, if it has turned into droplets it will be at room temperature. we do not know what room temperature is. it could very well be above the required temperature.

as water is a liquid, it is fairly incompressible. the temperature difference will be minimal. also, if it is exiting with a lot higher pressure it will tend to disperse into a spray, this will result in the liquid ending up at room temperature as it will have a high heat transfer area.

iNow, varying the flowrate is a much better option than varying the length of pipe. you can't vary the length of pipe on the fly to cope with fluctuations in input temperature can you?
