wow. this must be one of the first instances of godwins law giving birth to a thread instead of ending it.

so you are saying that your theory is self contradictory? well thats a good way to get it chucked in the bin.

don't worry i'm just making sure everyone keeps the facts straight as things get ultrapointless ultrafast when the get twisted whether it is intentional or not.

if the pressure varies by several hundred bar in his area then yes, pressure could play a role

your thermometer is obviously broken or you relied on the average taken from a weather report, just because it is 40F at a monitoring station does not mean it is 40F where you are at that moment. also, use centigrade more people understand it and it is only really th USA that uses it now. it is a rather antiquated system.

which is driven by the gasses that would otherwise be used to generate the force normally produced by a pulse jet. so your going to have mechanical losses from there and your not going to be getting all of that energy back. sooo... in effect, you are adding weight, complexity and mechanical losses to an already ineficient engine and expecting to get a greater performance?

actually, i just said that you can only go in one direction(your origional direction) at different rates. or at least implied that anyway. anti-matter can be envisioned as normal matter travelling backwards in time(scientificly, not popularized travel in time). what athiest said about the lightcones is what reality behaves like.

i would hardly call tesla the greatest. definitely one of the most well known though. anyway, what you have there is a logical fallacy called 'arguement from authority' just because someone you revere with respect says something does not mean that it is actually true.

but you can't go back in time. nowhere does it allow that(that would also violate several other laws that also have to be obeyed). but you can change the rate at which you move through time. no one would contend this as we have seen it happen experimentally. and it does not violate causality. there is nothing silly about it it if you look at what is actually allowed and what would require impossible conditions to be allowed.

dude, it is called a monarchy. the royal family is a remenent of the time when britain was a feudal state. the parliament is elected and they are the ones that run the country.

okay, dude, when relativity says time is just a dimension of space-time it does NOT mean that objects can arbitrarily jump around the timeline like in some cheesy 60's scifi movie. it also does not say that we have any freedom of movement at all in the time dimension. what it does say, is that we are moving along the time axis at some speed that is limited by c and is subject to length contraction. meaning, thefaster you go in the spacial dimensions, the slower you progress through time(outside observers will see your clocks going slow) i think you have a major misunderstanding of relativity and are using the popularised view of time travel most often depicted in movies and such with what a scientist would reffer to as time travel. so i'll define them here for you in general terms movie time-travel: jumping to arbitrary point in time and space from a different arbitrary point in time and space(may be accompanied by a swirly tunnel full of clocks) scientific time-travel: the rate at which time is passing. so, you are time-travelling just now with a rate of 1 second per second. that is if you take the refference second to be from your frame.to an observer going by at 0.9c then you would be going at 0.5(or there abouts) seconds per second wrt the observer.

pfft wasn't happy for me. i spent a good chunk of the day hugging the toilet and i hadn't even gorged myself on a mixture of monkeynuts and candy.

why does that just look like an ultra innefficient IC engine. i think you'd be better off using that to power a propellor rather than using any jet effect you get out of it.

if i had the time and money i would probably go pursue a degree aeronautical engineering. Planes+chemistry = ubercoolness. i'd also get a pilots liscence to go along with that.

the ideal gas laws are incredibly useful and are used wuite a bit in the real world. especially for high temperature/low pressure processes.

no it's not oversimplified at all. if it is then part of my project in uni last year should have failed miserably. just give it a few classes and you'll be wishing it were back to being that simple.

don't see what is wrong with 1/T and 1/P seems quite reasonable. it is usually something like that in nearly all cases(if you have multicomponent mixtures variable pressures AND temperatures then it gets a bit(HA!) more complicated. i take it you have just been introduced to these equations? basing that on the fact you were surprised by the results.

i think you lose the ability to see it with your virginity because when i was good at spotting the virgin, i was a virgin too. maybe it is just because i have a different opinion on who is capable of getting laid now that i have.

so you want to base a framework on a model that is known to break down in conditions commonly experienced by the objects you want to study in the framework? that doesn't work. you just get something that doesn't correspond to reality. to draw conclusions from something that starts off from a false assumption(worse, a KNOWN false assumption) will only lead to false conclusions. therefore, aside from being a mildly interesting intellectual exercise in futility, is completely useless for any real application of cosmology.

one of the many ways evolutionary algorithms apply the laws of nature make something work. if you doubt that was real then you shouldn't use your computer as the CPU was developed in a similar manner once processors started having transistors numbering in the millions.

pirates appear to cool the world because they attract heat to themselves so the the areas where the pirates hang out tends to be warmer than everywhere else.

generic radiation sickness. the severity of which would depend on the absorbed dose. in a medical x-ray procedure his is pretty much impossible. it's only people who are going to be exposed hundreds of times a day that really need to be sheilded(hence the lead walls, aprons and such.

kebabs are a side effect of alcoholic teleportation. there is always a kebab shop intermediate stop. it also seems to be in a pocket of unreality where it is always 3.15 am.

probably not since you imbibe in a lot of alcohol and probably a kebab along the way.
