How do you do that, They are only about 5-6mm wide? Do you use carbide blades?

Easily done.

Our radio footprint is only about 100 light years all around us.

Kudos to you for sticking it out on pretty hard stuff like that. I've hand sanded quite a few miles of oak hand rails and doors. I've just got one for sizing. I still like manual planing for finishing.

No electric hand planer?

The mechanism of evolution is known beyond a shadow of a doubt, it's the actual mechanism of abiogenesis that is unknown; the first steps.

You've convinced me. It seems the best way to go.

I'm thinking about that. I don't know whether to go for waterstones or adhesive-backed sheets on glass.The advantage of the latter is it's always flat. I've got a diamond plate but it's only a cheap one.

Can you shave your arm hairs with them?

Have you got the first inch of the back of your chisels to a high polish; a chisel is only as sharp as the back is smooth because that is the edge.

The only time it's useful is in those magic eye pictures.

I can't see what use it is or that it's odd in anyway because the entangled particles were together, then separated, and when you do look the wavefunction collapses. If you could change the state at one end to change the other then that would be interesting

Any increase of length of metal, besides from thermal expansion, is plastic deformation, isn't it. Would be a lot easier if he just said what he was doing instead of playing 'Twenty questions'.

History will be the judge of what is remembered and how it is remembered. If an event is forgotten, then it never struck a chord with ensuing generations. Mass atrocities having likely been occurring throughout all of our history.

It's tough, peer review, isn't it? At least you are not throwing a wobbler, like most.

So, they are pretty tough then.

I thought 127C at whatever pressure sorted them out, except prions.

Put two hosepipe ends protruding in a bag and one outside end is connected to a tap. What's the chances of a short jet of water coming out the other bit of pipe?

Yes, that option is there as well.

For spores I think it would need heating under pressure.

I think we've been down this road before, where Prometheus explained the generally poor outcome of CPR.

Yes, I just meant it as indicative that such thinking exists within the health system. National ones anyway.

The existence of the QALY system is testament to those constraints, isn't it?

The operative words are "akin to a black hole", it doesn't mean it's composed of extremely curved spacetime... they actually call it a 'void', which presumably means empty..

It's not real money though. It's just numbers, most of it. Value is not money in your hand....or truck in his case.
