yeah you're probably right :/

I think it is safe to scientifically say that you have super human powers.

I thionk what he was really wondering is if genetic engineering can make an elephant the size of a pig, to have as a pet. I think we should try and splice pig and elephant DNA.

I recall reading a while back that studies have shown that men continue to grow and mature into their early 20s, usually ending around 22 or 23.

In a car thats one thing, but I think their applications would be better suited for parts in power plants or perhaps turbine-based engines.

on another note there have been some studies into animating body parts of dogs. I saw a video from, like, the 50s. I mean the thing wasn't alive, but its reflexes worked.

There is a point in human development and maturity where the age difference becomes immaterial. unfortunately that point isn't usually reached until somewhere around legal adulthood, most societies have the boundries pretty well defined, and they are usually above the age of 15. I guess taiwan sets it at 16. the U.S. generally sets it at 18. nature sets it at the onset of puberty, but the human body matures faster than the mind driving it, and to spread your love on young teenage girls could be considered amoral due to the fact that these girls' minds are not developed enough to handle the social, physical, and emotional stresses that sexual activity can enforce on them.

if the equipment is so bulky it will mean scuba divers will haave to wait a long time, but I imagine the tech could be applied to underwater habitats sooner.

the coloring is "off" there is a part on the websight where they discuss how they color it, the coloring is based on some property, like curvature or height. the original images where greyscale.

my take on the question: 3 dimensional atoms have their length width and height, but are basically still life models of an atom, where nothing moves or changes. you add in the dimension of time, the axis on which change occurs... and you have atoms as they are commonly observed in 4d. think of observable 3d space as sort of a cut of time, like the "visible man" program, where you could display a portion of a corpse, as it moves down the length (reclining, head to foot) you see all the insides of him within the boundries of his width and heigth. A constant movement along the length makes his insides appear to expand and flow as if they are moving, shrinking, growing, along the two visible axes. time is the same, but the cut is moving down the axis of time and we are observing the axes of length width and heigth of the frozen corpse of the universe one slide at a time. one should then question weather or not the future is malleable or if it is set in stone (as the past is) and we just lack enough data about the current state of the world and possible changes to determine which route in that "future cone" that is going to be followed.

that was for the lay person? gosh!

why not? that doesn't make sense to me. how would mass be relative to who is observing it?

as something approaches the speed of light its mass increases, (right?) thus requiring more energy to move, at c its mass is infinate, as is the energy required to move it. Light can do it because it has no mass.

I don't think time stops, but our ability to observe it through reflected photons would be greatly altered. In the direction of our travel vector the light we are using to measure time, movement, etc. would be caught at the back end, so to speak, and we'd be seeing light that already passed. The light parallel to us or behind us would not be able to keep up and would appear to fall away, or rather wouldn't reach our eyes, thus it would go dark. the atomic clock would keep on keeping on though.... so time didn't stop, or reverse, only our ability to observe it would.
