1 Show some sort of evidence 2 Show me any statement by any competent engineer or scientist from any big company to back that up 3 No it doesn't. if you disagree- show us where you get two (or more answers from valid calculus. 4 It is, in fact, widely (in fact, practically universally) accepted. If you think it isn't reliable you need to show where it gets things wrong. 5 Yes it does- if you disagree show where it fails 6 He's a crank as shown here http://www.thunderbolts.info/forum/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=15094&start=225&sid=5229d20b2c0a74dc0ef38fa6a2cc7ade and on plenty of other sites. 7 It truly is a form of energy and not momentum- by definition 8 No it is not- apart from anything else, your idea has no meaning in zero gravity where you can't define "up" so you can't define height. 9 No. It's not the definition its some rubbish you made up because you don't really understand the underlying physics. If you claim the others "lie" then you need to show where they get it wrong.

A water molecule is not heavier than a nitrogen or oxygen molecule. However all of them are heavy enough to stay here. The same is not true of H2 and He which is why they are rare in the atmosphere.

There are so many holes in all the versions of the flood myth that it's a problem for any text that includes it (How big would the arc need to be is the real problem). Ironically, it's one scripture story that might possibly have an origin in a real event. http://geology.about.com/od/flooding/qt/floodcomeback.htm And if you think about it, the problem isn't why didn't God get rid of the unclean animals- the question is why did He create them in the first place.

It is much easier to throw away the sand than to clean the bowl.

If you don't have the right kit you shouldn't be trying to distil nitric acid. If you don't have the right knowledge you shouldn't be trying to distil nitric acid.

It is true that this thread contains much information; but virtually none of it is from you. The topic would be pointless and confusing reading for a beginner- mainly because it's full of errors and misunderstandings- all on your part) Also, I guess it's a linguistic thing, but referring to people as "retards" is not socially acceptable.

The biggest bug is the one I pointed out earlier. It is possible to prove mathematically that energy and momentum are conserved quantities You seem to have ignored this As I said earlier, please get back to us when you have shown the errors in this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noether%27s_theorem Unless you can do that there is no point in you posting anything. The second bug is this "Work=m*h/t, m=mass, h=height, t=time (That is very fundamental! The most important thing. Most logical=obvious.)" which is plain wrong.

Well, I might not call her a crackpot- but I'd call her an analytical chemist (like me). And, as such she is unqualified to speak with authority on nuclear physics.

Most Bible scholars seem to take those passages of the book that can be shown to be wrong as "allegorical or literary while those bits which are not proven to be wrong, are taken literally. Whenever the real world shows that a passage is not true, the Bible bashers simply move it from one category to the other and conveniently forget that they used to believe it.

In a ,molecule like water the electrons that are removed when you ionise it are "shared" between oxygen and hydrogen. So, if you remove them you have ionised the molecule. You have not ionized oxygen or hydrogen. It really would be better if you started at the bottom and learned some science. This thread is like trying to explain the architecture of a city skyscraper to someone who has read a book about bricks.

That's just not true. Where did you get that idea?

"The Oxford Dictionary definition in this context is ' a disturbance of the peace by a crowd; an occurence of public disorder '." And thereby includes a Christmas carol concert as a riot. I am now asking for a third time, how did you find your riots? Also- there's no way to avoid politics in the issue of rioting.

I see that "blacklight power" has changed it's name, but seems still not done much but spend other people's money. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brilliant_Light_Power#Criticism

The physics is possible, but if you found one... http://hitchhikers.wikia.com/wiki/Magrathea

Because the outside was also moving faster than the inside when the master record was cut.

Just at thought- not worthy of it's own topic- perhaps those with a better understanding could help me with this If I wind a single turn "coil" of wire it will have an inductance. If I remember rightly, the inductance is proportional to the area enclosed. How big a loop would I need for my single turn primary to draw a viable (say 1 amp) current from the mains (call it 120 volts)? Feel free to make any assumptions you like about the size of the wire and the material of the core (we may need to pretend that the copper wire is stupidly cold so it's electrical resistance is smaller than the usual value in order to keep the Q out of the range of "stupid").

In the real world, it was a two word reply to a one word question; quite generous in a way.

It's the other part of my question that's more important. How did you find them? If you are doing this sort of research it's all too easy to fall into the Texas sharp shooter trap. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Texas_sharpshooter_fallacy There's also a concern that some of them are clearly driven by external events- the miners' strike protests were carefully coordinated (by the police or the miners depending on whom you believe but they were not "spontaneous"). Some of the events are "copycat" riots (anything Handsworth can do, Nottingham can do better). that amounts to "double counting" of one event. The London protests about the G20 summit were not a riot. It's my understanding that so called "football violence" which has little to do with the game is often stage managed in advance by groups who enjoy that sort of thing. Anti-capitalist events on May day are more likely to be influenced by the date than the earthquakes. So- how do you define a riot? Incidentally, a rough tally (I only looked at years in office, rather than month- feel free to do it properly) says that 52 of the events took place under a Tory government as opposed to 17 under New Labour. The terms in office were about 17 and 13 years for the two parties respectively. The Tories had about 57% of the time in office, but 75% of the riots/ events. To me that looks like a rather stronger (and more plausible) effect than seismology (Unless Vulcan hates Tories).

A riot in the UK twice a year seems rather unlikely. Wiki only seems to have found rather fewer https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_riots#1980s What mechanism are you using to find these "riots"?

"I assume the extra heat is coming from the surrounding air " No. It's coming from the reaction of the acid with the metal. It is then given to the air- it warms the room up very slightly.

"Coe & com seem unreliable," to whom? "(algebraically) they can NOT be confirmed" Actually, they can https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noether%27s_theorem You can stop now Capiert, at least until you can show why she was wrong.

You really do not have the background to understand this. An ionised atom is not, in general, an equilibrium state so it doesn't have a properly defined temperature. How could it have a melting point?

So what? The truth is that they answer to your question is no. Because they repel eachother. That's it. There's nothing more to say.

" do they freeze together, or one by one." Together " Then the question arises what if I ionize the oxygen atom to prevent it from freezing," Sodium oxide is a solid - it is frozen- but it contains oxide ions. The question is how would you "ionize the oxygen atom "? It's not possible.

The simple answer is not on their own. If you have a bunch of +ve ions they will repel eachother. You won't be able to get them close enough together to pack into a solid. You can pack them into a lattice with other ions For example, salt is made of +ve sodium ions and -ve chloride ions.
