Right. This is bordering on ridiculous. Tree99, spivver, you need to learn how to argue. Ignoring the other side's arguments isn't exactly the best method. Stop dodging questions and start giving solid evidence or I'll end up closing this thread like all of the other ones. Note that the entire free-fall argument is pointless anyway. It doesn't matter how close it was to free-fall speed: once the top several stories (and several thousand tons) started moving, there was no way a weakened steel structure was going to offer more than token resistance. The time it took to collapse is irrelevant. What you need to prove is that jet fuel and fire was not enough to weaken the structure, and you have not done that.

Depends. If the egg is buoyant enough, it won't hit the bottom of the container, and it probably won't crack. But it might bounce back and hit the top.

Some values of 2 are bigger than others.

Actually, if you post a few questions you don't understand, or ask a question about a concept you don't get, we'll help you. We just won't give you all of the answers. Re-opened. (Sorry, ecoli)

How does it "crash"? Does it explode? What happens?

When I said "that assumes the animal is sentient," I meant, in summary, "that assumes that the animal is capable of liking or disliking things, feeling pain, and generally having feelings in the same way humans do."

How much? You could also do things like decompose hydrogen peroxide, or any number of other things...

Yes. Split some water. It should only take a battery and a few other bits and you can do it. http://www.miniscience.com/projects/WaterElectrolise.htm

That assumes that the animal is sentient.

Yes, it is possible, but it uses the force of the photons from the sun, not the solar wind (though that may help, I don't know). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_sail for a quick starter on the topic.

You can use it as an antenna feed line for a radio antenna.

Check all the links in Klaynos's post above.

Define "trying to shutdown the network." What's it doing? Sending out mass amounts of data?

I installed Ubuntu a few weeks ago and love it. It's so nice not to be forced to restart any time any program updates itself

Ah, so the blow-up doll was satisfactory enough for you?

Oh, and Pangloss says he wants the wildebeest pin-ups back soon. (no, I'm not going to let anyone get out of this scot-free)

I didn't lose them as such, it's just that Mokele seems to have eaten them while he was over for our last mod party. And you'll have to ask blike about the blow-up, since he borrowed it to relieve the strain of medical school...

And another could search eBay for those Teletubby DVDs you enjoy so much...

Perhaps you need a moderating robot

I believe only Ni-Cad rechargables get the "memory effect"

You get plasma.

I'm evil.

You're welcome.

Suddenly there will be a new campaign: Mothers Against Drunken Pedestrians Falling Off Bridges. Next there'd be government regulations requiring lampposts to be padded.

I get the impression that you're arguing against points that you agree with, without even realizing it.
