What would happen if you just ate crisps? (=chips in US)
greg1917 replied to rmp2000v21's topic in Other Sciences
Drink Tennents with the crisps. That way the crisps taste better and any females in the immediate vicinity will look nicer. -
I think psychology is going the way of several popular sciences right now, a huge influx of gradutaes into a job market that cant cope. Its happened already with geology - there are so many graduates with geology degrees there just isnt a market for them and any jobs there are usually snapped up by people with better qualifications than a degree. If you genuinely enjoy psychology then you should study it, but be aware of the demand for your profession when you graduate.

Oh bloody hell its almost 4am, im off to bed. frank de boers debut for Rangers tomorrow so im just hoping he hits the ground running.

Lol Mind you, sunderland fans are still probably gutting themselves laughing at Newcastle getting knocked out by FK Partizan
-
Your a lyon fan?
-
MrL a pervert? Ill alert lord Hutton right away to make sure your cleared of every charge and the BBC takes the rap!
-
Couldnt drink guinness myself, id let down my fellow Rangers fans by being associated with the dark side. Not that im pathetic or anything.

Thats why physicists aren't normal people. They think outside the box then mutter to themselves all day and quaff real ale.

Can I just take the chance to applaud MrL's patience for being asked exactly the same question repeatedly yet still posting answers? The problem here is people cant seem to comprehend mechanics outside the nice, closed newtonian world where everything is wonderful and predictable. if you are travelling at 99%c and turn on a torch, the photons from the torch will move away from YOU at c. To a person standing still as you shoot past them, the same photons will also appear to be travelling at c. For anyone else who happens to be jogging past this absurd scenario at ANY speed, the photons will be travelling at c. to accomodate this, crazy things like time dillation and length contraction occur. Well, crazy for a chemist anyway. we like to stick to things like deciding the best solvent sytems for a tricky TLC the next day

I see no reason it shouldnt be discussed, but the way the thread is going im beginning to wonder how relevant it is when it can be found in the politics forum. In response to the original question I have no problem with gay marriages but find it quite pathetic that the church is appealing to popular culture by becoming more leniant. if it has values it should stick to them. The fact I disagree with said values is irrelevant.

In what way are you anywhere near qualified to assume (and its only an assumption, unless you're willing to explain the precise intacacies of this exact discovery) that this form of matter has no uses? Based on a sinlge news report (and a yahoo one I might add) you've claimed its pointless. Elaborate or at least explain you're rejection of what looks like an important breakthrough.

Did you bother reading the actual news report? Dont make grand stataments about something you obviosuly have nowher near the ability to understand.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Scientists said on Wednesday they had created a new form of matter and predicted it could help lead to the next generation of superconductors for use in electricity generation, more efficient trains and countless other applications. The new matter form is called a fermionic condensate and it is the sixth known form of matter -- after gases, solids, liquids, plasma and a Bose-Einstein condensate, created only in 1995.

Im very happy living in a country where guns are outlawed and hope it remains so. I remember sitting in a class when the teacher came and had to explain to us what had just happened at Dunblane, listening in disbelief. That was enough for me.

Why would it be?
-
Im not. You said responsible decision. If that was not to bring the child into this world, that would be the responsible decision. A simple (and to be honest very ineffective) word trick doesnt prove anything.

So why does it work with 6? or was I the only one that thought of a carrot in this example?
-
As soon as I saw what the thread was all about, I was expecting it to ask something along those lines. When asked to think of a vegetable, I had a complete mental blank and struggled to think of a single one. Carrot was indeed the first thing that entered my head.

"Electrons have a tendency to move from one place to another using no time at all" Not the electrons I know. they're just normal, law abiding electrons who dont want no trouble. To accuse them of time travel is somewhat improper and I have to ask you take that back, save offending the poor dears.

Good innit? Im not aware of the site actually needing further moderation but if it keeps growing then maybe. If people posted moderately, surely we wouldnt be needed at all?

In Britain we have a problem with beaorocrats as well. they start in Whitehall and by the time they get to Brussles they've grown into giant festering sores.

Greg. Honest. Despite cunning sign on name.

Because when people take heroin, they get addicted very quickly and in the majority of cases cant afford the cost of said drug. They often result to petty crime and drug dealing themselves. In conclusion, any body that beats the living daylight of heroin dealers has my vote.

What is the difference between chemistry and physics?
greg1917 replied to Dreamer's topic in Other Sciences
Id agree with the biology comment but I wasnt able to take a subject at uni when i didnt study it at school at all. So breathing apparatus is your thing YT? Not my kettle of fish (boom boom) but every man to his own. I wont post my preference, this thread needs to stay clean
