He is making fun of the fact we don't have a plama gun like star wars to fire at it. Not sure what NASA would do.But nukes will not work.

Intresting . Not sure just how much a power plant has over lightning bolt or just how low the power of a lightning is.

It would be intresting to see what NASA or the UN is going to do. May be DAPA they get alot of money and dark ops have some thing.

I would not hold your breath .Even if they did make one it would not be that much bigger than your car ,Not nice for scfi TV. The big problem is propulsion and why we have to use stages .Now some are working on plane that takes of using a jet and when get high to XY the rocket kicks in. The DC-X and the X-33 had major problems and that is why they scrap it.

The TV shows star treck and star wars that show those big space ships or SSTO make me laugh. No propulsion system today allows SSTO like those scfi shows. May be in 20 years from now we may get a very very very small crude SSTO but will be nothing like the scfi shows.The big problem is propulsion and that is why we must use stages not a SSTO .There has been some work on very small crude SSTO but even than the propulsion does not allow it. Why will the scfi shows not get it right?

Well I must say the technology we have now there is not much we can do.The TV shows that shows how to destry a asteroid the technology we have will not do that.

From what people tell me the alternate energy has of now will not keep up with the demad .Now in the future the cost of the alternate energy may go way down and you may get more electricity out of it. People say wind power , tind power ,solar power , dams so on are more powerful now than before and cost less. That say you have city population 500,000 you may need 5 solar power plants now not like before 12 solar power plants , If it was coal , gas or oil only one power plant. This proves that alternate energy has of now cannot keep up with demad but may be in the future they may fix this problem. Some people say cold fusion or fusion power will save the world one day.This is good stuff to look into. Some way out scientist think you can get electricity from lightning or the ionosphere and claim that Nikola Tesla was working on tower to tap into this energy but got paid off.

Is it just me or has other people seen this too.Looking at alot of message boards and yahoo groups , yahoo answers there seems to be alot of lack of science.I mean there are some smart people :-)but than there is alot of people that lack science. Even the news ,media and government lack science.And there seems to be a big lack of science how the human body works and medicine. And there seems to be lack of facts given. One person ask quetion what is step cell and person lacks science say it is killing a baby for cloning .Than all other people read it and when next quetion comes up what is step cell the same thing happence and more people learn that fact that is not true. I had one person say DNA is not in the cell but cell in the DNA.Other people saying to me I hate medicine that is not natural. And other saying cloning and stem cell is bad that is not what god wants and you playing god and is not natural.But have no problems with organ transplants , going to doctor ,taking drugs or having electronic implant. No problem with AI research ,electronics in humans , organ transplants so on. I had one person that does not even know what red blood cells are , white blood cells are and platelets are.Than I hear people say if the moon is gone all life on earth is dead ,NASA is going crash moon or destry it today. People these days seem to lack science and make up their own science like DNA is not in cell but cell in DNA with out saying I do not know the answer.

Why does everyone bash traditional medicine? Have they not look into the properties of trees ,herbs , spices ,flowers , microorganisms , incests ,shrubs so on and see if it good or bad? Where are the doctors in the rain forest ? There must be lots cures there. I know in past alot of the drugs did not get inoproved. So a doctor or medicine man can say tale XY it wil help you !! And there was no research or study on it just the doctor or medicine man word. Many made people sick or did nothing .A man has cancer goes to medicine man say smoke pot or take heroin the symptoms are gone but the cancer still there. Do to lack of medical knowledge of the human body the word gets out and everyone think when you smoke pot or take heroin is cure for cancer .This was problem with traditional medicine. And other traditional medicine doing nothing or making person sick. I'm not saying all traditional medicine is bad but many just do not look into it. What I will like see is start from the beginning . Take all known living matter trees ,herbs , spices ,flowers , microorganisms , incests ,shrubs so on and all chemicals and do research or study on it . May be in 20 or 30 years from now we would have study all living matter trees ,herbs , spices ,flowers , microorganisms , incests ,shrubs so on and all chemicals . Where is the trial and error and why is no one doing it?

Can you explain this better.

People tell me there is a slow down of drugs being made now and it is getting harder for new drugs or cures now.Say there was time the drug companies where making lots and lots of drugs and now it is harder and harder to come up with new drugs now.Is this true? Are we coming up to brick wall with new drugs or what we can come out with? Also I know in past alot of peopel use herbs , spices ,tress ,plants ,flowers , microorganisms , incests ,shrubs so on. And alot did nothing or make person sick. But has scientists look into the properties of these and done re-search to back up science proof. And I hear some drug companies are looking into it and using it is that true? And what medicine do we have today that uses it? Some one was saying some oak in tree the drug companies are using for cancer .

1 . is it true that some thing that turns on or off very fast or AC will make radio wave ? 2. modulation is way of putting information on the radio wave? 3. All things have a resonant frequencies ? 4. A resonant is some thing that vibrates when energy of certain frequency is applied to it. 5. A moving or changing magnetic field causes electric current. Note I'm trying find other ways to transfer electricity or cause electric current.I know electric current has magnetic field and magnetic field causes electric current . I also know there is strong relashionship of electricity and magnetism .

Why is the US darker than Canada ? IS the US more a service based economy than Canada? Also anyone got better legen?

I have 2 quetions what math do they use to put a hidden picture or information in a picture like a Jpg ? And how does this work? And what math or software do they use to make picture bigger or make it clear. That say a security camera like a robbery and they use cheap camera and low quality .What math would they use to make it bigger and clear . Low quality and small picture. http://www.blogcdn.com/www.joystiq.com/media/2008/12/gamestoprobbery.jpg I thought the video enhancing department of the police station use adobe photoshop ? Some one was saying there is no limit to video enhancing still image or moving image it is just more math. How does this work and how long does this take? Can person at home with no training or little training do it?

wages are determined by supply and demand.It takes lot of schooling to become a professor ,lawyer , judges ,doctor , scientists and alot of people do not have what it takes to be one.If you want to be professor ,lawyer , judges ,doctor , scientists say than to your self eat ,sleep and study , learn and study and study and no time to go out with friends or party or you will not do well in school. People from China or India know how hard life is ,how conpetive the world is , is there enough money to put food on the table or roof over their head , they come to the US for a better life and they are use to working hard and the government and parents teach discipline , give them high standards and promote higher learning. You what to be a professor ,lawyer , judges ,doctor , scientists than from the time you get up to the time you go to bad read and read and just may be you get 80% of understanding what you raed. It takes alot of work to be a scientist or doctor and most people do not want to spend 10 to 15 years in school to be one.No time go out with friends or watch TV. Sure there are geeks who are very very smart and read some thing once and never have to go back and read it again or centric doctor or scientists that love it so much and so consumed in the work and anti- social that people call them geeks or nerds. I don't know why Cuba has more doctors more money the goverment puts into it, people working at walmart in the US get more pay than a doctor in Cuba by 3 times ,lack of enrolment mark in med school. You need 98% mark to be a doctor in the US and only 85% in Cuba ,lack of medical equipment in Cub like MRI's or CT' scan thant every hospital in the US has to have , old equipment , all the GDP in Cuba goes to doctors and nothing else. I'm not sure but I do know Cuba is poor country and people get paid very little money skilled or not.They have alot of doctors but I do not know how well the doctors are train in Cuba or how outaded the hospitals are do they have MRI's or CT' scan so on.What is their health standards and do they have high med school standards so on. Those third world countries may have alot of doctors but the pay is very very very bad and have outaded medical equipment ,low health standards ,and do not need high marks in med schools . I'm sure this is a conplex quetions why healthcare cost so much and why there is a lack of doctors has there are many reason why . I explain about China and India.. That face it grade 12 is going to get you no where and 3 or 5 years of school above grade 12 is nothing .There is a little culture happing in US that school sucks , it hard to learn and lot of work and afraid. Doing the apollo there was interest I want to work for NASA or be a scientist and people got interest in space and space rockets but the past 30 years we are declining The schools ,government and parents are not promoting medicine and science enough and do too school costing so much and culture of youth it hard to learn and lot of work be are not doing it.

You talking about trade debt that is because the US imports more than they export.The fed debt is the goverment spends money like the world coming to the end. The US is changing from manufacturering industry to a service based economy the problem is commodity ,resources or service an other country wants is what makes wealth and makes that country rich. Remove commodity ,resources or a service an other country wants = no wealth gain. I person living beyon means is bad very bad :eek:taking 40 years to pay your house or car loans off is bad.The American people live by debt they want a house ,car and every thing in the store and go to the bank and use the debt-card and take out big loans and mortgages!!.

There is shortage of professors ,teachers ,lawyers and judges. But I blame the goverment for this. Why is too many doctors in Cuba and why does China and India pump out more skilled work.Kids from China and India work hard and get into more skilled work. In the US science and medicine is lacking in schools .Look at NASA and rocket research and the droup out rates. May be people are scared of skilled learning they think it is very hard and they will not get the help they need.

Should the US start over ? Say we have a big debt and re-call all money and declare bacrupcy and start a new courancy. And say we had good time and now we face reality and lower wages to other countries? After all Canada and US had it too good when you look at South America , Central America ,Asia and Europe with wages and greedy lifestyle..

I was reading some where on the internet that Canada and US spent more on healthcare in the 70's and 80's than the late 90's. and it is less than 5% of the GDP go to healthcare :eek: They also go on to say that the 90's in the US and Canada the goverment put cap on the number of doctors to drive the cost up and so there is a shortage of doctors. Also saying the amout of money per GDP per healthcare is lower now than the 70's and 80's .And the US spend more on healthcare than Canada. ****** The thing is healthcare is a business base on who has the money for treatment and fat cats who profit of sick people with little money trickling back to by new med supply or cover cost. . The shortage of doctors is artificially created to drive cost up.To fix problem build more med schools ,remove cap of enrolment to schools ,pay school tuition fees , bring immigrants in to work ,remove administration staff who make million a year ,lower wages to countries like Europe ,remove government and administration burecrats who jump in bad with intrest groups and business and make a million yaer being paper pusher . But this will not happen in the US :eek:people want to be rich and yet thing they can get what other Europe countries can get in service that is just digging their own hole and the same thing is happing with NASA. The car companies is other thing where people got too much money and too many benefits.

Many of the things you say above was not there 50 or 100 years ago like Ct scan ,pet scan ,ultrusound ,MRI so on. Those things have been around for 200 years. But here is thing , cancer was a death sentence before.Now alot of people who get cancer live thanks to Chemotherapy ,radiation ,drugs ,surgery and lasers that was not possible 50 yaers ago or even 30 yaers ago. People who had diabetes or allergic to some thing died 50 years ago and now they can live thanks to drugs. Well Asthma you died 50 years ago now you got puffers ,drugs and IV's . If you had a parasite , fungus or virus you died But 200 years ago they discovered parasite , fungus and virus. Good to understand but this is playing god when you mess with people DNA.

I was reading some where on the internet that Canada spent more on healthcare in the 70's and 80's than the late 90's. They also go on to say that the 90's in the US and Canada the goverment put cap on the number of doctors to drive the cost up and so there is a shortage of doctors. Also saying the amout of money per GDP per healthcare is lower now than the 70's and 80's .And the US spend more on healthcare than Canada.

Why does the government put cap so there is a shortage of doctors? only allow so many doctors a year? And why have they not buid more med schools.When you look at the GDP heathcare get so little:eek:

Keep in mind 98% of stuff above would not be possible with out electricity or the micrscope. There was not alot of progress in science or medicine in the middle age do to the chuch and alot of science or medicine was lost . The Greek and Roman medicine was very good :-)doing surgery and using herbs ,drinks,flowers even though 60% of the herbs ,drinks,flowers did nothing the other percent did work. (( Hippocrates of Cos maintains that diseases have natural causes and puts forth the Hippocratic Oath, marking the birth of medicine in the west. )) This guy was good to bad he was not in the middle age that thought sin was why there is diseases . The forbidding the dissection of humans in the middle age did not help.Like in the old days and today the church tries to stop progress in science or medicine . http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_medicine_and_medical_technology

Why does healthcare cost so much? Like every year healthcare cost is so high .There is a shortage of doctors and the healthcare cost is so high . A cost of a MRI or CT scan is extremely costly and governments are having a very hard time to give money to healthcare . What is going on and why is it like that.Why is there a shortage of doctors. Why was the 60's, 70's, 80's better than now with high cost and shortage of doctors. I hear of long wait times in the ER why is that.Why is the cost so much higher than 30 or 40 years ago

I'm doing a project in school on the medicine we have now and medicine in the past or years ago in the past.The only things I can think of ar. 1.liver, heart, kidney ,face transplant we have now not possible 50 yaers ago. 2.Working on a person brain or heart .No doctor would do that 50 years ago . 3.Microscope invented in 1800's allow us today to understand the microorganism and what causes diseases and illnesses. 4.The Microscope and computers / math allowed inventions in drugs. 5.People with HIV are living longer than 20 years ago. 6.People who have cancer is no longer a death sentence.( only some cancers are easier to treat and well others are harder to treat . 7.New advances MRI ,CT scan, x-rays not possible 50 years ago. 8.Understanding of cell and DNA not possible 100 years ago. 9.Understanding of the brain not possible 50 years ago. A1. There are cures for some cancers, fungi and parasites A2 There are cures for Ebola, and Bubonic Plague A3. There is cure for SARS A4 There is cure for some bird flue strains A5 Has for influenza some strains there is a cure. All of this stuff is treatable, and most curable, depending upon what parasite, fungi, cancer, and strain of TB. Anyways I cannot think of more or cannot elaborate.But I'm doing this project . If anyone will like to add than please do.Also any more information about microscope will help or advance math and computer models to find new drugs
