Still dont know what brought down that C-17 that crashed up here. If it turns out it was bird strikes again I am going to be mad. We lost that AWACS plane with 24 crewmen in 1995 to those geese. Tree huggers dont want us getting rid of the geese but they are not even native to that area. Grrrrr.

You tell 'em Scott!

Afternoon all. Worked a little today, mostly laying out pipe and assembling the mess. Ran out of supplies so I'll finish it tomorrow. Sinuses are screaming today, currently administering a sedative to them.

According to Einstein's theory, no physical object can travel faster than the speed of light. But I offer that space itself, can expand faster than the speed of light even tho its' particles may still be restricted to the speed of light.

Let's discuss this!

This may in fact be true, but it is impossible to measure the speed of something without mass. This is the foundation of his theories and why they breakdown at natures extremes. Physics does not allow for values of infinity, only mathematics does. That is the conundrum we are now facing, reducing infinity to a real, defined number.

that may be true, but as far as I can tell you have to graduate from BCU to be really smart.

But space DOES have mass!

British Columbia University? Blake's Crappy Understandings?



My eye hurts, I'm going to bed. Drove over 100 miles today without glasses. I don't *think* I hit anything.

[QUOTE=chaikwa;2812373]But space DOES have mass!

You said the particles within it can't move faster than the speed of light. If you remove the 'particles' you would be left with the space between them.
Once you remove all the particles, or mass, you are unable to measure the 'spaces' speed. Besides, If the space between the particles were moving faster than the particles in it, which can not move faster than the speed of light, you would end up with a very large mass with no space between them, leaving very large conversions of matter with astronomical mass and density. With the absence of space these particles would combine and either erupt in massive explosions or create an area of immense gravitational forces. Maybe that is the real origin of black holes...

Evening Yall


Had and interesting, yet outstanding supper. Made friends with the people who own the motel we are staying at. Dad and I and another inspector had supper with them. Some chicken and shrimp grilled in traditional Indian style. First time eating real Indian food. Pretty good stuff! Spicy as heck but still awesome.

Oh and thats the tech support Indians, not the casino Indians.

Jeff, I may have underestimated you. Usually, Blake's friends are not that smart.
