Beware ye the Salesweasels, for they promise Heaven, and instead deliver Purgatory.

I thought they had evidence of Dark Matter based on its effects on light that mimicked gravity.

What I want to know is: if matter is entitled to “affirmative action”, does anti-matter deserve “negative action”?

Hope God doesn’t decide to put out an emergency service pack, or we are all in trouble.

Based on event in the last year, I think we must be on Universe Vista Edition.

“Problem is today all these physicists want to make a name for themselves and get grants and they keep coming up with this unproven crap and everytime they cant solve the mathematics behind it they borrow or lend from an alternate universe.”

Ding! Ding! Ding! We have a winner. And they have a short time to do it because we haven’t achieved immortality yet!

I’m sure the Macfaithful™ would disagree with that. They are looking into the future with Mac OSXX 20.3 slated as “Salt Water Harvest Mouse”

Well this theory poses a huge problem. If dark matter poses a negative effect on light as I have heard suggested then the Universe MUST be younger than previously thought. There is no dark matter between the Earth and the Sun and they have measured the speed of light between the two. However, if dark matter slows light is it not feasible, that given enough distance, light would actually stop.

For example, a yellow-orange sun called Chara is 26 light years from the sun. If it takes 26 light years and we have dark matter having a negative effect on it. Would it not be possible that with out it, the light would only need 20 light years, perhaps only 10.

This would of course provide more problems than they are trying to solve.

Is Obama the dark matter who is destroying the universe now that he has destroyed our economy?

You just have to insert your Mac hostility into everything, don't you? Grow up and do something useful!

Lighten up a bit, life is too short to be led around by a be-speckled liberal in a black turtleneck. If you can’t laugh at yourself, there are a bunch of people outside of your cult that certainly can, lol.

I was just commenting on your obvious lack of facts, and that you prefer to continually denigrate Mac users on this forum. It has nothing to do with Apple or Jobs! You never make a coherent argument, just spew your ad hominems.

You're acting like a puppy!

No facts? You are a perfect example of the cult of Mac iDiots have dubbed the MacFaithful™. FACT

Jobs wears those stupid black turtlenecks. FACT

Macfaithfuls™ love those idiotic names Apple uses like Tiger or Leopard to name their OS version. Lions and Tigers and SNow leopards, oh my.... FACT.

Every comment I made was a fact. What exactly are you having trouble following?

The last I heard now called the M-theory has 11 dimensions.

Steve,

You are correct. M-Theory now has 11 dimensions. Actually they adopted that from the Super Gravity folks to explain the fact that there were four different string theories.

So they decided that adding the 11th dimension would allow them to have a parent theory.

In the end all that did was create a 5th String Theory.

All I am saying is that they may be right and they may be wrong. However they are NOWHERE near understanding the Universe to start expounding the “Real” nature of the Universe.

In fact many people say that a whole new branch of Mathematics will have to be created to solve these problems.

And suddenly borrowing and lending energy from alternate universes is a cheap and lazy way to try and solve your problems.
