Black holes can also be charged, decelerated and controlled with electomagnetic fields.

Do you know what the minumum movement of the ear drum is, that a human can sense?

1/100th the diameter of a hydrogen atom.

My God, that's hypnotic!

I can't stop watching the little blue balls.

The technichal term is, "There exists a non-zero probability..."

As in, "There exists a non-zero probability that all the oxygen molecules in the room will suddenly rush to the far corner, and leave you breathing nitrogen."

It could happen. Heck, who knows, maybe it has.

Isn't it brilliant! That graphic can be tiled, too, to fill up a whole page. There are several versions as well.

Of course, that is why I smoke. If my cigarette goes out unexpectedly, that is an indicator that I should stop breathing.

Like when the "O2" light comes on in the car.

If they won't eat the planet, they're not black holes.

Oh yes, it's amazing that little it takes to keep me amused.

Where did you find it?

I've been watching that thing for the hour since you posted it and I think I've finally come up with a count. There are 103,267 little blue balls in it. Wait a minute...103,268. Dang it. Back in an hour...

Yes, I have been in meetings where it seemed all the oxygen had been sucked to the other side of the room.

I knew what they meant by the term... I just never heard the term "totally miniscule" before and thought it was humorous.

Somebody actually pulled the fire alarm in the middle of a meeting, yesterday. Can't say I blame him.

The Democrat Party has already ordered a batch. (They can also get rid of troublesome personnel.)

Turn your sound way down - the workers' tune on this site is fun but too loud.

ROFLMAO!!!

You did very well with the count last night and I have another project for you.

Count these (turn your sound down!) and get back to me later today.

Good luck!
