Congratulations!!! Keep up the Posting !!!

I guess some people can't work it out - it's a shame

 

Pig Roast Canceled

Oh man, that's a bunch of !!!

Political correctness has gone too far!!! That's unbelievable!!!

neurotransmitter

That's awesome! Too bad I don't have 1.7 million to blow .

Congatulations from me!!! We're all so happy for them!!! :)

No, I'm not. But I don't have any problems with anyone who is.

Oh, yeah, and I think it would be impossible to have a vegetarian Klingon!

I'm really a dog person. A cat is too distant for me.

1. Wormholes are not timeless, they are just shortcuts. Like if you are traveling from point A to B, a womhole is a shorter distance path.

2. At the speed of light = time would stand still. Faster than the speed of light there are many theories - like tachyons - they are created traveling faster than the speed of light and as the gain energy they slow down!

3. It is still being debated about what time really is.

4. Again, many thories, but if the most popular theory were true (of a 4-D sphere being are universe) then yes, ytou would end of where you started. Think of it as traveling on a balloon (yet +1 dimension), it is "boundless" yet not infinite.

5. I won't really say much, but I am involved with Quantum Physics.

6. IMO - That episode was REALLY bogus. He had supposedly achevied infinite velocity. Warp 1 is the speed of light.

I am going to see them as soon as I possibly can!!!

The matrix is awesome!!!

...and...

These topics belong in the Holodeck board (for entertainment topics)

Yea, I knew about that, Google is sooo cool!

They also have it in such fun languages as pig latin, Bork, bork, bork!, and Elmer Fudd!

If I can make it, possibly +1 to +3.

Also, the shirt idea is cool! I'd want one if you made them.

Cool! Great Skin! I'm using it now!

First, Genetics is very interesting and probably my second favorite field of scientific interest. (First being Quantum Physics and Theoretical Physics)

I believe that cloning is not ethically "wrong", given that this person were treated exactly the same as any other human being (for, cloning is really no different than creating an identical twin!). I, however, think that we should not try to clone a human now. I think we do not have the appropriate technology to do it sucessfully and free of any defects. I also think cloning is less "evil" and more "useless". I se no real signifigant reason to clone a person, as you are just making an identical twin. "Cloning" individual organs or cells, however, I think could be helpul in medicine to remove the need for transplants, and make each a perfect match!

About "designer babies" - this technology is still pretty futuristic. I think it is a very tough issue. For example, if you asked people: "is it right to genetically modify ourselves to remove a cancer-causing gene?", almost everyone would say yes. If you asked: "is it right to make people smarter, or stronger, or better-looking?" you would get mixed replies. I, personally, am in favor of genetically manipulaing human to make ourselfs better. This, in the future could allow humans to rise to heights never before dreamed of. We could rise above poverty, greed, malice, and a whole host of counter-productive human traits. I think the main problem with this is some stigma from the way it has been used in the past (like hitler). Keep in mind, these are just my opinions.

I went and saw it on saturday, it was great!!!

If I remember correctly, there have been numerous satellites powed by fission reactors!

Also, nucler power is great, but it will still take a looonnng time to get to other stars at slower-than-light speeds. I think for inter-stellar travel we really need FTL (faster-than-light) travel. Whether we use wormholes, warp drive, space folders, spatial transducer, or something else, we need FTL.
