So hypothetically speaking, what would happen if Amtrak went out of business? Would the railroads get picked up by someone else?

I'm going to take a shot in the dark and guess that the point was to show us how he has changed as he's gotten older, but I could be wrong.

Can you have time without particles?

The faster that something moves at the speed of light, the more stretched out the time constants become between a stationary point and the moving point. For instance, while you are sitting down reading this, I might be in my car going 65mph. For every second you age, I might age .99999999991...

apparent mass = rest mass * [ 1 / sqrt(1 - v^2/c^2) ] where v is its speed relative to you and c is the speed of light.

No, but it makes you wonder why photons are affected by gravity if they have no mass.

There you go applying your erroneous logic to law. The law states very clearly at what age one is considered an adult. Now, if you are below that age, you are not a legal adult. If you are that age or above, you are an adult. Pretty simple math, isn't it? Now, if you want to debate...

Observed speed and actual speed are two different things, according to Einstein. The best example is a thought experiment. Imagine a man on a train that is traveling 99% of the speed of light. An stationary observer watches as the train shoots by and records the speed at 99% (he's got great...

What made you suddenly believe in God?

This is one of the harder questions that I've researched and it took some time for it to sink it. All of this is anti-intuitive. I will give you a very quick answer and then point you to an excellent site that does a much more complete job of explaining this "paradox." I was told that the...

The maximum value from an observer standpoint is approximately 186,282 miles per second. However, if you are the one doing the traveling, you are essentially covering any amount of distance instantly. If you are in a spaceship that is going the speed of light, you would reach another star...

No, I just went out to drink. All I am suggesting is that we see a pattern here. Science discovers something, and then many years later, it corrects itself. This happens with atoms, quarks, etc and now it is happening with evolution. Also, just because someone doesn't believe in "macro"...

It shoots a wide gapping hole in macro-evolution.

Well my my my! Look at this? What kind of spin will the macro-evolutionists put on this? http://www.newswise.com/articles/view/503020/

I've noticed that just about everyone you debate with gets accused of using "strawman tactics." I'm just curious, but did you grow up on a farm with a lot of straw? Are you a big fan of the Wizard of Oz? Do you sleep on a straw bed? Were you a horse in your former life?

This is a good question. There is something called a "limitation of first sale" that generally means that once a copywrite owner sells something, they lose some measure of control over what the purchaser does with their work. If I purchased a book and later sold it to someone, the copywrite...

Doesn't matter because whoever buys it will surely remove Windows 98 and install a real operating system. :cool:

In that case, so is everything. :confused:

Why is religion and god getting slammed so much lately?
