"Peaceful" protestsin the USA
Answers: 8 Views: 2064 Rating: 5 Posted: 7 years ago

Actually, I suspect very little would happen. The presidents supporters would praise his forward thinking and his detractors would excoriate him for his hollow promises. Human nature is what it is and has been since we evolved enough to form governments. Cynical, I know, but history supports my cynicism. All we can do is continue to try and control the negative elements that are intent on corrupting  what usually start out as peaceful demonstrations.

climate change
Answers: 2 Views: 1460 Rating: 3 Posted: 9 years ago

So, I guess all of those climate scientist are wrong, even though it is a huge majority of them that say this is different? I don't suppose they took past climate fluctuations into consideration, after all they are only experts in their field. Well, that's good, now I can relax. Of course, part of the problem is all those righties that wouldn't know a scientific fact if it walked up and introduced itself. Methane is a problem because it affects the climate to a greater extent at lower levels than carbon dioxide and is produced by cattle at large levels because of the size of the beef industry and now there is the contribution of fracking in the natural gas industry. People are going to disagree on this topic, but what they better get together on is how to mitigate some of the problems that are starting to occur.

why bad things happen to good people?
Answers: 6 Views: 1536 Rating: 3 Posted: 9 years ago

Because all of life and the universe is mathematical. The reason that bad things happen to good people is because in the hard world of math they are a statistic and nothing more. While good is something to aspire to it is off set by the factors of evil. It all boils down to probabilities and odds.

How long did the big bang last,
Answers: 3 Views: 1536 Rating: 5 Posted: 10 years ago

The big bang wasn't actually an explosion, but an inflation that happened in a tiny fraction of a second at the sub-atomic level faster than the speed of light. It continues to expand today 14. 5 billion years later, but at a much slower rate.

does space end
Answers: 5 Views: 1572 Rating: 1 Posted: 9 years ago

Space had a beginning and so must be finite. However, it is expanding so rapidly that we would never be able to get beyond it, so, for all intents and purposes it may as well be endless and also the light at the end of the universe is so far away that it hasn't reached us yet, so there hasn't been a satisfactory answer yet.

why isThe speed of action potential propagation and synaptic transmission decreases with aging.
Answers: 2 Views: 1048 Rating: 0 Posted: 10 years ago

To keep it simple, it's because of the old coot syndrome. I know this because, I myself, have reached cootdom. By the way, don't confuse this with Coots which are several birds native to north America and Europe. I mean this in affectionate terms of a lecherous, crotchety, annoying, elderly pervert.
