lets say it: sometimes teachers don't know exactly what they are doing. after all, aren't they Human? the problem is that they usually do not assume their mistakes, because they think it wouldn't be right for them to be corrected by students. Posts: 38 | Registered: Sunday, April 3 2005 08:00 |

i guess Chrono Trigger for SNES ruled, and still rules it all. i prefer the SNES, mostly because it has much better RPGs than Genesis, like Final Fantasy and Zelda. Of course Phantasy Star stays for history, particularly PS4. [ Saturday, May 28, 2005 06:04: Message edited by: imho ] Posts: 38 | Registered: Sunday, April 3 2005 08:00 |

i only had one such experience she was... *sniff*... i was thinking about how to express my thoughts and i came up with the folowing: "you are very beautiful". she smiled, and then she told me she liked someone else. And guess what? We were in the same class. Me and she i mean. it was traumatizing. Never liked any girl again. but at least the line is good. Was. Well, sort of.

sorry it took me so long to reply, but i had some problems with my ISP when i said i was a genius, just in case someone didn't noticed, i was joking my english may note be that good, but it isn't that bad. however i am a good writer in my native language, which is portuguese from what you have said, in the US, physicists are very respected the same does not happen here. where i am from, engineers are much more respected than physicists. Actually, most people don't know what physiscs is. Alas, most people can only think of doctors, lawyers and engineers as worthy-of-respect individuals. Besides, around here, i can earn 2,3, maybe 4 times more money as an engineer than as a physicist. That is, if i am lucky enough to find an employer who would hire a physicist oh, and if you are wandering, i am from Portugal that said, i love physics and maths, i am curious and intelligent, but i feel unsafe about chosing either of them something else you could advice me?

i like physics mostly because of theory and the difficulty is not scaring(last year i had a school average of 19.38 out of 20, without breaking a sweet). my problem is that i find many grades interesting besides from languages and biology, i like pretty much everything, with special attention to maths and physics as i said Posts: 38 | Registered: Sunday, April 3 2005 08:00 |

my schooling system isn't like that of the US to try those options, i would actually have to complete a semestry in each of them. and that would give me a poor idea, since the first year is very similar for all of those, ya know, maths and physics.

i am currently in High School, and i will be entering college next year. it so happens that i haven't yet decided about my future path since i have a knack for maths and physics, i was thinking about choosing Informatic Engineering, Mechanics Engineering or Physics but i just can't decide any advice about which of the three is better? any other grades you think are interesting? thanks in advance Posts: 38 | Registered: Sunday, April 3 2005 08:00 |

i know that US has no current water issues however, if you combine global warming, pollution and corn growing, which takes about 20Kg for every 1Kg of usable grain, you could in a serious problem besides, ethanol usage does not solve the carbon dioxide issue i'd rather think Hydrogen is a much more reliable energy, although currently expensive. but the electrolysis of water produces Hydrogen and Oxygen, together making a highly energetic mixture. if only we had a cheaper way of producing hydrogen, we would have our energy problems solved Posts: 38 | Registered: Sunday, April 3 2005 08:00 |

biomass will not be our future for one reason: water corn is water intensive, and the underground water reserves in the agricultural US are fastly declinning how are we supposed to sustain an ethanol based economy, if we can't even prevent plants from dying? i am not paniking the estimates for Oil, which are about 40 to 50 years lasting, are about the same for usable water and excuse my english Posts: 38 | Registered: Sunday, April 3 2005 08:00 |

i undertstand that in time, we may master each and every secret about the universe, although this seems unlikely, for every answer who obtain trough science raises another load of questions. but will that knowledge be enough if the universe starts collapsing, and eventually ends?

while discussing miracles, shouldn't we start by assuming there is no God? from what i read in these last pages, it seems there is something no one said. miracles, if you call them that, are very rare, hard to understand, and usually benefit people. this kind of phenomena may also happen in situations not noticed by people. why? because people are, sort of, selfcentered. now then, should a miracle happen that contradicts our expectations, it is not that surprising, because it just turned a situation into something we didn't expected, not something impossible. if there were actually impossible miracles, the whole order of the universe would change, for the laws of science are universal. so, miracles aren't impossible things that happen, they are just a statistic minority. so, if miracles are only rare, but not impossible, why should we associate them with supernatural causes? btw, how can something be supernatural? isn't nature everything that exists?

great stuff in here just a question? most of us aren't graduated in physics, or some aren't even graduated. is all this debate the result of our curiosity? btw, Earth has a magnetic field right? is there anyway we can use it to produce energy, or is it to weak?

to be alive doesn't only mean not to be dead, i guess. for example, one of our cells is not dead, yet, if we separate it from the body it dies. to be alive should mean to be autonomus. and as far as i know, human embrions(spelling?) only become autonomus after 25 weeks. so, in my concept they are not alive. however they can already fell pain, so abortion should only be done before the embrion acquires the ability to fell pain but the biggest danger in abortion is that it is used as a prevention method, which is unacceptable Posts: 38 | Registered: Sunday, April 3 2005 08:00 |

thanks a lot. i would like to see you stating something similar about nuclear energy 100 years ago. don't be so negative. and i already knew the stuff you said i assume that if we react matter with anti-matter in magnetic containment, we should obtain gamma rays. isn't there anyway to turn highly energetic radiation in to useful energy?

i didn't want to state my view in the begining science gives us power. a great deal of it. philosophy is required to control that power, better said, to control us. on the other hand, religion was the first explaination for things, with gods and such, and it was the first to give our life a sense. it so happens that philosophy, which in gaining popularity these days, states that who are the ones who should give our life a sense, by idealizing a life project. and science is much better at explaining things than religion. whats my point? religion is no longer necessary, and thus is slowly vanishing note: if there is a god, creator, or something else is another issue. but i truly believe that our level of self respect should stop us from worshipping Him. this is very well represented in geneforge, by the Awakened (omg, i manage to embarass myself) but God's existence is being discussed is another topic, so lets stick to the issue at hand Posts: 38 | Registered: Sunday, April 3 2005 08:00 |

damn you, i am still in high school but i am sharp, both in inteligence and curiosity probably more on curiosity say, if i wanted to make an anti-matter engine, capable of producing massive amounts of energy, how should i proceed? Posts: 38 | Registered: Sunday, April 3 2005 08:00 |

what about if we end up killing ourselves? the current climate circunstances indicate a great increase in average temperature in the next 100 years. that means changes in the global sea stream, which will cause constant natural floods, droughts, etc. and what would Men do in the face of this? probably fight for the remaining resources or hopefully not Posts: 38 | Registered: Sunday, April 3 2005 08:00 |

wow, *i is on fire i can admite that god is an almighty creator, though it sounds strange, but it is conceptualizable. my problem resides in understanding how is it possible that no one, or if you want, mankind can't understand God's ways. if something makes sense, we should be able to understand it. and since our world can actually be studied by science, it must make some sense. therefore, if we can understand our world, why can't we understand its creator. i mean if we are able to explain how His creation works, why can't we figure out how he thinks? unless we deny the existance this spiritual being Edit: i see your point Ash. it seems that people who believe in god just don't give up on that, nor those who don't belive in him will give up on not believing. all this talking may be ultimately useless, for there will be no one changing his view about the issue [ Saturday, April 09, 2005 16:43: Message edited by: imho ] Posts: 38 | Registered: Sunday, April 3 2005 08:00 |
