Anonymous Coward (OP) User ID: 32109042 United States 02/03/2013 05:50 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I've noticed media in general are beginning to attack the internet and peoples comments a lot more lately Quoting: Skuzzlebutt Yes. This was my point. In the linked story they discuss a study they did showing two groups of people a story about a new technology (nanotechnology) and showed one group boring comments and the other group comments where people showed strong opinions. Both sets of comments showed similar opinions, just one with opinions expressed more strongly/emotionally. Those showed the "stronger" comments had stronger opinions on the subject article. Laying a "scholarly" groundwork for considering discussion boards harmful and for comments to undermine society/scientific discourse/peace and tranquility. |

Sargeant Major Trouble 32 User ID: 12086234 United States 02/03/2013 06:02 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | With a name like the guy offering his opinion, I smell a commie Quoting: Anonymous Coward 22065781 Whatever happened to better dead than red? Nowadays it seems if it aint red make em dead. what does a commie smell like then? Like government cheese, or whatever cologne Obamination wears. do you know we (western dairy comsuming nations) smell like sour milk to asians? i agree every nation has a smell based on their diet but specific political groups do not its kinda sad you associate politics with smells its a fanastic human sense we dont appreciate lecture over Well that explains why the Asians don't seem to mind me as much as the other westerners around. I don't consume BGH tainted dairy. As far as associating smells with commies goes, you have heard of a joke before. But government cheese isn't really a type of cheese, it's welfare. I should have clarified my post earlier. I shouldn't have assumed you would understand. I guess dancing tutu guy wasn't enough. Sorry for that.

Heck, at one point science claimed the earth was flat and you could sail over the edge. Science is just a fancy way of saying 'Im right and you are wrong until you can prove me wrong neener neener' |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 32109042 Every discipline develops a priesthood. Every priesthood develops dogma to protect the priesthood. Every dogma seeks to exclude all competing dogmas. Using emotional pressure at first, political pressure later, and fatal force if necessary. And "layman" publications like Scientific American often serve to convey the pronouncements of the priesthood, without the substantive discussion and doubts surrounding those pronouncements, and certainly not to teach a professional mindset (which is usually quite aggressive, not "fuzzy") of these disciplines. |

Using emotional pressure at first, political pressure later, and fatal force if necessary. You're quite astute, I am amazed to see another person who realizes modern science is actually a faith based religion with exactly the same control mechanisms in place. This is not real science by definition BTW, real science is pure empiricism , there is no room for faith in any discipline of science. When particles were first observed moving past light speed ,pseudo scientists that prevail in academia realized the implications and modern science called these PARTICLES cosmic "RAYS"(mass in excess of C disqualifies almost all modern physics) to avoid admitting all of General relativity, special relativity and quantum physics had been disproved by empirical observation. And billions of dollars is pumped into research that is patently ridiculous, when it could be spent on making actual advancements that could help the human race. It is a criminal conspiracy against us all. |

anonymous astrophysicist User ID: 1946597 United States 02/03/2013 06:58 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The question is. What are they trying to hide? bad science? Quoting: NightWisp Sounds like the white house in cover-up mode. So much for integrity or transparency. They are trying to keep in place a caste system. If all of what we actually know today were allowed to be turned into technology, there would be no place or need for haves and have nots. We could all live in plenty in a real utopia where every need was easily provided for, every problem easily solved. Tesla knew and wrote about this and that is why he, who was actually the greatest scientist to ever live, is footnote in history portrayed as an egocentric nutcase. It's pure evil greed. |

Quoting: anonymous astrophysicist 1946597 I'm going to leave that alone, because unless you cite your >c reference, I'm not going to argue. Quoting: Professor Xavier Cosmic rays were never presented at moving c+, just having wave characteristics as far I was aware. I don't want to be argumentative with someone who is obviously aware of the same thing I am, but empiricism means the "proof is in the pudding", not in what you are told it tastes like or what's in it. Cosmic "Rays" DO NOT have any wave characteristics , they move in precisely linear fashion, and are mostly neutrons with energy levels in the billions of electron volt range. If you are a professor as your moniker indicates, do the calculation. We know the mass of a nuetron and knowing it's energy level it's velocity is easily derived using the classic and well proved KE formula , KE=1/2 (mass X velocity squared). You know the mass and you know the energy, I don't need references, do I? In this case I AM THE REFERENCE, if you will forgive my forwardness. I am telling you something you never thought to question is a farce, and I gave you the tools to prove it to yourself. A particle with a mass of 1 atomic mass unit with an energy level of 5-100 Gev is moving WELL PAST LIGHT SPEED. |

anonymous astrophysicist User ID: 1946597 United States 02/03/2013 07:53 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I need to make two corrections to my reply to the professor. Cosmic rays are by the classic definition actually mostly protons quantitatively, but those tend to be the on the low spectrum of the energy level of comic "rays". It is neutrons that have actually been measured with energy levels in the billions and even trillions of electron volts. These are moving many times the speed of light Here is reference that indirectly reveals the truth without coming right out and saying it (if the author had, it would never had been published): [link to pdg.lbl.gov] |

anonymous astrophysicist User ID: 1946597 United States 02/03/2013 08:15 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Proof cosmic rays exceed light speed, from their own pens: Most galactic cosmic rays have energies between 100 MeV (corresponding to a velocity for protons of 43% of the speed of light) and 10 GeV (corresponding to 99.6% of the speed of light). Quoting: [link to www.srl.caltech.edu] Now note that at an energy level of 10 GeV the velocity is ADMITTED to be 99.6% the speed of light and they strategical did not mention the much higher energy level particles because they are moving in excess of light speed! What do you suppose a 1 TeV particle (1 trillion electron volt cosmic rays are not common but are repeatedly detected) is moving at? A 100 GeV particle(very common energy level for cosmic rays)? Only the most intelligent can interpolate this information and what it means. There is simply no way of arguing against the facts. |

anonymous astrophysicist User ID: 1946597 United States 02/03/2013 08:40 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | For those of you unaware, there has long been a control mechanism of "gatekeepers" in place to squelch people like myself who would reveal the truth about science in tradition academic circles and in the publishing industry, but the internet introduced a new venue, a new way for people like me to express our ideas and what we know. And now they are seeking to stop that. It IS that simple, and no, I wasn't making up what I said about them silencing me, any given post could be my last and I have been repeatedly threatened with death |
