anyway, CuriousKid posted the following 1) His theory requires non-local interactions (is not compatible with SR and causality) 2) The "mach" comes from his theory claiming mass is due to the interactions with the rest of the universe (including interactions propagating back in time) So, in my opini...

pardom my ignorance... but while such dragging might make a thruster based on the ME effect unfeasible, it would still prove Mach Effect itself, wouldnt it? Still material for a nobel prize, as far as I see.

probably, how to contact him?

anyone with understanding of the Mach Effect cares to reply at this topic? http://www.physicsforums.com/showthread.php?t=259842 or at least, post here an explanation for this: Of course not. Like I said, that's his argument. The problem, apart from the fact that Woodward's calculation is Just Plain ...

what exactly will impeach this tower of tearing apart? You know, the proposed space elevator needed Carbon Nanotube´s strenght is NOT needed to avoid the cable falling... but to avoid it splitting!

if there was not much fallout, doesnt that mean that we COULD have developed Orion Nuclear Pulse Propulsion spacecrafts?

It's not proxy data. It's a direct measurement of CO2 levels in air trapped in bubbles in the ice. Bubbles in ice have their problems. CO2 drifts in ice. That could lead to low and uniform CO2 levels in older ice. Which makes the CO2 in the ice a proxy for the actual CO2 levels. you assume thousand...

Most of them — and there are a lot — completely missed the point I was making, which isn’t ter...

MSimon is anything BUT that. Hijacking threads to promote your political agenda belongs on the myspace news and ...

remember that declining populations cause LOTS of economic problems, because its the active young population that pays for the retirement of old people. the solution with declining population is for people to retire older and older... the problem with this is that we are living more but usually not ...

for a scientific forum, this place is sadly too much right-wing republican to believe.

i guess most of you guys are creationists too?

the nazis were pretty sure they were doing the right thing... And until there was sufficient resistance how could they be convinced otherwise? the only reason they needed such resistance to be convinced of the contrary was because they followed the exact same things some people here drool about... ...
