I found it interesting, figured it might amuse some. I know it's oldish, but I haven't checked my RSS in a while. -------------------- If the world collapses and we find ourselves closer together I'm convinced it would be positive.

What punchline?
-------------------- Every atom in your body came from a star that exploded. And, the atoms in your left hand probably came from a different star than your right hand. It really is the most poetic thing I know about physics: You are all stardust. You couldn’t be here if stars hadn’t exploded, because the elements - the carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, iron, all the things that matter for evolution and for life - weren’t created at the beginning of time. They were created in the nuclear furnaces of stars, and the only way for them to get into your body is if those stars were kind enough to explode. So, forget God. The stars died so that you could be here today. ~Lawrence Krauss

I remember seeing this. Crazy!
Of course, it's always what I thought would happen to me on moving to Montreal--that they'd find me in the spring thaw. ("We thought she was a funny-shaped snowman," authorities said of the girl's rescue. "A Quebecois snowman.") As of yet, I have not been frozen into a drift but have become painfully familiar with the phenomenon of the "font-de-neige sur la tete". -------------------- can I kiss your dopamine? In a way I wonder if she's living in a magazine |

QUOTE (Yannick @ Jan 7 2009, 06:53 PM)  What punchline? The woman was buried when she went out to get the groceries, then at the end that's what the guy who has the rescue dog says he was going to do. -------------------- Trouble Down Pit: Still updated every Monday and Friday
