  1. Also antimatter is randomly here (I think). It was discovered by college students examining matter so I imagine it is here.
    I'm not really sure what you mean. Anti-matter and matter annihilate each other on contact, so I doubt some college students would randomly find some, especially considering how difficult it wold be to detect. Anti-matter isn't found naturally on earth for similar reasons as to why Darmstadtium-267 isn't found naturally.
    Just to clear things up' date=' I am pretty sure he talks about a separation of Anti-Matter and Matter. Not Anti-Matter of Anti-Matter.

    But just for the record if you collide matter and anti-matter it leads to a total anihilation of both almost instantly, how would you have the time to seperate them again???? It doesn't seem possible.[/quote']His suggestion was to power a fission bomb with anti-matter.

    @Zac No he didn't, I said we can;t get ahold of anti-matter for even a second. I didn't say we can make anti matter and get ahold of it for under a second! :{
    Several anti-hydrogen atoms were trapped for over 16 minutes by a Canadian team. http://www.cbc.ca/news/technology/story/2011/06/06/science-antimatter-atoms-fujiwara-antihydrogen.html
  2. Computer addiction probably and I used to drink too much soda but I've cut down a lot recently.

    half-a-pack a day smoker, i like junk food, and part of my ritual is doing vocal stuff for about 2 hours...don't ask.
    Doesn't it seem like a bad combination? Smoking and singing/smoking and living?
  3. Just recently found out I can host the server, but I can't play unless it's an hour or two before the time you have it set for.

     

    Reason is, I run the A/V for my church on Saturdays at 4:30, so I have top be there early (by as much as an hour) and it's a 30 minute drive to get there... Plus you have to include time to get ready for church before leaving home...

     

    If we have another mass at 6:30, then I also have to take my PC with me... We don't this weekend, so it's not a problem to host the server this time.

     

    Overall, I have to be able to be offline by the time you currently have it set for.

    That's no problem. I think it would make sense to push the time back a few hours anyways. How about 11:30 AM?
  4. Anti-matter is matter with a reversed magnetic charge. For example an atom of anti-matter Helium-4 would be composed of 2 negatively charged anti-protons, two neutrally charged anti-neutrons and 2 positively charged anti-electrons or positrons. It's famous for it's destructive power due to the reaction that occurs when anti-matter and matter react. Anti-matter and matter annihilate each other into pure energy making it effectively the most powerful reaction possible (E-MC^2). But other that it's magnetic charge (and thus it's reaction with matter) it's exactly the same as matter. Fusing anti-matter in the same manner as matter would yield the exact same results as fusing regular matter, and in fact the anti-matter products that would be produced would react with the matter surrounding it producing energy from mass in a similar reaction. Anti-matter interacts with anti-matter in the same way matter interacts with matter.

     

    In short, dropping an anti-matter cat on a city would get about the same results as an anti-matter nuclear weapon of the same mass because they both generate energy from the same source, mass.

     

    I could probably explain better if I wrote more, but I'm not one for reading a wall of text myself. :P

    I encourage anyone (btgbullseye most likely) to point out mistakes or flaws (non-grammar flaws btg) in my post by the way. I'd like to make sure my knowledge is correct.

     

    EDIT: I noticed your post was talking about splitting anti-matter so I assume you were thinking a fission weapon. The problems would be the same.

  5. I can't tell you how hard I lol'd at this, just spend a bit more time here and you'll find out why.

     

    I do know what cupcakes is, I read through it and I liked it, didn't ruin Pinkie Pie's character at all for me...

    Which is why Rainbow Dash is our official psychopath on the forums.
  6. I'm looking for an Eternal Reward, Brass Beast, Tomislav, The Enforcer, Detonator, Liberty Launcher, Black Box, Cow Mangler, and The Winger... Take your pick.
    I'll trade you Enforcer, Detonator, Black Box and Amputator for Name and Description tag.

    Not the Amputator... I already have one, and I'm not into having lots of duplicate items...

    You can craft items you know. :P Of course as it turns out you can't trade items. :problem:. Just buy a sticky jumper or something! It's $0.50 and awesome!
  7. Probably this building when I got my passport:

    4ba80e54ebc14369f481dc2465f4_grande.jpg

    Not very tall but I don't have much reason to go downtown and I haven't really gone to any foreign cities.

     

    What's your favorite drink?

  8. Doing whatever on my computer. Only two days left before school again. :(

    Choosing my next book. I have at least ten in my reading queue (I'm somewhat of an impulsive buyer).

     

    I think I'll start with this small one from Stephenie Meyer, "The short second life of Bree tanner". Shouldn't take more than a couple of hours, 177 pages in large print.

     

    Yes, I like Twilight, deal with it.

    Twilight Sparkle's your favorite pony? That's cool.
