MacMan5000: still PSAT wasted, but i'll make it madwingnut: i was playing piano...that's why i was late. i never notice the passage of time at the keyboard... MacMan5000: i was watching the baseball game. it's depressing, the way the mets are throwing it away so late. Poledrawolf: I was looking up anime on the internet timlu42: Hmm. Three different paths... I was reading MacMan5000: where's meredith? she's the one who bugged me to come. madwingnut: she disappeared mysteriously lizardlizard42: i think she'll be on later...

Batz1maru1: woops madwingnut: thanks for the answers, both of ya madwingnut: i showed it to my friends in calc and they were like, whoa scary Batz1maru1: ahaha timlu42: Sorry I couldn't help... MacMan5000: oh yeah, the pi thing...i couldn't follow that lol Batz1maru1: Tim loved that equation madwingnut: so i told them i'd email my trusty SSP mafia timlu42: except to say who knew it madwingnut: they were all, wow... MacMan5000: were they intimidated by us? ::-) MacMan5000: shoot, raised eyebrows don't work? :-( timlu42: Yeah, true beauty... i've been bugging my calc teacher for weeks to show me WHY madwingnut: i think the infinite series might! hehe madwingnut: we haven't gotten that far yet...but it would be fun to bring up when we do madwingnut: has he explained it, tim? Batz1maru1: Actually, I looked into that, and found a calc proof for that equation madwingnut: where did u learn that equation anyway? Batz1maru1: um, I forgot timlu42: Soto mentioned it to us last year timlu42: erm, Soto's my calc teacher Batz1maru1: You can find it on the net MacMan5000: i knooow my calculuuus, it says yooou plus meee equals uuuuus...ok, so i really don't know it, but i made through SSP at least. madwingnut: heh, that was our anthem last year timlu42: Holy crap, you've got to see this video my calc class did! Batz1maru1: Hey, you want to hear something that will blow your minds? lizardlizard42: sure. madwingnut: oh no, more dancing? MacMan5000: lol, yes? timlu42: We have a dance and every thing timlu42: Shoot. Batz1maru1: time dilates more as you approach "c" right? lizardlizard42: yeah... MacMan5000: Who was the "big brother type"? ;-) Batz1maru1: so does time have meaning to a photon? madwingnut: no, right? Batz1maru1: it travels anywhere in an instant Batz1maru1: it's everywhere and nowhere all the time madwingnut: ah, yes...the thought experiment where you shoot photons through several slits, rite? madwingnut: and they form a bell curve, no matter how you aim MacMan5000: duuude....i think that idea just blew a neuron or two, hang on.....*ah* ok better madwingnut: hehe winikits has entered the room. Batz1maru1: Perhaps time is something we use to describe something totally different Poledrawolf: Will, are you going to be a mathematician or a philosopher? madwingnut: what would that something be, though? Batz1maru1: ahhaha Batz1maru1: just a hobby on the side Batz1maru1: don't know madwingnut: one helluva hobby if ya ask me! timlu42: Ay... I'm in Sol's camp on this one. Poledrawolf: I smell double major! Batz1maru1: that princeton experiment where "c" was "broken" could point to time travel lizardlizard42: no one said hello to Crayon.... madwingnut: oh how negligent we are! Batz1maru1: HI WINIKITS! MacMan5000: i dunno, my dad does "philosophy on the side" and it's working pretty well. i'm just starting "sophie's world" myself timlu42: Perdon... many apoligies... Poledrawolf: Hello, Crayon madwingnut: beinvenue! TopQuark95 has entered the room. winikits: salut la room lizardlizard42: yo dude timlu42: Hey dudes madwingnut: we were too absorbed in will's postulating MacMan5000: g'morning, or g'evening, whichever winikits: hey there suneil Batz1maru1: SUP madwingnut: hi suni Poledrawolf: Hi TopQuark95: hey madwingnut: thanx for that way cool explanation of the equation TopQuark95: yeah... no problem timlu42: Ok, back to the postulating... I was getting worked up too! madwingnut: i'm gonna show it to my clasmates and they'll be blown away TopQuark95: =) MacMan5000: tiff's gonna blow some minds...literally, few minds can handle that kind of stuff... timlu42: That's called the "epiphany moment", no sweeter look than that. Batz1maru1: Add to the postulating tim...  Batz1maru1: where's lizard? lizardlizard42: here lizardlizard42: i timlu42: Nah, math postulating isn't my strength... more along the lines of psychology lizardlizard42: am Batz1maru1: What's everyone doing? madwingnut: oh, i think pretty much everyone has the capability/potential to comprehend Batz1maru1: yeah, i agree Batz1maru1: just if you want to let it in Batz1maru1: that's the only barrier MacMan5000: ...unless we don't comprehend our ability to comprehend. ah! madwingnut: doesn't the stat go that we only use 6% of our brains on avg? Batz1maru1: something around there MacMan5000: i thought it was 10%. whatever. Batz1maru1: Einstein used 2 times that or something madwingnut: i heard that it was false, but i'm not sure... MacMan5000: i'll go ask jeeves. ;-) timlu42: Me too, brains aren't just used for thinking madwingnut: it would be nice to think it's wrong and that we use more! Batz1maru1: false? I think we are more capable than reading books and stuff TopQuark95: mad: I disagree- it leaves us knowing we have room to expand Batz1maru1: There is more to humans... Batz1maru1: like psychic abilities MacMan5000: i agree w/ will on this one. there's got to be something else there we just don't know how to channel. Batz1maru1: "the force" might be "chi" timlu42: Hah! I knew it, somebody was going to bring that up! madwingnut: what's chi? Batz1maru1: inner power timlu42: Chi=spirit madwingnut: ah... Batz1maru1: channeling to attack or heal timlu42: actually it depends who you ask... chi also means morale Batz1maru1: I wish I could do it timlu42: but its all the same madwingnut: we had a whole discussion on the existence of the spirit in religion class...one of our school staff has 3 weeks to live Batz1maru1: lift stones... float around, grab my cup across the room TopQuark95: mad: really? why? madwingnut: breast cancer TopQuark95: (3 weeks to live) TopQuark95: I see. Batz1maru1: damn madwingnut: :'-( Poledrawolf: That's so sad lizardlizard42: shit Batz1maru1: that's projected though right? MacMan5000: whoa....tough stuff there. sorry to hear that. how do they work out the weeks, though? i mean can't she possibly live longer? timlu42: Tough to respond to that... TopQuark95: actually I'm really depressed/sad at this moment b/c one of our family friends just left.. he may have ALS... madwingnut: i dunno, mac Batz1maru1: ALS? TopQuark95: what stephen hawkings has TopQuark95: kills in 2-5 years typically Batz1maru1: oh madwingnut: i'm sorry to hear that! MacMan5000: oh...my grandmother died of that, actually. :-( TopQuark95: yeah, so am I Poledrawolf: :-( MacMan5000: the acronym just slipped my mind there. TopQuark95: what does it stand for anyway? amy-something lateral sclerosis or something, right? MacMan5000: not sure.... madwingnut: did you all read that caltech handout from the rep's ssp visit about how the football team or whatever was gathered around this dude in a wheelchair... lizardlizard42: no.... lizardlizard42: tell more. lizardlizard42: ... madwingnut: and the coach thought the guy was some former famous athlete timlu42: elaborate madwingnut: as it turns out, he was stephen hawking madwingnut: no wonder everyone dropped the game!

I feel rather guilty I'm getting TOO much reading done MacMan5000: i know! i still have my copy from SSP untouched! (i read half of hyperspace, at least, before being forced to move on) timlu42: Makes me feel a bit lazy... MacMan5000: (my copy of elegant universe, that is) madwingnut: where do u find all that time, tim? Batz1maru1: seriously madwingnut: with all the tutoring u do and everything MacMan5000: yeah, tim, where's the stockpile? madwingnut: sharing is caring! madwingnut: i want 3 extra hours added to the day for my 18th birthday timlu42: Dunno... but if I find out how, you guys will be the first I tell. Batz1maru1: Feeling a pillow is a rare occasion for me madwingnut: not much to ask, is it? MacMan5000: that'll work.  Batz1maru1: too much to ask timlu42: But most of the stuff I've been reading has been for research purposes... Senior Projects lizardlizard42: ahhh... sleep...  madwingnut: or rather, the lack of it Batz1maru1: I think I'll do all my studying tomorrow MacMan5000: yep. my stuff has been all fbla-related or ap lit or ap us related. :-P Batz1maru1: ...after 12 that is...

MacMan5000: nah, her stuff wasn't really ironic. TopQuark95: haha madwingnut: it's not ironic that he was at ssp while weezer was in buffalo?

MacMan5000: stupid boogie monsters....think they own the basement... madwingnut: what do u mean one full diameter? Batz1maru1: Since Saturn and Jupiter make up about 93% of the solar system, leaving out the sun, their combined gravity will pull on the sun with significant strength timlu42: Basement? The only thing under my house is foundation madwingnut: okay, drumroll... madwingnut: the student winner of this month's raffle is... madwingnut: HUY!!!!!!!!!!!
