A Neverending Story - Cosmologists Find The Nothing!!

08/02/27 ~ Dave Smith

Particle physicists and cosmologists have yet again begun to rejoice over the significance of finding absolutely nothing in their ongoing search for Dark Matter, Unicorns and Fairies. Or so it seems from the physorg.com news of Feb 25: ... [more...]

I'm sure we all share your frustration with this persistant search for these "theoretical inventions" but what really infuriates me is PC/EU critics consistanly asking for proof, evidence, verifiable data etc when they do not even possess these things themselves. But what they have and we don't is sanctification from Official Science.....that is a lisence to get away with scientific fraud.

Precisely... :!:

I hope someone comes up with a smiley for "hitting the nail on the head"... :D

I really needed that laugh Michael. Thanks much

I suspected you were a genius - now you have confirmed it by being a nutcase as well - join Einstein, Newton, Van Gough, Motzart, etal to name just a few.

Wonder what the dynamic is that causes that darn nail to keep popping up again :( ?

Perseverance?

Hard-headedness? *Groan* :x

Glutton for PUN-ishment?

Okay, that's enough...

Haven't you two learned anything at all? It is CLEARLY caused by a black hole interacting with dark energy at the event horizon. Sheeeeesh!! :mrgreen:

But with inflation trying to push everything apart, and black holes trying to pull everything in, both neutron stars and brown dwarfs firing off their axial particle beam weaponry (apparently, the black holes have some pretty impressive plasma cannons themselves these days; probably due to an arms race with brown dwarfs and neutron stars for universal), with dark energy trying to accelerate expansion, and dark matter desperately wanting to gravitate with SOMEthing though otherwise impotently interacting with other matter, shouldn't that tear a hole in the space-time nylons? If you thought "runs" were a problem... LOOK OUT! :!:

Sounds like something a FICTION WRITER would come up with... oh, hang on, one already did his name is HAWKING I think...

I can just see the service a few days after his passing, some Nobel Prize winner getting up and reading a sealed letter Hawking had left for this very occasion.

"... and to all the masses of scientists who took my writings so seriously and have built their reputations and those of their esteemed institutions upon my theories, SUCKED IN BAD!!! Mwah ha ha ha ha ..." :o :o :o :o :o

Dave - its not just any old fiction - It's SCIENCE FICTION.. And as for being SUCKED IN - well that's what Black Holes are supposed to do!


P.S. This new smilie :o is going to entice us to make outrageous comments so we can use it - it is so evocative. :o

Those who wish for a boring stuffy academic to do maths and invent "new physics" when old physics might just do the trick...?

(I don't know... Who?) :D

P.S. I *do* rather like the new and improved smilies... :geek:
