Your saying that x=x+1 you cannot interpret any problem that way (I hope 10 years as a registered mech engineer qualifies me to discuss this with you) Please clarify what you are trying to say here, your grammar has lost me a bit. da_ripper: I'm not sure exactly which form of the argument and/or it...

Maybe this will help? Replace the conveyor belt with an infinitely long , flat sheet of ice in the sea and replace the wheels of the plane with skates...<snip> err, no. :roll: Why so stubborn? If the flat sheet of ice were to move backwards relative to the plane, it would be the same as with the co...

Maybe this will help? Replace the conveyor belt with an infinitely long, flat sheet of ice in the sea and replace the wheels of the plane with skates. Position the plane on the sheet of ice and a boat in the sea alongside the plane. The boat holds station relative to the earth. Imagine the sheet of ...

Anybody else have this problem, or know how to fix it? My system runs Doom 3 on h...

ST1R , dont go and get nasty... its a discussion... ok Kankuro, fair enough... So if I go and eat a boat load of baked beans and sit and fart on the bicycle I will start moving forward as well? My problem with the theory that the wheels are unnecesary is that : You are basically saying that you can...

Ok... So you are saying the plane will start moving forward on the conveyor belt and the wheels just spinning faster? Now, the theory says that the conveyor belt will also pick up speed to move at EXACTLY the same speed as the wheels... I know it is the engines pushing the aircraft forward.... Howe...

No offence bro, but I think you are taking this a little too personally. The price bracket that you are looking at in any reasonable area in Gauteng is probably one of the most competitive in Africa. The trick is to be at the front of the line, get the papers as soon as they are delivered to the gar...

Is Carbon Dating also a creationist? I think it's a scientific method. You have to be sentient to be a creationist :wink: Proof once again that sarcasm is not only the lowest form of wit but also notoriously difficult to express in writing.
