Good luck with your career as a physicist, Corwin. No hard feelings. I'll even come to the book signing at my local Borders(tm) when your inevitable best seller proves that all of us were wrong; right along with Newton, Kelvin, Einstein, Hawking, Feynmann, Maxwell, Gauss, Schroedinger, Planck, Dirac, Bohr, Curie, Oppenheimer, and of course, Pons and Fleischman. Guess I'll have to read the "about the author" section when it comes out; then I'll finally know where you learned SO MUCH about physics.

I'm done.
At least your timing is perfect.
You are doing the right thing.
If you want to understand physics I recommend that you read books on physics and talk to people in the field. Stay away from pseudo-science and science fiction crap.

It is clear that you did not have any formal education in physics and that is why you confuse basic concepts.

However you have one hell of an attitude and a stubborn pride that only exist in sublime ignorance. Don't worry this is easily cured. Knowledge has never been as easily accessible as it is today.

Being tough and resolute are positive assets but you are wasting them on a lost cause.

Thanks for the entertainment.

Don't mind if I do. Congratulations, NOGO. Top job, Baloo. Well done, Rimstalker and Deimos. Excellent work, graden1, Mageth, tronvillain, notto, and Bill. Sterling performance, Tim Thompson, IesusDomini, Synaesthesia, and all the others I failed to mention. Thanks to all who contributed to driving the death nail into Corwinian "physics":

There's more to Corwinian Sciencethan that. I've noticed in some threads that he also an advocate of Chiropractic, Cryonics and Cold Fusion. (Nice alliteration, hehehe.)

I don't sell any t-shirts, and, have you read the 'news' I've mentioned above?
