  1. Plastic Surgery!!! Ok, I'm just kidding. Beauty it is not in the object, but in the observer. You will only be able to see beauty if you have the beauty inside of you. Now, if you want other observers to see beauty in you, I know a good doctor.... just kidding again...
  2. Moderation note: Moved the first post of this thread from the math forum thread 5341, because it’s about human psychology, not math. Does anybody knows why people always pick number 3??? You if write down on a piece a paper the numbers 1, 2, 3 e 4 in sequence but not together, then you show to a friend and ask him to pick one of them and tell you what number they picked right away. Well, most people will pick number 3. It's very impressive. B) To make it a trick, you write the number 3 on the other side of the paper before to approach a person. Then you write the four numbers and ask him to pick one. Out of 10 people, 9 you pick number 3 unless they have the numbers 1, 2 or 3 as favorite numbers for some personal reason. Once they say "three" you ask them to flip out the paper. They will have the felling that you have read their mind. People always Freak:eek:UT!! But i have know Idea whey it works. Do you know? :hihi:
  3. We never experienced any thing going faster than a bean of light and it would be contradictory to relativity and so on... We have never experienced extra dimensions either but we use mathematics to imagine it. Quantum Entanglement claims that sub particles have this mysterious long range connection right... So, how do we know that, there is nothing traveling faster than light between those particles? And fast enough to make us believe, in our own microscopic world, that they are connected. Or, if there is extra dimensions, could "this something" traveling between those particles, just finds its short cut through those extra dimensions, to give us the illusion that they are connected? I'm just a ordinary man trying to understand physics and its difference from philosophy.
  4. 17.3 for the universe's age I heard from Stephen Hawking 156 for the universe's diameter I saw on the tv program The Universe (Beyond the Big Bang)
  5. If light is the fastest thing in the Universe, how come the Universe to be 156 billion light years across if it is only 17.3 billion years old??
  6. I'm just some body who is very busy with 3 jobs, family, kids and a huge love for science:confused:
