Has Anyone Else Been Questioning the Constant Nature of Light's Speed?
I have been looking at quite a bit of data, and it appears that some Physicists are questioning the speed of light has always been a constant. It is seeming to answer some fundimental questions about recent observations of self similarity.
5 AnswersAstronomy & Space1 decade agoWhy am I seeing variations in the reflected laser light when I look at the reflection from a diffuse surface?
Here is the experiment. I reflected my tripod laser off of a CFB at my home. I noticed a strange effect and turned the light out to see it better. As I looked closely, I could see small variations in the reflected light. They looked like tiny points of light within the reflection. My first feeling is that it was an effect of the light hitting the photo receptor cells on my cornea. The problem with that was that as I move one way or another, or change the angle of view, I am moving along with the reflected dots. Has anyone seen this in a lab somewhere?

1 AnswerPhysics1 decade agoWhat is so wrong with FM Radio?
I work in the radio business. I have heard many people say that they are tired of radio and would prefer to listen to their IPOD's. Many radio companies have poured money into asking rooms of people what songs they like, what topics they want to hear, what their favorite (everything) is...so what gives? Why has your (personal) radio lisenership dwindled away?

3 AnswersOther - Business & Finance1 decade agoHow will we fight the classes of man that wish to oppress us?
I just finished reading the favored answer of the question posed by Hawking. It brought up a valid point. How will we fight back against the actions of the super wealthy lately. It almost appears as though the upper-middle class is slowly being dissolved. The actions of lawmakers in the US lately is disgusting, but it only scratches the surface of the full problem. Any ideas?

My Pit Bull mix is limping again. It started last night and I did not see anything specificly happen. He and my other dog were playing in my back yard last night and now he is hurting bad.

Why is the government taking away our rights for no reason??
The government can now know when I check a book out from a public library or use a public computer there, but if I buy a $650 laptop with cash and use the public wireless access in my downtown area to plan a jihad, no one can track me.
If I was a terrorist, why would I send a wire transfer overseas when I could just send cash in a UPS box.
I hope that you all think about this before you allow anymore of your freedom to be stripped.
