  • Netflix problem(not sure if its netflix or my computer)?

    Every time I click a series on Netflix, it starts me back at the Pilot episode even though I am on a different season. The recently watched is not showing up on the top of my screen. Is this a Netflix problem or my computer? How can I fix it?

  • Has any one seen the movie Flatland?

    If you have:

    In Flatland there are "agreed upon" ideas that are not to be intellectually challenged. Are there similar "agreed upon" ideas in our own society that are generally not acceptable to challenge intellectually?

    In Flatland a three dimensional being visits the two dimensional world of Flatland. How would a four dimensional being manifest itself to us in our three dimensional world?

    If you have not?

    Is time another dimension? What are some of the restrictions on how we perceive time and space?

  • help with this problem?

    A large water tank is serviced by 3 inlet pipes and one drain pipe. Pipe A fills the tank in 6 hours alone at full force; pipe B fills the tank in 9 hours alone at full force; pipe C fills the tank in 15 hours alone at full force. The drain pipe empties a full tank in five hours if no inlet pipe is running.

    Suppose the tank is empty. The drain pipe is open. Pipes A and B are turned on at full force. When the tank is one-third full, pipe C is turned on at full force. When the tank is three-quarters full, the drain pipe is closed. To the nearest minute, how long would it take to completely fill the tank in this scenario?
