Sound waves are changes in the distribution of particles within a volume over time. The sound wave itself is a byproduct of the particles compressing closer together or stretching farther apart. You might be in love with the idea of describ

I think, in most cases, the sound is omitted, since it's often the least interesting aspect of the event, and being a little underwhelming, almost detracts from the visuals. They aren't like loud, irregular rolling thunderclaps, w

Interestingly enough, as a fun side effect of radial motion, the lateral motion of shadows can transit an object exceeding speeds faster than the speed of light constant, C . From Wikipedia: Light spots and shadows If a laser beam i

Since gravity is a symptom of the presence of matter, gravitational changes ride along with matter travelling as fast as the matter (responsible for this gravitational symptom) can possibly move. At best, only the destruction of matter can

A gravitational constant that is the same everywhere in the universe and is incompatible with a fifth force. The fallout of this ramification is that, gravity is some sort of ambient side effect of material presence, sort of l

There's a lot of hysteria surrounding these freebie swag items, enough that you have to wonder if either exactly this sort of reaction was expected, and their laughing at exactly the expected level of fear and paranoia produced at the

It doesn't sound like they actually compared apples to apples by performing the same test as a modern replication of results though. A similar apparatus is not named or sited, when noting the modern equivalent. Does that matter? Couldn

Actually, they both do the same thing, but attack different sides of the mood slope. Which you'd know, if you ever stopped to consider how to adjust your mood with either. Caffeine introduces anxiety and irritability on downslope, afte

The Victorians. Kind of an artificial make-believe people set. Better to suppose "some" and not generalize for the universe of all possible people. Furthermore, nowhere is the process of measurement, or quality measured, noted. Is

It feels like there's a premeditated process, here, in terms of timing. 1. Tobacco Cigarettes emerge as public health scare in the late 1990's. 2. McDonaldsization of Coffee via Starbucks in the late 1990's. 3. Cigarettes tax

There's one theory, notably absent, from the entire cavalcade of possibilities that no one seems to highlight... 1. D.B. Cooper boards the plane. 2. D.B. Cooper reveals a bomb, and with it, his intent to kill everyone on the plane, pla

This continues to invert the premise. The intersection of appealing things and functional things is more interesting that either taken in isolation.
