light and dark travel at the same speed.
you are forgetting dark matter.
for every photon traveling in one direction,
there is essentially an anti photon emitting dark in the opposite direction, at the same speed.

the word 'emitting' is not technically correct, but screw you I ate yams.

High-ER pressure pushes.:D

So what did this MF order? You're killing me, smalls.

Is *this* how you keep a moron in suspense?

Two possible answers, as facts conflict:
1) Lunch, as breakfast is only served until 9:45
2) Nothing, there are only 39 rows in this train.

Nice try, but your lack of knowledge is showing. I gave you everything you need to solve the problem. It's all there.

Here is another hint since none of you seem to be able to solve the simplest of problems, let alone intelligently discuss the pros and pros of my device.

The engine is NOT a diesel. If you can't solve it now you really don't know what you're talking about.

And where did Dolt-land 911 go? Come on big man...we're waiting. What's the answer?

Yes I do, and the engine is a diesel. It has to be due to the 42nd row effect. That is well known in Newtonian physics. You have no idea what you're talking about.

The engine can't be a diesel because:

FC=e^(hp)*L*cf

where
FC=Food Car
e=electric engine
hp=hewlett packard
L=Luggage
cf=caboose factor

Don't talk Newton to me. I worked with him when he was at Boeing designing the L-1011.

WE'RE WAITING>>>

Wrong Nostraticdamus, you need to multiply the above by Rr/Rt

where
Rr= row of passenger
Rt= total # of rows

And as there is no caboose on a passenger train, cf=1

Can trips to the lavatory and obscure sideglances from passenger to passenger factor into any of this?

OMG. . .you are so RONG!

did you just pull that eqn out of yer butt and re-arrange it?

The proper form is:

L=FC/(cf*e^hp)

"L" is not for "Luggage". . ."L" is for Lutfisk . .. "lg" is for "Luggage".

"cf" is for "cooling factor"
"e" is for "elements(natural)"
"hp " is "heap"

. . .and then, of course, "FC" is for "Fish Carcase."

dude, if yer gunna use an eqn, pick the right one.
sheesh!

Oh, and Boeing didnt design the L-1011 POS.

>>>>>>>>>>>if my butt is a book, then yes I did. Where do you get your equations, WalMart?

>>>>>>>>>>wrong again. Did you go to school in some third world country? Or did you just stop learning after you left school?!? My equation is correct, from years on experience selling things, and backed up by my engineer friend Issac Newton. In fact, Newton sponsors my race car. But I don't have any financial ties to him. Or Euclid. But I did work with them, and helped Archimedes design the screw. And bolt too.

>>>>>>>>>>>oh right. Next you're going to tell me Lockheed didn't design the 707, 727, 737, and A300. What you don't know about stuff is mind boggling. I just present facts. Right facts. Wright facts. You bring lies. I bring videotape. You bring masking tape.

Dark is what I would see if I did what Bill Clinton did..;)

Can I bring a midget? Just for conversation?

no. not until dolt-land answers the question and shows himself to be the dolt that he doltly is.

I don`t know about the speed of dark, but considering that this obscure thread goes pretty fast, I can imagine that pure dark goes even faster. But again, it is not the dark itself that is fast, but the particles that fill it. Because the darker it is, the less particles are there to interact and slow down the incoming particles.

For instance, if you throw a midget in the dark, he will probably go faster than if you thow him in a group of midgets. But you will probably never know for sure, since you can`t see anything in the dark. I am not sure if I make my point clear, by I appologize in advance for all the midgets who will be thrown in the dark by those skeptics who don`t beleive me.

A CUP Of COFFEE...........

a good, albeit uneducated guess. Plus you used the british "cup" for volume as opposed to the neo-british "metric-cup". Please pay attention to your formulas. Remember:

C=(nB*hf/dWC)^2M

where C=coffee, nB=number of barristas, hf=hotness factor (a parameter for female barristas), dWC=density of whipped cream, and M=much.

And don't start whining about this formula. I got it from my coffee engineer friend Emil Starbuck who founded Peete's coffee. I also worked with him to invent the first latte.

In as much as midget throwing ("midget toss"), I believe we need input from our Oz-land Pelicans. They most probably have some insight into the art of the midget toss, dwarf hurl and midget curling.

In fact, midget bowling was a big thing in Australia not too long ago.

Midget bowling in the dark could be the answer to the speed of dark, IMHO.

There ya go: Toss the midget

Guys, guys, guys...ya got it all wrong.

It's not DARK, it's BLACK...as in "as BLACK as BLACK can be"...or something like that.

Sorry, no eqn. to support it..but there is this movie I can badly quote from. I was friends with the directors uncles nephew once...but just that once. ;)

Wrong, and Wrong!

Its: L=FC/cf*[Ac*Cn]^hp

Ac = Amtrak Coefficient
Cn = Number of Cars

You guys left out the most vital part of the equation. Whenever Train Compression is calculated, one must factor in the Ac (Amtrak coefficient). Everyone knows that Amtrak is the leader in "Compressing" trains. Geeez, That is year-one stuff people, c'mon!

Spoken like a true Amtrack user!

OK, I'll stipulate that I don't know what he orders to eat, but if he's eating train food, his next order will be Pepto.

BTW, I'm convinced there is a battery of tests that one must fail in order to be hired by Amtrak.

I only injured 55 midgets while attaining my goal og 100 points!
:D :confused: :D :confused: :D

[gump]mi mama always use-ta say "Dark is as Dark does" . . that's all I know abouts dat. [/gump]

IAN: The moment we've all been waiting for...Here we go, plenty for everybody...here you are.

DAVID: I never thought I'd see...I never thought I'd live to see the day.

IAN:What do you think?

DEREK: Is this the test pressing?

IAN: No, this is it, yes, that's right...

DAVID: This is "Smell The Glove" by Spinal Tap....

IAN: That's "Smell The Glove" that's, that's the jacket cover, it's going out across the country in every store.

DAVID: This is the compromise we made...this is the compromise you made?

IAN: Yes.

DEREK: Is it going to say anything here, or here along the spine?

DAVID: It's not going to say anything?

IAN: No, it's not going to say anything.

NIGEL: It's going to be like this, all black...

IAN: No, it's going to be that simple, beautiful, classic! ?: Does look a little bit like, you know, black leather...

DEREK: You can see yourself in... both sides.

DAVID: I feel so bad, I feel so bad about this...

NIGEL: It's like a black mirror.

DAVID: Well, I think it looks like death...it looks like mourning. I mean it looks...

IAN: DAVID, DAVID, every, every movie, in every cinema is about death; death sells!

NIGEL: I think he's right, there is something about this, that's that's so black, it's like; "How much more black could this be?" and the answer is: "None, none... more black."

DAVID: I think, like you've, like rationalizing this whole thing like into something you did on on purpose. I think we're stuck with a very, very stupid and a very, and a very dismal looking album, this is depressing.

NIGEL: DAVID!

DAVID: This is something you wear around your arm, you don't put this on your ****ing turntable.

NIGEL: DAVID, it's a choice.

IAN: I frankly think that this is the turning point, okay? I think, I think this is...we're on our way now.

NIGEL: I agree, I agree...

isn't that a goose, and not a duck.

quiet, you!

Fug you...

Fug you too! Pseudo intellectuals bore me. That's not to say there are no intellectuals in Southern California. I was fortuate enough to meet him...several decades ago...

The Pope? Richard Nixon?

These are NO pseudo intellectuals they is the real thing.

"God made idiots first, for practice, then he made intellectuals". Mark Twain

I tried to say something pithy, but I am at a loss for words, so I deleted it all. You know I can't tell the difference between Kansas and OZ anymore. They are both filled with Munchkins. Boards full of them to be exact, but thats another story. The one thing I am proud of though are the Ruby Slippers Dorothy left me when she went back to Kansas. All I have to do is tap them 3 times...

maybe my math is wrong, but i find dark is actually fast.

you sir are a genius
obviously the passenger ordered fried parsley flakes with a side of frozen mayonaise. because if you keep foldin the samwich it breaks
the speed of dark is 0
thank you and goodnight

I GOT IT....The speed of Darkness is LUCAS ELECTRICS

no, that is the path to darkness, not the speed. In this case, velocity is path-independent. Or maybe path-democratic...I don't know how it registered last election.

No if you buy Lucas you sure are speeding awfull fast down that path though.

ROFL..

"...none more black..."

Haven't heard that line in a while!
