What is......
 
the speed of dark?

OOOOOW MY HEAD!

Don't do that right after a thread like ERam!

Infinity plus one is still infinity,
but what is infinity minus one? Has to be something less than infinity, right?
Seriously, I've been wondering.

nostatic 11-25-2003 09:19 PM

-3x10^8 m/s

either that or a google. Let me ask my 7 year old...

Eric Coffey 11-25-2003 11:52 PM

speed of dark = sound of silence, squared

:D

Eric Coffey 11-25-2003 11:55 PM

Actually, if you think about it, the speed of dark is anything faster than the speed of light!

Knew a guy who was so fast that he could flip off the lights and get in bed before it got dark.

Infinity minus one is infinity. There are several levels of infinity, by the way. (We would all agree that the set of all integers is less in size than the set of all real numbers - Real numbers include all rational and irrational numbers - but yet both are infinite). From my old math training, it seems like I recall the levels of infinity being Aleph 0, Aleph 1, etc. If I get motivated, I'll see if I can find out any more from some old math books.

The Dark has no speed. You wouldn't even know you were in the dark unless there were light. It takes light to differenciate the dark.

Shift to spiritual point - Jesus said to his followers - "you are the light of the world". By its mere presence, good drowns out evil (following the analogy of light drowning out darkness). So, stand up for what is right!

Yes, there are different levels of Infinity, just as there are different levels of Accura and Lexus.

Is it time for you to take another pill?

If a camera flashes in a dark room, the begining of the flash (of light) will travel at the same speed as the last bit of of light in the flash.
SO, since the absence of light is "dark". . . it follows that light and dark will travel at the same speed.

V(dark)=C

Eric Coffey 11-26-2003 08:21 PM

If you travel at any speed greater than the speed of light, away from a single light source, it would be dark though wouldn't it?



Just think, if we devote as much time an enery to this thread as we did to the eRam thread, we might be able to figure out time travel!

:D

The Amazing Zanick already patented it; he sells it a dime per trip.

Ignore the man behind the curtain.

dd74 11-26-2003 09:47 PM

Okay, I can figure this out...no I can't...

Wait, alright. Dark: dark has no speed. It's an absorbant. It exists as a void and voids don't move. Things fall into voids, and those things are at speed.

Black holes and such...

Nope; Dark is the absence of light energy.

. . and so now, dd74; if you learned anything from the amazing zanick, you should refute my assertion by telling me I'm wrong, because you know the guy who designed & invented the Acme "Portable-Hole" AND the Acme "Paint-on Tunnel". . . .both based on the proper equations pertaining to "dark". ;)

nostatic 11-27-2003 08:00 AM

Island you're wrong.

E=mc^2
E=hv

Therefore E=E. But we all know from the 4th law of thermodynamics that the energy of the universe is tied to entropy, enthalpy, and enharmonic convergence, so E=(0.5)E*g/G^gG

See? You're wrong. And as my good friend and parter engineer David St. Hubins said in his presentation to the 42nd annual Irreproducible Results Symposium:

"Well, I don't, I don't really think that the end can be assessed...uh as of itself as being the end because what does the end feel like, it's like saying when you try to extrapolate the end of the universe you say the...if the universe is indeed infinite then how what does that mean? How far is is t...is all the way and then if it stops what's stoppin' it and what's behind what's stoppin' it, so what's the end, you know, is my...question to you.... "

DonDavis 11-27-2003 08:24 AM

Oh yeah? Well if you really want your head to hurt, figure this one out.

If a man speaks in a forest and a woman is not there to hear him.....is he still wrong? :confused:

I'll be in the bathroom. I gotta go see a guy about a horse.

Is that a quote from Fitty-cent?

As far as Acme products go, yes, they were designed in part to defy dimensions and engage parallel universes. In most cases this only partially worked when utilized by squab-hungry geniuses.

I DON'T BELIEVE IT :mad:. . .maybe if you had a patent, it would all be true. :D

"42nd annual Irreproducible Results Symposium" -LOL-

"In most cases this only partially worked when utilized by squab-hungry geniuses."
hahaha. . . Can someone morph Baghdad-Bob with Wile E. Coyote' so we know who we're talking to, on that shEEp-Ram there?
