As far as I know, there is currently no basis for assuming that it is relativity that is wrong (or that is the only one wrong).
My personal theory is in line with Have Brain Will Rent (just below), that relativity and quantum mean completely different things by "time". But that's just a guess.
... and the memory fades with age. But I seem to remember a time when this was a free country, with due process of law and such.
The fine article says that this results limits the number of possible quarks. Can someone give an explanation (or even the outline of one) at a level that someone with a B.S. in physics can understand?
We just had the Super Bowl. People payed 2.4 million dollars to air one 30-second-long commercial.
Were they stupid? Or did they actually know what they were doing? Can they really make a difference in people's behavior in 30 seconds of passive viewing?
My belief is that the advertisers are not stupid - that it actually pays. But if so, arguing that all the sex and violence on TV - or in video games - has no effect, when people are exposed to hours and hours of it, seems rather naive. 30 seconds of a commercial changes people's behavior, but hours and hours of program don't? I'm sceptical...
Look, I'm not supporting Jack Thompson here. As far as I can tell, he's an obsessive jerk who is happy to stretch the truth beyond all recognition to try to advance his crusade. I don't want anything to do with him. And yet, his basic premise - that video games can change people's behavior in negative ways - seems to me to be completely reasonable. More than that, it seems to be supported by the actions of the advertisers, who bet millions of dollars that they can change our behavior via what we watch.
