<quote>REAL GLASS fiber optics are heavier than copper cable, with the approximate atomic weight of copper being 29 and silicon dioxide being 30 having two oxygen atoms at 8 and one silicon atom at 14.</quote>

<quote><p>The plastic stuff is even heavier, (C5O2H8) for a total of approximately 54. Glass handles more power than pretty much every plastic given its lower thermal conductivity and higher tolerance to heat buildup.</p><p>Extremely thin glass fiber can be almost as flexible as a plastic fiber, and carry more energy.</p></quote>

atomic mass has little to do with the mass density of solid structure, for the matter. For plastics it is even a more complicated matter, even for plastics made of a single monomer, depending on the condition the plastic is formed there may be different density.

Your geek badge is herein revoked. not only that you should not tell others to go back to their chemistry class, it is you who need to go back to your high school physical chemistry.

This illustrate a problem: People think that CS degree is a degree training programmers - they are simply wrong.

<quote><p>The G4 is to the G5 as the Pentium 3 is to the Pentium 4 :)</p></quote>

Sorry, but i just don't get it... do you mean that the G4 is 1) clocked slower, 2) having a superior, more efficient architecture, 3) don't use as much energy compared with G5?

Speaking as a medical doctor, yes, urine is considered sterile if you are talking about healthy people. More accurately, the mid-portion of urine, should be sterile (the first part of the urine would usually be contaminated by bacteria sitting at the opening)

bacteria in urine (usually) means urinary tract infection.
