Matrix countdowns

But if its massless, pure energy, how does the shape of the plane change its direction at all? Oh, wait, is it like the scientist who was able to stop light for miniscule amounts of time, by changing wavelengths, was it? ok, that makes sense, but it goes against everything they taught us about mass v. no-mass and gravity and acceleration...

JediHDM> “Shape of the plane”? Uhrm? If you mean an aeroplane, it’s made of ordinary massive matter. Massive is the keyword here. Ordinary massive matter is made up of atoms.
Photons are just made of photons. When we say the speed of light, we mean in vacuum. That is the universal maximum velocity. Scientists may mess around with light in their laboratories and slow it down, but in vacuum the speed of light is 299.792,458 km / s

umm (carry the one, add the 3)... 43 days left
That's one less than yesterday!!

But 45 more than I'd like 🙁 I can't see it until that Saturday

Man, I'm sure I'm gonna have to jump on this site on Saturday and catch up on all the stuff you guys have said, cuz I ain't comin near this site between wed and sat. 😛

they always teach you stuff that isn't true at first 🙂 because you won't be able to comprehend what is really happening yet. when you've mastered those basics of a certain science, they'll be introducing new concepts, which cast aside what was taught earlier.

yeah, but it just seems to be a waste of time, mine and theirs, if they only show us [] of the whole picture...

well, you understand the basics of physics, if you want to know more, you should study it; it isn't really practical on a day to day basis to know about dark matter, black holes if that's not your field of work/profession.

I am studying to be a computer engineer, so i'll probably get into nanotech, maybe not the secrets of the cosmos, but close enough... 😎

14 days till reloaded dvd wooooo!

2 weeks??? YA WOAH HOO!!! (yes, woah)

heehee

that's in the uk in the us it's 17 days 😈

What about Canada? EASTERN Canada? Say.... Montreal.

i dunno i just no its friday 10th in the uk and monday 13th in the us, but you get m3 2 days earlier, again ne spoilers between 5th and the 7th and (insert threat)

I don't know if anybody mentioned this: But to make time pass ,watch Equilibrium. 🙂

yes yes, good movie. Hence the quote on my signature block...

yeah, i agree, just think of it as the matrix, but with a twist...and no machine control...its really good, i give it two lightsabers up...

Welll.... Equilibrium looks a little like 1984 meets the Matrix. But it's okay and definetely worth a watch 🙂

10 days wooooooooo

Simple: Forum! Hear me! It is true, what many of you have heard.
The movie has gathered many fans, and as I speak that army of fans is drawing near to our forum.

Forum: [whispers]

Simple: Believe me when I say we have a frustrating time ahead of us. But if we are to be prepared for it, we must first shed our fear of it! I stand here before you now, truthfully unafraid. Why? Because I've read something you have not? No! I stand here without fear because I remember. I remember that I am here not because of the posts that lie before me, but because of the Threads that lie behind me! I remember that for 138 days we have educated these fans. I remember that for 138 days they have sent their spoilers to confuse us. And after almost five months of threads, I remember that which matters most. We are still here!

😄 we're almost there guys... just over a month left!
