BS. Not all scientists become scientists for a purely scientific reason.Uh. No. Accountants and Scientists definitely do not have to same "goal" concept in their jobs
Love, money, prestige, to combat ignorance, - that basically covers "everything" hence is not a delimiter
The analogy would be to call a "beavertail" - pastry (one of the other threads)
hehe That's what I meant by "love". Never occurred to me that someone would become a scientist to get next to his/her scientist crush. lol But I suppose there is the odd one to do that, too.lolAnd loving your job. Lots of people go into a research career because they like what they do. It would be a pretty crappy job to do if you didn't like it. It's not like a elementary teacher who gets the 2 month summer vacation...
If you "fall through space" you'll always wind up where you started because space IS a torus.

That's a "hole"y concept.I read that both gravity and electric force are longitutinal. The magnetic field of the sun is torroidal, wrapped arround the equator so don't we need billions of doughnuts held in one big doughnut? Is this giant doughnut contained in one plane or how do we envision a sphereical torroidal field? I'm trying get a picture of the big doughnut in my head.
That's a "hole"y concept.![]()
Cool!
Um, Somehow I don't think it'll be filled with normal jelly.
Maybe *you* do; I don't see any reason to equate them based on that.I'm convinced that mass and electricity are the same thing Dexter.If you've ever had an electrical shock you get to thinking like that.
Doesn't affect my position at all, though it would seem to weaken yours significantly if that's an accurate description of you. You're lapsing into your usual logical fallacies again, ad hominem and tu quoque that time.So I'm a barely cognizant illiterate mongrel idiot, WTF does that do for your position?
Well that splendid tautology certainly clears things up: Newton observed gravity to be attractive because Newton observed gravity to be attractive. Good one. :roll:Gravity is observed to be only attractive for the simple reason that attractive force was the only observable aspect of the phenomenom observable to Newton.

I even know one scientist who became a scoentist mainly to be able to thumb his nose at someone.
That's very interesting, thankyou for your time. Of course it begs the question what does the shapeless mass of a subatomic particle look like? When I googled Buchert averaging last evening I got this paper first in the list.

It doesn't beg any question. It rather explains that it has no image. A subatomic particle can emit/absorb a few photons at a time, probably one, I can't remember. You cannot scatter enough photons off of it to get an image. It doesn't really have an identity as a classical object.
You should see the girls in the Chemistry department here. Holy molly. Seriously.
We could see if you had some photos of these hot chemistry babes Tonnington and don't bother with a mathmatical equivilent.:smile:
You'll have to take my word for it, unless you're in the Truro area some time. Take a stroll through the Cox building. :smile:

What do you think "explain it" actually means? What we call the "laws of physics" aren't laws at all in any conventional sense, they're just summaries of observed regularities that provide a means of describing and predicting how nature behaves under certain circumstances. Quantum theory and general relativity do that very well, but you seem to take the view that they're just calculating tricks that sometimes give the right answers without really explaining anything. How is your silly electric universe hypothesis--I won't dignify it by calling it a theory--any better? Can it explain electric charge and the forces it creates? Can it explain how moving charges create magnetic forces? No it can't, it just takes them as given, this is how nature has been observed to behave. You criticize conventional science because it can't answer certain questions, when your version of things can't answer them either but you like to pretend it can.Newton gave us his ‘law of gravity,’ which describes its effect but doesn’t explain it.

You get sillier every time you try to defend your position against people like me and Niflmir who really do know something about what science is and how it works. And you still haven't come up with the calculation you agreed to produce in another thread, about the amperage and power and the induced magnetic field of the Birkeland current you claim energizes the sun. It's simple second year classical EM theory, at least for a first approximation; put up or shut up.
