It take some cognitive blindness to state something like this. Religion has steadily, consistently been losing it's domain of influence in society. From the pagan days to the advent of the Greeks to the enlightenment to modern society powered by silicon and petrofuels, as science has empowered...
My idea: Build a whole lot of makeshift generators, put them on ships, burn all the oil, and feed the generated power into the grid. About the air pollution, well, it's not like we have a clean atmosphere right now... when we learn how to scrub our skies the problem will disappear!
Some of the means being considered are: using cannons to scare away birds from the slick if it reaches shore (seriously) and using shrimping boats to scoop up as much of the oily sludge as they can.
****IN' MAGNETS, HOW DO THEY WORK?!?!
Oh right. Ask Feynman.
But he's just another lyin' scientist. :laugh:
EDIT: I never knew that ICP was a fat redneck plus a wigger, this just makes them so much more hilarious!
Good point, but you applied a little too much intelligence in your 'correct' answer. c is a finite speed, and gives a define average != 60mph. Nothing less than infinity will give 60mph average, so the answer is that it is impossible to get 60mph.

It's six...
Try getting a six year old excited about nature with a documentary. Documentaries, articles etc. are suited to adults, but what fired my imagination as a child was to watch tigers and lions etc. at zoos.
I feel for zoo animals, really, but this is the only avenue for many people to get to see...
We're talking about a field much weaker than the Earth's. It's perfectly safe, I think. The main advantage is that we can cut down on the weight of the walls we use for artificial structures in that region.
That's because you are a layman. Repeat after me: layman. You do not understand this sh*t (and neither do I) and therefore you cannot call into question the ideas of men whose job it is to work on this. If you do, then you are no better than a creationist who keeps yelling, "where's the evidence...
Well, this has been one fruitful mission!
First ice on the moon, now a magnetic field? Awesome!
This magnetic field could offer some protection from solar winds, reducing the need for shielding on a future moonbase. We're now closer to mining Helium-3 with an army of clones than ever! :bounce:
Really? I used to write with a fountain pen as a kid, it was way more satisfying than typing on a keyboard with such girly tactile feedback. You also had to put more thought into your sentences and paragraphs since there was no backspace and no Ctrl-X Ctrl-V
