Author Topic: If I suddenly grow a bad-looking beard, I'll be rather annoyed... MinutiaeMan Living the Geeky Dream Member # 444 posted                       http://www.newscientistspace.com/article/dn8766.html So, there's another theory being proposed by some quantum physicists about what could happen if "parallel" realities aren't entirely parallel, but instead actually collide... I'm not sure I exactly figure on how exactly scientists can tell what's beyond our universe, but it seems kinda freaky to me. Anyone else getting vibes from "The Alternative Factor" here? -------------------- “Those people who think they know everything are a great annoyance to those of us who do.” — Isaac Asimov Star Trek Minutiae | Memory Alpha Registered: Nov 2000  |  IP: Logged Jason Abbadon Rolls with the punches. Member # 882 posted                       There's an alternate reality where I invented the finglonger....poked my brain out while picking my nose. Now I'm the only version of me left in the entire multiverse. ....unless typing this caused a branching off into yet another timeline wherein I did not make that Futurama joke and instead came up with someting witty and original... -------------------- Justice inclines her scales so that wisdom comes at the price of suffering. -Aeschylus, Agamemnon Registered: Aug 2002  |  IP: Logged Peregrinus Curmudgeon-at-Large Member # 504 posted                       Yeah, but what are the odds of that ever actually happening? --Jonah -------------------- "That's what I like about these high school girls, I keep getting older, they stay the same age." --David "Woody" Wooderson, Dazed and Confused Registered: Feb 2001  |  IP: Logged Captain Boh Senior Member Member # 1282 posted                       Must science always tell me I'm probably doomed?

Space Cadet Member # 858 posted                       Kinda reminds me of the "Q-Squared" book, where Trelane was collapsing many different parallel universes into each other. B.J.

With a pretty bow on top. Convergence can be fun. (We need more smileys. There's no evil grin.) --Jonah -------------------- "That's what I like about these high school girls, I keep getting older, they stay the same age." --David "Woody" Wooderson, Dazed and Confused Registered: Feb 2001  |  IP: Logged Mars Needs Women Sexy Funmobile Member # 1505 posted                       In the mirror universe all smileys would have evil grins.

My God- the joy I'd get out of an Agonizer: particularly after having just spent 90 minutes in traffic. An hour and a half to travel 28 miles in a straight line and being surrounded by idiots on cell phones in SUV's.... Oh, but I'd need some sort of car adaptor for the Agonizer (lest it run out of power from constant use). -------------------- Justice inclines her scales so that wisdom comes at the price of suffering. -Aeschylus, Agamemnon Registered: Aug 2002  |  IP: Logged Mars Needs Women Sexy Funmobile Member # 1505 posted                       Well considering they can get ipods to work inside cars, an agonizer wouldn't be much more of a problem.
