  1.  Horatio KJV Bible  Investigate your own delusions. Earth is not flat, regardless of what your FE priests tell you. But you won't will you? Dumbass.

  3. Many years ago, psychologists conducted a series of tests of human endurance of (almost) complete sensory deprivation. Subjects were suspended in lukewarm water in a tank where there were no sensory inputs of any kind. The aim was to discover how long subjects could last before experiencing adverse psychological effects. Modern SD tanks offer floaters around 60 - 90 minutes for first timers, as a means of improving mood, accessing meditation and the like. It can be a positive experience, but there are definitely risks and limitations.

  4. Blunt your brains on this one, ETS. Fred is told to average 60 mph over two laps of a one mile race track. After one lap he has averaged only 30 mph. At what speed must he cover the second lap, with no stops, to average 60 mph for the two mile journey? Consider in your answer the total time that must be taken over the two laps from the start, in order to achieve a 60 mph average.

  6. Being an engineer, how about you doing a bit of car research regarding the ratio of crown wheel to pinion, how this relates to overall gear ratios, and how it should predict the number of wheel/tyre revolutions per mile. Then compare your answers with what the manufacturers tell you.
