That is quite awesome.

 

[Z Power]

Poor Starfishs!!! D:

But that is indeed quite cool. :shocked:

 

[Tenzo]

True. Never seen something like this before.

 

[IFlip92]

I am still baffled at the thought that we still don't know everything about the elements of our planet . I wonder what else we don't know? Paradox...

 

[Avenger]

You mean "chemicals", because nothing you're seeing in that video has to do with "elements".

 

[Deverz]

Elements as in parts of the planet I believe he means

 

[Avenger]

I don't think "element" has ever been commonly used to describe parts of the planet.

 

[IFlip92]

Stop nitpicking it's annoying -_-. I meant elements such as water, fire etc. I think you and Zeo get your kicks from correcting people. You guys teachers?

 

[Deverz]

Weather can also be referred to as elements which freezing water can come under

Also I'm pretty sure there's nothing there that's not already on the periodic table

Too bad you're not very good at it then.

 

[Deverz]

Too bad I just proved my wording was correct

[h=3]at·mos·phere/ˈatməsˌfi(ə)r/[/h]

Noun:

The envelope of gases surrounding the earth or another planet: "part of the sun's energy is absorbed by the earth's atmosphere". The air in any particular place: "we couldn't breathe in the dusty atmosphere".

I believe you'll find that you're mistaken on three counts now (you misunderstood what he meant, and then you used not one but two definitions that don't work in this context). Next time you feel like correcting me and looking down on me because I wasn't born in an English-speaking country -- don't.

On topic: I wonder if one could create a fairly simple 3D mathematical/physical model to demonstrate the principle more easily. It seems like something you might be told to do in a physics' course with heavy focus on numerical solutions to problems, maybe as a semester project.

I bet you're awesome at parties.

LOL. Bad self-image much?

 

[Avenger]

I love you too, Josh.

LOL. Bad self-image much?

Totally. I usually feel better after screwing your mom.

 

[Z Power]

Too much caffeine again?

I'm not looking down on you, in fact your english is very good.

I'm just saying the english language is a tricky one and words are used in a lot of different ways.

Are you people ******* kidding me?

Yep. That actually happened.
