Will it work? Probably not. Let's give it a try, anyway.
Is this a sign of how desperate science is?

They say De Ja Vu is the brain reacting a fraction slower then it usually does, hence giving the feeling that you've done it all before. Is that a crock of sh*t or not? Whaddya reckon?

I made a pond last year in the front yard, and dug up a large rock from the ground. It's about 1 m long, 1 m wide, and 60 cm high (average dimensions, the shape looks like a toad). It is mixed with granite and dark grey color rock. When I move a compass close to the rock, the comass needle changes direction, and does not point to North any more. Can someone tell me what kind of rock it is and how the rock was formed? The rock is in south western Ontario in Canada.

I was wondering, after the recent tragedy in one of the tunnels that's part of the Big Dig in Boston killed someone driving through it, why is it necessary to have these slabs of concrete (like what's their purpose in the tunnel)?
Thanks

More importantly, I would like to share with you the Truth about the afterlife. I only tell you this because I care what will happen to you when you die. Have you ever told a lie, stolen anything, used God’s name in vain? These are just a few of God’s Moral Laws. When you die, God will judge you on the basis of His Moral Law. If you stand guilty before God of breaking His Laws, He will send you to Hell. If God is Just and Holy, He must punish lawbreakers. The good news is that God provided a way for you to be forgiven and go to Heaven. Jesus Christ died on a cross and rose again to pay the debt for your sins and take your punishment. What you must do is Repent, which means to say you are sorry to God and turn away from your sins. Then put your complete Trust in Jesus Christ. Only then will you be accepted into Heaven, not because you’re a good person, but because you’re a bad person who’s been forgiven. Please give this some thought. Your Eternal Destination depends on it.

I hold my nose when I sneeze and people have told me it is bad for me. But I've been doing it for over 30 years now, and no problems yet.

Should I be worried that some day something will happen?

I read about Nicholi Tesla. One part mentioned about him trying to sent electricity wirelessly through the earth's atmosphere. This would eliminate expensive high voltage power lines. I heard much of Nicholi Tesla's discoveries were cover ups. Is wireless power transmission true? If so, how could it be done?
