Has it been proven that lightening is drawn to electricity? Wait, before you laugh at me - I mean it in this way.. If there is a thunderstorm on and you leave all your lights on (including A/C, TV, etc) do you have more of a chance of getting struck than your neighbor who turned everything off? Has this been proven?

It doesn’t go against God, and it’s only based on science. You don’t have to believe that our ancestors came from monkeys, but can you at least acknowledge some aspects? Natural selection? If Intelligent Design were true than why did God give us and many animals useless body parts (molars, tail-bone, etc…)? ANSWER THE QUESTION!

I know they will fall if they pop, but what are the other causes? Would a change of barometric pressure, such as a passing thunderstorm, cause this?

this is a limit problem. The problem is:
lim (pi/2 - x)tanx
x-->pi/2
i found this problem on a book and it starts like this:
first step,x=pi/2+h and then x-->pi/2 and h--->0
But i don't understand why "x=pi/2+h" is written?how "h" comes?
please tell me reasons.

I heard of this place called the "Valley of Silence" located in central Mexico, in the state of Durango. Numerous reports affirm that on this hill if you leave an automovile in neutral, the vehicle will travel slowly uphill as if defiing the laws of motion. I would like a rasonable explanation for this phenomenon.

Although I know that tides are due to moon attraction, I don't understand why it can only have an influence on the oceans and seas. What makes sea and ocean water react differently from rivers and lacs when it comes to moon attraction?

thank you for your answers.

I recently found a piece of wood at the lake. It looks more like a primitive carving than driftwood. It is not as hard as stone, yet it is hard and heavy. It has the appearance of a face (quite distinctly). When looked at from differant angles it has differant appearances. It also has both female and male definition. It is not your typical piece of driftwood and gives one the feeling that in times past it might have been a "special" or "spiritual piece". Would love to know how to identify its origin.

I have personally visited 2, Hungry Horse, MT (house of mystery, bends light, things roll up hill) and Ashland OR. I know the Burmuda Triangle (which I live on the edge of) is one as well.

WORLD, are there more vortex's out there? These are POWER sources, we just have to figure out how to use them.
