Intelligent Bouyancy theory is an alternative to traditional aerodynamics, which is unable to explain how Santa's sleigh can fly. Under IB, it is recognized that all flight is rooted in intelligence. Sparrows are intelligent, and that's why they can fly. Bats are intelligent. Emus and penguines are pretty stupid and that's why they can't fly. And of course, men are intelligent (well some of them anyway) which is why they can fly. It follows then that the reason Santa's sleigh can fly is because Santa and the deer are intelligent. Thus IB can explain all flight, whereas aevildynamics can not.

Why is this theory not being taught in public schools? Anyone who opposes teaching the controversy is obviously a religious fanatic and a fool/pig.

Part of the reason our rivals are catching up is their lower costs. A high-tech company in the United States, says the national commission, can now find and employ eight young engineers in India for the cost of just one in America. But another reason is that China and India are aggressively preparing for the future through education. Within five years, observers believe, 90 percent of all of the world's scientists and engineers will live in Asia.

So my question is... What fields should young American students be encouraged to go into and should we kind of steer them away from math and science related careers?

What do you think about 'adding' a few more planets into our solar system by making a definition of 'planet'? My thinking is, if that's the way it is, what's the big deal. I won't make a fuss if we end up with 23,431 planets in our solar system. It doesn't change our planet, it only changes my perception of this solar system. They've always been there, regardless of what we had to say about them, yes? :) Thanks.

Currently it is up for debate that Pluto should be reinstated to a planet status and that "planet" should be anything that is "round" and "revolves around the sun." This would definition would also cause an increase to the number of planets in our solar system and possible increases in the future. Do you agree with this proposal?

In my opinion, the 'new' solar system is nothing more than a load of crap. The 'expersts' insisted on adding 'planets' to our solar system because they felt like it.

The only real current planets in the solar syster are Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jubiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto, Xena.

Cerest is just an asteroid, its located in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jubiter, it is only titled planet becuase itsthe biggest asteroid known. But if Cerest can be called a planet, then why not name ALL the asteroids planets? Its just stupid.

And charon is nothing more than Pluto's moon.

WHat do you think?

i was given a fossil watch as a christmas gift. it started losing time a year after i got it, i replaced the battery and it still lost time. i replaced it again and stopped wearing it... it kept time for almost a year. i put the watch back on last night and it lost 20 minutes in a 12 hour period. i can't seem to find an explanation as to why it only loses time when i wear it. i do not know if any other watches will do this on me.. i have not tried.
