I'm right-handed about most everything. My left is only good for holding things, providing muscle, but the right is used for all dextrous activity. So how come if i steer the car one handed, my left seems better at it than my right? I play video games with my right. I can think of nothing else I do better with my left hand than steering.

I'm reading an article about blue whales and it mentions they can "grow longer than 30 meters." I'm comparing this to my house which is 72 feet long (28 feet short or so of a large blue). But how tall would the whale be? Would it be taller than my 16 foot tall house?

I have been finding these bugs everywhere. They come in the house at night. They are about 1/2 to 3/4 each long.

Why does the US spend so much on space exploration? We'll never get there and who cares? How does what we learn really affect us or even the planet (considering the $$ spent)? We can spend the money on something better, Americans?
Please spend our money on something else!!

Ok, here we go...I know a computer has memory, in which information is stored, and a CPU, where the actual "thinking" occurs. Does the human brain use the same parts to store memories *and* to think, or are they separate there as well? If they are the same parts doing the thinking and the storing, would it be advantageous to make a computer part that could process as well as store? Is it better to have parts that are solely suited to one task or that mulitask in regard to logic and data storage?

I've been getting minimum approaches between this asteroid's orbit and Earth's orbit of about 750 kilometers, meaning that the physical body of Earth contains a segment of the asteroid's orbit for about seven minutes each year.

Looking ahead, I've noticed that there's a very close passby in December 2141. What chance is there for a collision? If there is a collision the impact speed will be 30.881 km/sec (including the acceleration by Earth's gravity). To figure the impact energy, we need to know the asteroid's mass. What is it?

(my having just seen a History Channel production regarding the
9 11 debacle).

It was a long question, starting with "why was bldg #7 brought down late afternoon, 9/11 when it suffered almost no damage from
#1 and #2 buildings' collapse". And, then was imploded from the bottom floor UP, if true, very unorthadox method. Neverthess, the charges HAD to be already in place for this to occur the same day.

Then I revealed a theory by some, that similar charges had been in place in the Towers that fell. And I theorized then, an example of why I felt this was true:

#1, is the tower had large antenna on top. From films of the beginning of its' collapse, it shows that it began at the
very top, some *10 floors* above where the fire was raging, and

1. Experts in metallugy have stated that jet fuel does not burn hot enough to cause the steel beams to fail from "sagging". Inspection of those beams was not done.

2. The "buffer" of 10 floors, (I'll do later, I'm o/of space...

There is a critical mass beyond which any star or an object with its own gravitational force turn into a black hole. The mass before the big bang was much more than the critical mass, then why did it not turn into a black hole.
