I heard while watching sports TV that some fools are actually thinking about taking away Pluto's status as a planet. Who are the fools? And what's their basis for doing so?

With the reference in mind ~The X-files pain, who thinks that there may be a machine(an actual REAL machine controller) which can cause pain to an individual via some chemical channel of sorts as illustrated in CHRIS CARTER's hit series the "X-Files"? (Krycheck vs. Skinner example reference) For those of you not familiar with the show there is a scene where one guy is seen to be operating a handheld device(like a handheld computer/organizer) which actually, with the turn of a knob could cause PAIN to another. Veins would "flare" with the action of the device(it could be turned off and on and up or down like a VOLUME control on a tv or radio, except in this case it controlled/caused the chemistry to excite/decite in the "subject" and come across in the form of vein/artery inflamation/deflamation thus causing PAIN)... it was almost like it was activating something in the blood, or something...I personally really don't know the science behind it. But you could easilly see how one thing could lead to another and thru the pain impulse controlled system such illustrated, a process would be developed/refined and such a method could be used to "control out" another via mechanisms of such.

A police car moves at 50m/s in the same direction as a truck that has a speed of 25m/s. The police siren has a frequency of 1200 Hz. What is the frequency heard by the truck driver when the police car is behind the truck? take the speed of sound to be 350m/s

I'm totally new to the study of quantum physics, and I need an explanation of one of the basic principles. I've read many references to the fact that our observation of an item changes it's state, such as the scenario proposed in "Schroedinger's Cat". How exactly does observation of a subject change it's state?
