On earth a human's terminal velocity is like 140, but what about a plant or star with no gases or anything (like the sun). Would you keep speeding up?

I understand that the baldness gene is passed through the mother. So...I'm not bald (of course)...my father isn't bald, but one of his brothers is. My mother's brothers and father are bald. Are my boys safe because my father isn't bald? I'm just not sure how this works. Can anyone enlighten me?

The website to look at is http://www.speed-light.info/

In there, a "detailed" proof is presented which is not really thorough and complete due to the assumptions made and possibly also that the theory is wrong. Please clarify whether there is any truth in it.

Overall its very suspicious.

I have been in a years long debate about the negative effects of marijuana use. MY friend challenged me to find "ANY evidence" from real scientific research that shows it is harm full in any way. I immediately remembered this forum. I could use some assistance to prove it is not good for humans to use it.

I actually saw this once. I programmed it in two dimensions to model the optical blurring of a two dimensional image coming through a small aperture. I FFT'd the pixel rows. I FFT'd the pixel columns. I did the convolution by matrix multiplying the transformed image with a two-dimensional gaussian probability distribution, and then I detransformed it to get the blurred image. And then I lost the algorithm, and now I'd like to have it again so that I can play with it. Does anybody know where it is?
