There is a lot of talk on the bbc's 'have your say' messageboard about the pros and cons of changing our clocks in autumn and spring. What i'd like to know is how can time be 'changed' - surely 12 noon is when the sun is at it's highest in the sky, how does it all work - put SIMPLY please.

My understanding of evolution is essentially "variation exists within a population of individuals, where that variation leads to that individual having and increased chance of it's offspring surviving then that variant characteristic will be passed on". Can the "mechanism" of Intelligent Design be summarised in a similar way?

I am not looking for ways in which evolution doesn't explain this or that, I want to understand how Intelligent Design makes things happen.

It's been a while since I've taken general chemistry, and I'm looking back at some questions and the information I need for this one isn't coming back to me. The question reads.

What is the wanelength, in nm, of radiation that has an energy content of 1000 kJ/mol?

If anyone can give me a hand with this one, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks.

When would you use an equal sign, and when would you use the congruence sign (looks like an = sign with a wavy line over it) ? Which ones would you associate with an angle? A segment?

Commercials on tv are saying that the USA has more oil underground than all the oil in the middle east.Does any one know what steps are being taken to extract this much needed resource ? I worked on a project at the 4 corners power plant years ago and I know that there are "scrubbers" that are used to clean up the pollutants that come out of the towers.Coal can be used for the production of electricity .....What do you know ?
