Or even with the right equipment through the walls? Low pulses or oven jarring charges? What would prolonged exposure to low pulses in the torso do to a system?

If we already know God created us, life, & earth, why is the government wasting billions on godless space missions in order to find "proof" that the origins of life are embedded in lifeless comet dust, and toxic gas on distant planets' moons? In one instance, Bush & republicans say they are men of god and doesn't believe in evolution or abortion, and in the other instance he supports the funding of billions of dollars to feed scientists' godless imaginations in these pointless space expeditions. How can all the intelligent Christians in the world sit back & let these scientists use government money to collect rocks from space to make up stories about how the bible is wrong. I ain't come from no monkey, so why in hell would anyone with common sense believe they came from some dust a billion miles away. Why is our government, especially bush, being so hipocritical when they say they believe in God's way, yet fund many science experiments whose end purpose is to discredit the Bible?

There seem to be a large number of people asking politically motivated questions about science on here who don't appear to have an adequate education to even phrase the question, let alone comprehend the answer.

Why do they think science is about proving theories, when it is all about disproving hypotheses?

Why do they think that evidence which cannot yet be explained by a theory invalidates all the evidence that is explained by it?

Why do they think that evidence that cannot yet be explained by a theory will never be explained by a more refined version of the same theory?

Why do they think that the process of refining theories to better fit the evidence somehow invalidates the whole sequence of improving theories?

Why do they think that widespread agreement within a field is evidence of a conspiracy, rather than evidence of solid scientific investigation and peer review?

And why are they using Yahoo Answers to score dubious political points off a disinterested audience?

My water makes a pink slimy stain when it pools up somewhere for a day or two. It stains the drain and the toilet. Also, when you leave a few drops of water in the bathtub, a pink stain appears. Its gross, it comes off with soap. But I wonder why it does that?

Does anyone know how much air needs to come out of a container for it to preserve food effectively? Is there any advantage to pulling all the air out vs. - say half? We're working on an invention and would very much appreciate any coaching on this one!
