I have a digital thermometer that takes four AAAs or an adaptor that plugs into the wall. The thermometer will run for about 6-8 months on the batteries. Is it costing me more to keep it plugged in or should I unplug it and replace batteries every 6-8 months? Hmmmmm

Why is it that I have never heard this Theory?

The Dominant life form on earth prior to the big astroid taht killed the earth was giant lizards.. ie. Dinosaurs..

Well.. Prior to taht there was no humans on earth riht..

well..


doesnt it go to common sense that the astroid obviously carried something that made way for the beginnings of the human race..
If there was the raw material in place to form monkeys-neandrathalsmodern man ect ect.. then why hadnt it formed before the big crash?

It makes sense that the reason it hadnt happened prior was because something very basic,- possible complex.. but none the less.. very important - was missing from the building blocks..


does this not make sense?

This question has been asked before, but there were no definitive answers.

For those of you who have not heard about the experiment, a candle is lit and placed in a water-filled dish. A glass jar is then place over the candle and left. After a few seconds the flame goes out and water is 'sucked' into the jar. The commonly heard explanation is that the candle burns the oxygen that makes up ~20% of the air we breathe creating a vacuum that sucks up the water.

However, this does not seem to be a good explanation for me for the following reasons.

1. The candle is burning oxygen at a fairly constant rate, but the water is only sucked up AFTER the candle is extinguished.

2. Carbon dioxide is a product of the reaction, and is also a gas. Surely it takes up the same volume as the 'burned' oxygen.

So can anyone offer me a good explanation for this phenomenon?

The source I heard this from, his reasoning is that there is no oxygen underwater, so the boots (or any other articles left over from the wreck), can't oxidize and ruin. This is also why dumping waste into the sea won't work, because it won't decompose. How true is this?
