Yea could even ruin your whole year. 😀 😛

Most certainly true. I don't anybody who is in favor of giant asteroid collisions. 😱

Quite true. Even comet collisions are not a lot of fun either.

No, no fun at all. 🙁

I am against collisions with all astronomical bodies, in fact. 😀 😛

Yea most astronomical bodies tend to be very heavy and move very fast and I think physics says that means a whole lot of hurt if it hits you. 😛

Quite true, mass times velocity can be a killer. 😱

Yup physics is the law. 😛 No getting around it. 😛

In 1897, the state legislature of Indiana considered (but did not pass) a bill decreeing that pi is exactly equal to 3. Gee, if that had passed, then every circle in Indiana would have become a regular hexagon.
That is even more absurd than trying to repeal the laws of thermodynamics by legislative fiat.

Yea I heard about that. LOL 😛 Scary and funny at the same time. Comedian Lewis Black once said "The reason politicians cant balance a budget is it involves math and thats complicated." 😀 😛

Indeed, most politicians can't even do simple arithmetic.

Yup. Making the chances for a balanced budget the same as all my atoms reassembling on the planet Mars. 😉 😛

Good one, my friend. 😀 😛

Thanks. You can always count Quantum Mechanics to help you explain the possibilities of a politician doing anything right. LOL 😛

Yes, Quantum Mechanics is an awesome part of physics. 😀 😛

Really cool and crazy stuff too. 😀 😛

The parts of physics that go against our intuition need to be understood through mathematics. 😀 😛

Quite true. 🙂 I think Feynman said if I remember correctly "If anyone says to you they have an intuitive understanding of Quantum Mechanics they are lying." LOL

I had not seen that bit of wisdom from Feynman. Thanks for sharing it with me. 😀 😛

You are most welcome. One book of his that is very good is "QED" which is short for Quantum Electrodynamics. A really big word which just basically explains how light interacts with matter. Feynman offers a very good explanation of the subject.

I can see that I need to learn more about physics.

Well you know a lot more math then me, so for Quantum Mechanics especially, knowing a lot of math is critical to understanding what is going on. 🙂 😀

Yes, but I think it is worth it to better understand how the universe actually works.
😀 😛

I agree. :iagree. Always amazing whenever you come closer to understanding how the universe works.

Yes, it is a wonderful thing to achieve such understanding. 😀 😛

I agree. I needs to learn more math to achieve that... or at least come closer to achieving that. LOL 😀 😛

I have a t-shirt that has Maxwell's equations on it, as shown below.

Above them, it says, "God said ..."

Below them, it says, "... and there was light."
