heheeeeeeeeee!!!!!!
ooohahaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!
oh thanks, I needed that!!
P.S
Vivid Boy could you please email me sum more funny thread pics?
PM me. |

He didn't say anything about Brazil, right? This is why I love my country... no matter what happens, nobody remembers of our existence even though we're the 3rd most important country in the whole American continent, so nothing bad ever happens to us in these predictions :p

Indeed, pick up Richard C. Gotts- Time Travel in Einsteins Universe. Or any stephen hawking. it makes perfect sence
BTW, I saw richard gotta and another astro-physicst speak and got my books signed . Astro-Physics is one of my hobbys |

i skimmed over that 'professor's' email reply...
" The Schwarzchild radius for the electron mass " - wtf is that? i'm sure he meant the Schwarzschild radius for a black hole - search for " The Schwarzchild radius for the electron mass " on google and you'll see how irrelevant that is
and to back up john titor, i think what he meant by "black hole being a size of an electron" is that a black hole's SINGULARITY is infinitely small but infinitely dense / heavy. remember, he claimed to be a soldier, so i wouldn't suppose him to completely understand the physics of this.
i'm not saying john titor's story was true or not, i'm just saying that what this 'professor' is saying about the Schwarzschild equation is flawed IMO. |
meaning the radius required for something with the mass of an electron to take on the properties of a blackhole.
| quote: | | For a body of a given mass, the radius beneath which that body's gravitational field will take on the properties of a Black Hole, preventing the escape of all matter and energy. The Schwarzchild radius represents an immensely compacted state - for example, it has been calculated that the Schwarzchild radius of the entire Earth is of the order of one centimetre. The forces required to collapse a body to this extent are such that only the most massive stars (far more massive than the Sun) have the potential to reach it. |
he used in this context:

I guess what he is saying is that in order for something with the mass of an electron to create a singularity it needs to be smaller than the resolution of the known universe. I.E. the earth condenses down into 2 cm so something the size of an electron quite literally condenses into nothing.
I am not a physicist however so I might just be reading what he said wrong. |

Hoax or not, i think the moral of his appearance is just to mention and remind us that what is really happening around us and if we don't take caution or action then extreme consequences maybe follow. That's why i call this story having a blind vision morality, we see what we cannot really see... bla bla bla, not sure what i'm talking about :p
The bit about the 5100 computers is interesting though... |

| i am not positive if it is time travel as well that it deals with, but i know string theory dabbles in that area... the 5th dimension. |

John Titor Departure Video |
is it me, or is it way too coincidental that he spins around to find a perfect spot for his departure, and the camera just so happens to be pointed at that spot? |
