RNBRAD Posted December 31, 2004 Report Share Posted December 31, 2004 Also, are you on 1000RR.net? I think I remember seeing a Ducati owner on there called "Ducman There is a Ducman over there, he's been there since 2000 that I know of when the site was 929rr.net forum.

Meat Posted December 31, 2004 Report Share Posted December 31, 2004 Hey i was readin this the other day. The quake was caused by plate techtonics, one plate slid under the other plate and made the earth more "compact" which makes the earth spin just a little faster. And I thought it was 3 miliseconds per day, not every second. And the quake did cause the earth to tilt on its axis by an inch, but it doesnt matter cause....... the earth has a natural wobble and depending on the time of the year its axis wobbles up to a 33 feet wobble, so an inch means nothing. But it is pretty wild tho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STLBILL Posted December 31, 2004 Report Share Posted December 31, 2004 Hi guys: One microsecond less in a day, huh? Well I guess that means Banshee riders will have to make one less trip up the drag strip... Personally, I am more worried about the new asteroid threat (click here). I just wish they would quit making all these disaster movies in Hollywood. Sooner or later they all come true. Regards, Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
. Posted December 31, 2004 Report Share Posted December 31, 2004 so if the world is spinning slower, does that mean we all lost weight? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PolyKarbon Posted December 31, 2004 Report Share Posted December 31, 2004 How the fuck can they measure the one inch that the earth shifted?! Has our technology really gotten that advanced? Holy cow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stu Posted December 31, 2004 Report Share Posted December 31, 2004 You like how the fucking UN of all said we dont donate enough relief aid...Who the fuck are they kidding, how about some relief for 9/11 didn't see many countries running to aid us. Fucking piles of shit. 299869[/snapback] i dont reckon there is a comparrison between 9/11 and this disaster. i know 9/11 was fucked up and im really sorry it happened but the US government has billions and billions of dollars, these asian countries have absolutely nothing. and the death toll is over 100,000 allready and still expected to rise dramatically. massive areas are just completely destroyed, with hundreds of dead bodies being washed up on beaches etc. we need to help these guys out. i went to Krabi and Ko Phi Phi in Thailand not too long ago and the place is absolutely beautiful, a true postcard image of a tropical paradise but its suffered from nature. as these people have lost prob nearly ALL of their friends and family, and ALL their money and possesions we should help them all as much as we can. just my 2cents but i reckon its a fair point stu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
banshees and beers Posted December 31, 2004 Report Share Posted December 31, 2004 If you do some research on it, after most major quakes the earth shifts slightly. This on is just on the news cause over a 135 thousand people got washed out to sea, and that makes good news. And remember we lost 3 mili seconds, as far as I am concerned that puts us closer to the end of the workday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meat Posted December 31, 2004 Report Share Posted December 31, 2004 (edited) the US government has billions and billions of dollars ha, no we dont have billions and billions, the fact is we are in a record level debt and heading towards financial collapse Just was on the news that other countries were complaining were not giving enough money and the reporter said with our record level debt the USA can't give as much as everyone thinks we can.

Ducman Posted December 31, 2004 Report Share Posted December 31, 2004 Ducman, you wouldn't happen to know a good book on the theory of relativity do you? We never talked about it in school and I have only picked up on the basics, but I want to read up on it. I just haven't been able to find any books about it. Also, are you on 1000RR.net? I think I remember seeing a Ducati owner on there called "Ducman". 299952[/snapback] A good book that discusses relativity and other stuff like black holes, big bang theory ect. things that can only be described by mathematical theory is A Brief History of Time by Stephen Hawking. It's a pretty interesting book if your into that kind of stuff and have some science background. Not a hard book to read either, not too text bookish. I'm not on 1000rr.net, so no. so if the world is spinning slower, does that mean we all lost weight? 300156[/snapback] If the earth speeds up then yes, your weight is very slightly less. Just like things weigh slightly less at the equator vs the poles. But mainly your wieght has to do with mass and gravitational force which isn't effected by the earths rotation.

ledofthezep Posted December 31, 2004 Report Share Posted December 31, 2004 Very amazing what all has happened lately. This shit is nutty, I'm without words, totally blown away by this shit. Look at this pic a buddy sent me...this is just one little frigg'n beach. It's amazing that they still don't know the effects...that sunami could very well be the biggest disaster that anyone of us has ever & will ever witness, at least I hope I don't live to see something worse. Over 121,000 dead & still counting. Could you imagine what the survivors are going through!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
