<Pedro Gonzales> Yeah, we finally get round to talking theoretical physics! Who would like to begin the discussion on why the term fermionic condensate is in effect an oxymoron?
|  |
| <3Suns> Wow, I never knew James Brown was such an academic... | |
| <Lauren> Gosh, back in the -- well, let's just say quite a few years ago -- I was a physics major. You stop paying attention for 9 years and they come up with not one, but TWO new kinds of matter (fermionic condensate and Bose-Einstein condensate). WTF! | |
| <guyPaulo> I must admit, in the spirit of academic fairness, that I copied the yahoo story directly and have a grasp on only about 10% of the words in that article. | |
| <Jmofwiw> "Fermonic Condensate," rates right up there with "Illudium Q-38 Space Modulator," as scientific terms that are fun to say. It sounds like something Christopher Lloyd would use to cool his DeLorian Time Machine. | |
| <mypalmike> I think I have some fermonic condensate on my windshield. | |
| <Mort> Eurika! I have discovered a 7th form of matter! I call it Monkiecaption condensate. Captions contain lesser or greater densities of this matter, the greater the density of Monkiecaption condensate the more it's gravity attracts the tiny massless Comentron particles. | |
| <guyPaulo> Interesting Mort. It also seems that size of the subatomic user-log is directly proportional to the density of the condensate. Hhmmmm, this has some fascinating ramifications in the field of beaver mating behavior...... |  |
| <yoyology> hehehe. You said "beaver". | |
| <Lauren> now, boys... | |
| <guyPaulo> Geek joke: A ionized glucose molecule in an endothermic state of orbital entropy walks into a bar. He asks the bartender for a cylohexane suspension of hydrocarbons with a sucrose bond. When the bartender ask the molecule how he'll pay, he says "Charge it!" HAHAHAHHAHAH!! | |
| <guyPaulo> Lauren, what are you doing out this late? | |
