    I'd like to know why I was chosen and why he did the awful things he did.

    Now, now - no picking on the menfolk! I thought it was really cool when I had an MRI and got to see my brain in slices! And remember, without at least one male, whose brain is indeed not only present but quite capable of amazing feats, this bulletin board would not exist!

    I know that currently, people believe FTL is not possible but I can't get myself to believe that. I am currently reading a book called "the science of Star Trek" and while it's written by William Shatner(who's a bit crazy, IMO), he talked to and visited many scientist, PhD's, astro-physicists, etc etc to complete it. ANYWAY, some of the people he asked have come up with possibilities of altering the space around said craft instead of going faster than the speed of light. If you did happen to go faster then the speed of light, say at warp speed just for instance, there are problems with it anyway such as Time Dilation or even possible time travel (which still has no been proven). But Time Dilation would be a big problem for warp speed that they would need to solve, so altering the space around would be an easier way to travel from galaxy to galaxy anyway - you'd obviously have to make a vessel that can accomplish this.

    A physicist has actually come up with a theory for fast space travel. Using the 'Theory of General Relativity', which is a theory that shows how to distort space he created(well not created-yet) a ship pulls Space (literally space) closer as you fly through and causes you to go great distances very fast, just like warp speed. AND it eliminates time dilation problems. Then once you went through the space, it re-expands. Of course, there's a problem - you need negative energy which might not even exist. SO, it is a possibility that we can achieve deep-space travel. I will always believe that, because I wanna be apart of such phenomenon. I hope some day a brilliant scientist will come along and do this for us

    Why do bad things happen to good people?

    (Why are people allowed to suffer? Why are there child abusers, murderers, and other people who do bad things? Why are kids getting killed because of gangs and guns? Why are so many people homeless and uninsured, while others have more of everything than they could possibly need in ten lifetimes?)

    I would ask my mom if she was proud of me.

    She always heaped praise on my brother, and longed for the affection of my 2 brothers who were raised by her ex's family... it is what it is. It's just something I'd like to know.

    I will miss you forever, my sweet Scooter Bug. You were my best friend. 9/21/1995 - 1/23/2010
    Goodbye, Oreo. Gone too soon. 4/2003 - 9/12/2011.
    Farewell & Godspeed, sweet Jadie Francine. You took a piece of my heart with you. 11/2002 - 8/8/2016

    If you do fold space, you have to travel with that pilot all jacked up on melange....What if you get pulled over?

    What a very interesting thread...it only gets better.
