Hahaha.

Some of my coworkers have been working down near Stephenville..... My company has a lot of business in the area. I wonder if any of them saw it. Time to go socialize and find out.

Re: UFOs in Texas

I'd like to see at least a hand-drawn PICTURE of this event if no one has a photo.

Note: this is a good source for updates

...oh! 420 Woo!

Re: UFOs in Texas

The world is moving to a less dense dimensionality? Is that why my pants keep shrinking?

Mentholated, there are actually 15 dimensions, but 2 don't count and 3 are a secret.

Re: UFOs in Texas

I thought Dimension 7 and 11 were deemed non-dimensional due to their size and limitations...

EDIT: Woops...my bad...those are 2 of the secret ones!

Re: UFOs in Texas

Sounds like someone's big mouth might land them in dimension 14...

Is that the dimension where you have to battle the anti-you for all eternity?

Re: UFOs in Texas

You're confusing 14 with 9, Loyal. Common mistake. 14 is where you're forced to eat watermelon from the bosom of the Space Mother for eternity.

Re: UFOs in Texas

Well anyone familiar with Stephenville should realize that it's actually a pretty wild party town. (I'm not kidding) This is due to Tarleton State University. Something tells me that drugs and the power of suggestion may have been involved in this situation.

Re: UFOs in Texas

Nothing flying overhead here...

Oh Menth, matter can't simply "cease to exist". No amount of energy anywhere can undo matter. Think the water cycle: Ice (solid) melts in water (liquid), which in turn evaporates (gas), only to condense (liquid) and be introduced back into the fold. Remember buddy, conservation of mass. Whatever goes in must come back out in one way or another. Have you taken a Physics course yet?

Well, technically you're part wrong here. Your statement only applies to this Universe.

Also, they havent figured out what happens to matter once it enters a black hole (where classical physics breaks down). The information for said matter has to go somewhere, but no one knows where. So technically, our physics doesnt account for all matter... as far as I know (getting a headache again)

I am on thin ice here(for sure) but from back at school I remember we were being taught that the mass increases with the speed. This is the well known equation E=mc^2, Energy = mass x velocity^2, where mass is measured in kilos, and light is measured in m/s. At the speed of light the mass would be infinite and thus reaching the exact speed of light would seem impossible.

Does the "cease to exist" somehow fit into this equation?

PS, there is no hidden irony intended here.
