thanks for the clarification.

are you bitter about something else? "Don't talk to me like that assface...I don't work for you yet." - Fletch NBFT, Deseoso Rodriguez RB#1329

you're wrong. the density of molecules has everything to do with this topic. air is the medium for the propagation of the sound waves in question so, the density of the air is paramount to finding the speed of sound at any given altitude. as a side note, i'm no physicist but, specific heats are descriptors of a given material. you have the ratio of specific heat at a certain pressure over the specific heat at that certain volume...is that equation that you dug up to be used for the change in the speed of sound when sound waves travel through a boundry in different materials or what? not to mention that if you do a unit analysis here, you won't end up with a velocity as is required for any speed. i.e., the specific heat units cancel and what you're left with is the gas constant multiplied by a temperature which gives you energy/moles, not distance/time. please explain.

i sure as hell celebrated tonight but i didn't know that it was for the alamo. i stand drunk and corrected...long live soldiers and the women who love them!! "Don't talk to me like that assface...I don't work for you yet." - Fletch NBFT, Deseoso Rodriguez RB#1329

it's not my theory...time will tell, as always. "Don't talk to me like that assface...I don't work for you yet." - Fletch NBFT, Deseoso Rodriguez RB#1329

yes, i have; now american products are less expensive for people in other countries to buy. that means that american products will sell more overseas which will in turn drive their prices up. the cycle of economics continues...

talk about not getting the big picture. you hate to say it...but there is almost no help for people with that kind of mentality. the scary thing is that this person was/is in a position of some power. i guess the only thing i can do is to hope she gets hit by a bus...just kidding.

you're wrong my friend...inertia is not a constant. "Don't talk to me like that assface...I don't work for you yet." - Fletch NBFT, Deseoso Rodriguez RB#1329

yeah, maybe the french will be able to defend their own country now. it takes a bad ass rifle to make up for the lack of french resolve, obviously. "Don't talk to me like that assface...I don't work for you yet." - Fletch NBFT, Deseoso Rodriguez RB#1329

i think that you are correct bill. i've wondered for some time why there has not been a push for alternative energy sources from oil. they are out there and we have known it for quite a while now. it comes down to money as always; as soon as it's more cost efficient to consider alternate fuel, the american market will change. it's all in response to money, the bottom line.

your view is too simplistic...i'm a republican and i did the fighting because it was the right thing to do. democrats fought along side me because they knew it was the right thing to do. so, it's not a republican/democrat thing...it's a wisdom thing. "Don't talk to me like that assface...I don't work for you yet." - Fletch NBFT, Deseoso Rodriguez RB#1329

you obviously feel strongly about this cause but think before you speak. "Don't talk to me like that assface...I don't work for you yet." - Fletch NBFT, Deseoso Rodriguez RB#1329

i know; i didn't mean to sound confrontational if i did.

i know...i think much of this is born out of not being able to make decisions based on reality. for instance, many educators tend to be liberal dems because somewhere along the way, they jumped from the real world into a hypothetical world where money is limitless, there is no right or wrong, and consequences that actually inflict discomfort are not good for a "civilized society". some of them have no idea what it is like to be a soldier/policeperson/prison guard/etc yet, they sure can talk all day about how these people should do their jobs and monday-morning-quarterback their decisions that were made in heat of battle.

it's not just you by a long shot my friend... "Don't talk to me like that assface...I don't work for you yet." - Fletch NBFT, Deseoso Rodriguez RB#1329

if you were making the point that my hard labor suggestion wouldn't be good due to the fact that assbags can get out of prison due to parole, let's remember, my system doesn't exist at all anymore. in my hypothetical system, parole wouldn't be used nearly as heavily as it is in the real world. imo, when a prisoner gets life in prison, he/she did something bad enough to warrant no parole at all.

yeah, the blue states turn citizens into idiots and the red states put them out of our misery! it's a self-healing system! "Don't talk to me like that assface...I don't work for you yet." - Fletch NBFT, Deseoso Rodriguez RB#1329

i don't support the death penalty...it's too easy. i want hard labor day in and day out. i think a persons life in prison should consist of shelter, food/water, sleep, and labor; no tv, no visits, no weights, no games, etc. "Don't talk to me like that assface...I don't work for you yet." - Fletch NBFT, Deseoso Rodriguez RB#1329

do you think that is a cause/effect relationship? "Don't talk to me like that assface...I don't work for you yet." - Fletch NBFT, Deseoso Rodriguez RB#1329

it's t-bagging, as in testicle bagging: putting your balls on another persons head/face. usually done while that person is sleeping and it usually involves the taking of a picture for posterity. "Don't talk to me like that assface...I don't work for you yet." - Fletch NBFT, Deseoso Rodriguez RB#1329

glad to hear it sunny!! don't get to crazy out there...the world isn't ready for you yet. "Don't talk to me like that assface...I don't work for you yet." - Fletch NBFT, Deseoso Rodriguez RB#1329

i had a good day and it's about to get better...it would be nice to have temps above 50 and a dry dz however.

i'd love to get down there too but, my job and school have me locked down pretty well. besides, i already spent a good amount of money on a snowboarding trip this winter. sgc's safety day is the 12th of march, like i said above, and it'll be held by treeboy et al. jim and lee will be in ohio somewhere around the 2nd of april so, i'm sure i'll see you then. have fun this weekend; i'm about to start!!
