I doubt it. He is making a good point. Your thread topics, whilst ok, are a little pedestrian. Are you in your late teens or twenties?

I say this after wondering why drips are circles. and why a cracked egg into a frying pan forms into a noticeable circle type shape.
The simple answer is because we live in a macroscopically three dimensional world.

I wish I was.

My thread topics are extremely adult and of interest to those with the intelligence and wider interest to understand them. They are all either extremely scientific or intentionally amusing, nothing there to tease the brains of primary school children.

From your rather obscure comment, calling my contributions pedestrian, I am obliged to ask you a question : What kind of education have you had to make a juvenile constructed comment like that concerning subjects of reasonable complexity ?

If you took the trouble to look at my profile, you will see that I am retired. I am not aware that retirement is an option for many in their teens or twenties, unless Daddy is a millionaire or they have won the Lottery.

Re: Spheroids and our Solar System

Surely, it is for others to judge if your posts are "extremely adult and of interest to those with the intelligence and wider interest to understand them. They are all either extremely scientific or intentionally amusing", as you may not be impartial or subjective on this matter?

They don't seem anything like what I find on Google when looking for "extremely adult" content...

BSc degree. I just call it as I see it and what I see are a series of threads from you asking questions that seem a bit pedestrian. But if that's what floats your boat, carry on

Short of meeting you in person (that's not a request), I have no way of verifying that you are indeed of retrement age.
Anyhoo, do please carry on.

Re: Spheroids and our Solar System

12 years, still a noob then, I think you'll find that many of us have been on-line since well before 2003 (I certainly was)

I suspect however that if you keep up with your slightly strange postings, then people like qas will rip you to shreds whilst chortling into his cornflakes, you may want to rethink your strategy somewhat.

Thank you so much for your compliments, I am a big boy and have no intention of rethinking anything.

I have bounced people like qas around like a punctured football all my life and won every time. Whoever this threat to humanity is, he poses no problem whatsoever to me whilst chortling into his cornflakes. Qas the the distinctive honour of being planted on my IGNORE list, so I cannot read a single word of his ranting ever again. Lise is now so good. I gave cornflakes up when I was in short pants. I grew up.

Indeed, experience isn't everything. After 12 years of being crap at something you still come out of it being crap.

Heh, it seems the forum mods around here are doing a better job of ripping him to shreds than I

Stop.

Back to the topic, there will be no more digs at forum members, use the 'ignore' function if you feel the need.
