Posted October 17, 2010 Try looking up Microwave oves some time. They've also been linked to creating carcinogens. Share this post Link to post
Posted October 17, 2010 Pft, what hasn't been? Linked to creating carcinogens, that is. Srsly. Share this post Link to post

Posted October 17, 2010 Only things that are good for you. Hehe. Planting a garden? cool. pesticide and herbicide? not cool. The tools used? The seeds - treated or no? The seed packets themselves? Fencing - arsenic in fenceposts, for example, though there are other worries. EVERYTHING IS BAD FOR YOU. Share this post Link to post

Posted October 20, 2010 The tools used? The seeds - treated or no? The seed packets themselves? Fencing - arsenic in fenceposts, for example, though there are other worries. EVERYTHING IS BAD FOR YOU. Seeds? raw, untreated seeds. Treated seeds aren't as vigorous anyways. seed packets? wax paper? Fencing-only if you use treated wood. untreated wood is cheaper, and you won't have to replace it all that often. Share this post Link to post
Posted October 20, 2010 Mrr, fine. Maybe not carcinogens. BUT OTHER BAD THINGS?! /capslock Kay I'm done now. Share this post Link to post

Posted October 20, 2010 Mrr, fine. Maybe not carcinogens. BUT OTHER BAD THINGS?! /capslock Kay I'm done now. According to California, natural apples contain over 20 different carcinogens... However, it's largely assumed that the chemicals they used were high doses and concentrated compared to the relatively small amount that appears in a single apple... Moral of the story: If you eat too many apples (like thousands or something) before your body can process the chemicals, you may get cancer. Apple Cigars, anyone? -K- Share this post Link to post
Posted October 20, 2010 Oh, plus, apple seeds have cyanide in them. And mangos have kerosene in them. Sooo... Share this post Link to post

Posted October 21, 2010 http://news.discovery.com/space/oldest-gal...rse-hubble.html I always find claims like this odd. Isn't all matter the same age? Share this post Link to post
Posted October 21, 2010 http://news.discovery.com/space/oldest-gal...rse-hubble.html I always find claims like this odd. Isn't all matter the same age? Not necessarily. The "Big bang" isn't the only event to create matter. Supernovas ans similar events do similar things. Clearly we should all eat more meat then. -K- People Eating Tasty Animals FTW!

Posted October 21, 2010 Really, they create new matter? I thought all matter originated from "in the beginning..." Share this post Link to post
Posted October 21, 2010 Not necessarily. The "Big bang" isn't the only event to create matter. Supernovas ans similar events do similar things. Supernovas do not create new matter, they create and disperse the heavier elements by fusing lighter elements together. (H into He, He into C, C into O, ect. ect.) New matter is not being created, its more like old protons and neutrons are being rearranged. @Rhea Age of celestial objects is determined by how many light years it took to get to us. The larger the time in light years, in the case of the article over 13 billion, the sooner after the Big Bang it formed. Also, things that formed that long ago were primarily made out of Hydrogen and Helium. The heavier elements hadn't be formed yet. Share this post Link to post
Posted October 21, 2010 Ah, thanks for the clarification. ... I feel obligated to make a crack about your name and how it fits with this topic, but I'm drawing a blank... Share this post Link to post
Posted October 21, 2010 .People Eating Tasty Animals FTW! Haha yes, My chem professor admitted he belongs to PETA, the good kind, not the crazy kind. The thing I found odd about that article, is no one can really make a claim on what is the oldest thing in the universe. Maybe oldest found so far, but they really can't tell 100% the age, and what else might be out there. Science is never 100% and I don't like articles that claim to be 100% factual.

Here, here. *gestures with glass of soda* The point I was making is creation of matter is beleived to be doable in any situation where a sufficient amount of mass-energy is compressed enough. (Like the Big Bang) Supernovas are an example of an event that has been hypothesized to do so, but, well.... good luck proving it. Share this post Link to post

(Like the Big Bang) Supernovas are an example of an event that has been hypothesized to do so, but, well.... good luck proving it. Please link me to a credible source advocating this. I know there's a theory that energy can be converted to mass (since anti-matter and matter annihilate and become pure energy, there SHOULD theoretically be an inverse that takes energy and produces matter and antimatter), but I've never seen anyone postulate that Supernovas can create matter, only that they can convert matter into heavier elements. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supernova_nucleosynthesis -K- Share this post Link to post
Posted October 22, 2010 *Somewhat random* The only inverse I can think of is perhaps a black hole... iunno. A thought. Share this post Link to post
Posted October 23, 2010 Actually, blackholes can, apparently, convert matter into energy WITHOUT "balancing" via anti-matter. Meh, it's something I read about years ago. If you want a source find it yourself. Share this post Link to post
Posted October 23, 2010 All I know about black holes is they're stars that have imploded. They would take say, about all the matter in the entire earth, then condense it into something about the size of a marble. But I'm more intersedted in wormholes. Share this post Link to post
