Cancer Posted October 15, 2010 Report Share Posted October 15, 2010 Re: Longest Running Thread EVER Once I figure out the upload process now, I'll post it. EDIT: took two tries. I ended up giving them a couple pages photocopied from tables of integrals and trig tables than put all that stuff on the exam paper itself.

Cancer Posted October 18, 2010 Report Share Posted October 18, 2010 Re: Longest Running Thread EVER Yeah, and since I've already declared that I am not worrying about dealing with the Sun's evolution and it making the Earth uninhabitable in a billion years or so, I'm not worrying about things further out than that, either.

Cancer Posted October 18, 2010 Report Share Posted October 18, 2010 Re: Longest Running Thread EVER Well, metazoans have only existed for about 700 Myr, and the pinch put on us by solar evolution is about 1 Gyr away. We have time to work on the problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cancer Posted October 18, 2010 Report Share Posted October 18, 2010 Re: Longest Running Thread EVER It once was, but that is no longer the case. Back when I lived there, Fairchild AFB outside Spokane was the #3 base to be hit when the missiles came over the pole. But the SAC squadron of B-52's is no longer based there. So while it's still a target, it's been pushed down on the priority list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cancer Posted October 18, 2010 Report Share Posted October 18, 2010 Re: Longest Running Thread EVER Well, Fairchild AFB is about 400 km from Seattle; it's not close. As far as Seattle goes, we're gonna buy it big. The nuclear missile submarine base is on the other side of Puget Sound ... much closer than that air base ... and the US Navy home port for a carrier battle group is an hour or so north of us by car. So we are radioactive meat once the balloon goes up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
