  • A comment on Talk: Sean Carroll: Distant time and the hint of a multiverse

    Dec 18 2011: I think one of the major reasons I love this video, and this theory for that matter is that it is explained so well, and that inevitable tangents of a lecture in broad astronomy doesn't become a confusing lecture about black holes, quantum mechanics, and logical proofs that somehow prove untrue what is clearly true. These mashups of topics that make absolutely no sense are what I would like to call

    "Through the wormhole with Morgan Freeman" and while I'm sure that Mr. Freeman does have a genuine interest in astronomy, and that Morgan Freeman's voice does resonate more pleasurably in my ear than Sean Carroll's, the show makes little sense and often retreats to its dark corner of confusing the mass television veiwers with poor analagies to explain quantum physics. This mentions the subject once, gets to its point, and moves on. That way, I didn't finish watching this video thinking, "huh?". Well done, great lecture!
  • A comment on Theme: A Greener Future?

    Dec 16 2011: Wind Farms in 2008 created 35,000 jobs for Americans.
    The Keystone XL project will create around 2,000 jobs, 300 of which are permanent...
    the solution (if you're the type of person that likes to put your house seat before logic)... is so obvious its awkward.
