There is a Tau in there somewhere

@Br1zon Not exactly. Fire is a chemical reaction. The things burning have mass not the fire. On the other hand:

I assumed the elements rotate. But still the toast is flat and the elements are curved. It's not going to cook evenly. So yeah its a shitty toaster.

Damn. Now I want to re-read the amtrak wars, but my copies are thousands of miles and another continent away at my parents house...

In my ideal world the probes disappear in a flash light. Then 4.36 years later a faint signal is received from Alpha Centauri. It turns out to be Pioneer. From then on the discovery of wormholes and practical interstellar travel are celibrated annually on the day Pioneer dissapeared.

No higgs-boson or previously untheorised quantum particle, no string thoery? That description of how time travel works lacks a little something.

Possibly. But something like this really should be made from Meccano.

If you can eat 5 million bananas without exploding you already have superpowers.

Dead heart? That's actually kind of creepy.

15 years ago when I first had to deal with this, it wasn't so easy to keep the laptop and cell on the correct time. So I got in the habit of adjusting my watch only and then relearning the challenging skill of adding and subtracting small numbers.

Sure you've got a master plan to rule the world and fix all wrongs as you see them.

Thats what I was going to say. And to dis recommend it as a hangover cure.

@SkipErnst: I wonder if they weren't thinking more of the free publicity. I'm sure a skilled artist would have done as good a job.

It Needs a sombrero. And a tree ;-)

Rocket boots? Bah!

I suppose that it's possible that a photon could travel forever without running in to anything, but practically speaking there are no perfect antennas - so it's running mates are going to be spread out and at a certain distance from the source you're not going to be able to tell the signal from background noise.

@ThaMofo: I am not pretending. What was the point?

Change in and of itself is neither good nor bad. Some specific changes are good. Some are bad.

Or you could just live somewhere it doesn't snow. Like Queensland, it never snows in Queensland... oh wait.
