Someone gave her a license to practice medicine?
I listened to the whole video, but zoned out pretty quickly.
After that, all I could pay attention to was the word "ok" because she said it about 2000 times [laugh]
I feel less smrt now.

Seriously though, I don't think you two are on the same level
Stephen Hawking. That is singular, crazy lady.
Other than that, there was absolutely wrong with anything she said. Because she is a...? An eye doctor, an eye doctor. And eye doctors are ...? Physics scientists, right? And physics science is ...? The science of physics, that's right!
holy crap e=mc^2 is e=c^2 cause limit m/mtotal = 0!!!!!!!!!!!!
I think we just solve one of sciences greatest mysteres.... where all the shit that gets sucked into a black hole comes out of.
Oh don't forget all the matter in the universe can be compressed to a clump the size of a bowling ball :D
is she a Heaven's Gate survivor?
I don't recall a single mention of comets ;)
I don't even think she believed the crap she was shoveling.
I occasionally buy bagels from Einstein.

If it has no mass, it must be able to move at the speed of light. That means you have lightspeed balls.
Thats pretty make the beast with two backsing impressive.

but if mass=0, wouldn't that mean that BP's balls have no energy?
the sun makes a lot of photons that have no mass, but they have enough energy to control all life on earth.

be glad that you did. higher level physics will make you want to commit suicide. You lose all sense of reality because it destroys your grasp of time space as you see it.

Na, that would mean that BP is is a quick finisher. :P
Can anyone explain to me what she is trying to explain? I mean, what's the bottom line? I still don't get what homeopathy is. I admit that I didn't listen to the whole thing and kinda zoned out after she said e=mc^2 for the 20th time in the first 3 minutes. What kinda nutter thinks that all the mass in the universe can be condensed into the size of a bowling ball? That'd have to be crazy dense.

i watched a show on the science channel and another on the history channel (with a rather attractive lady who works at the JPL) that kind of explained it.
it's a rather hard concept to grasp, but the gravity that all the matter in the universe has combined would allow all of the matter to squeeze down on itself thus making it tiny. and yes, very very dense. of course when a star does this it has the tendency to form a black hole, but then again how do we know our universe didn't start from a black hole?
i have yet to watch the video, but from the responses here i'm guessing it is a very well thought out explaination. i'll need a good laugh when i get home. maybe it will replace that whole unifying theory thing too.

i went to school with people who couldn't pick out 2 matching socks.
What's the point in that? I mean, exactly how much effort should I be expected to put into finding the match?
They're all socks, they all end up on one foot or the other. . .

when worn with pants that are a bit too short they look really stupid.
and since i became the cool kid when i went to college because there were so many people that were just shitloads smarter than i am i had to refocus on doing somethign better than them ;D

So, if she said that mass was essentially nothing in that equation, wouldn't that mean that energy = nothing?
e=mc2 is energy=0(speed of light)2 speed of light squared times zero is zero. So energy=zero...

essentially nothing and actually nothing are different.
particles have mass, it's just an incredibly small amt of mass.

When one is talking about justifications for homeopathy, they're all pseudo-scientific. We're already in a region of such badness that it's hard to distinguish degrees of lousiness. However, I must agree that she seems to have wound the circus down to new depths of pderbyerousness.

the slower bike will see the faster bike as moving at the speed of light.
what if both bikes had a rear warp nacelle and moved at the speed of light?
Didn't Einstein theorize that it was impossible for matter to travel at the sped of light? Faster or slower, yes, but not AT the speed of light?

She is not just crazy, she is mathematically challenged. I damn nearly fell off my chair at 2:00. WTF?!?!?! Einstein is rolling over in his grave!
I lasted till 2:30 and I have to turn it off. Einstein's General Theory of Relatively and the equation of E=MC^2 was meant to demonstrate how much energy is stored in mass, dispite of how small the mass might seem. It doesn't matter how insignificant the mass is, it is multiplied by the speed of light, SQUARED. A small mass would have a tremendous amount of energy.
