Craftsman Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 Hey all. I was wondering if any of you guys had any good ideas on what my essay could be based upon regarding physics. Things like quantum physics is what im after. Any good suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pidesco Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 Well, what are you writing your essay for? School? University?

Sarjahurmaaja. Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 I do too. But then the world got better. 9/30 -- NEVER FORGET! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phosphor Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 I do too. But then the world got better. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I don't know if "better" is the right word. More convenient perhaps. I think one learned more having to use books for research, rather than just finding stuff on-line and using the "Find" feature to look for your keywords. *shrug* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

taks Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 i'm actually a full-time student again... sigh... sorry, don't have much of a physics background other than dabbling on my own. statistics or math or signal processing and i could help... taks comrade taks... just because.

JonIrenicus Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 Good Luck! Unfortunately I cant help you as I am studying genetics. If I find something on my internet travels regarding quantum physics I will post it here. Life... is strength. That is not to be contested; it seems logical enough.

Grandpa Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 1. Not only do my kids not know how to use a card catalog, but they don't know what one is, either. 2. I second the motion for game physics. I don't know how much of a sense of humor your professor has (given he/she is teaching quantum physics, probably not much), but working a theory about how a spell would affect the real-world if such a spell could actually be performed.

Though the school may not share that enthusiasm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
