No Patience

[Crazy]

For some reason at this moment I am very impatient and sort of depressed...I don't know why though.......

[screwbaII]

Awwww -hugs- hope you feel better soon. I'm hot and bothered and getting a headache :p

[Crazy]

I don't know, but I don't feel right. I feel like something bad is going to happen...Sorry bout' all the bad vibes but I can't shake em'.

[screwbaII]

that's alright :p better to let it out I say. You're allowed to talk about anything bothering you if you want =D

[Crazy]

Thanks. I feel a little better, I may just be sleepy though...

[screwbaII]

That could be it, maybe you should get some sleep then :)

[Crazy]

Prolly, but just for the heck of it I'm not gonna. ;)

[MonsterMiner]

Don't you guys know its 9/9/09!!!

[zlyfire]

it is O.o wat so special

[mang11]

I heard about it but I forgot.

[Xaozaddiction]

actually its 9/5/09 -.- and i have no idea i think its some stupid end of the world crap.

or maybe something for metal heads? because all my metal head friends know what it is but wont tell me >:[

[screwbaII]

no, 21 12 2012 is the end of the world

[Cthulhu]

no, 21 12 2012 is the end of the world

Nope, it's the start of the next. The Mayan's had five calendars before the one that ends in 2012, and they would have made more if they hadn't have been wiped out.

Although it is possible that the alignment of the earth, sun, and the galactic core could cause some form of radiation to destroy the sun or something, just very unlikely. (Personally I think that humans will get some sort of powers, like magic or alchemy or something fun, and they will destroy the world themselves :))

[Darken Sin]

I thought the mighty Cthulhu will me resurrected and slaughter all the living animals of the happy forest of joy! :D

[Cthulhu]

I thought the mighty Cthulhu will me resurrected and slaughter all the living animals of the happy forest of joy! :D

Only the humans, and only if you are deemed unredeemable.

[screwbaII]

Cthuluhu just so you know, I know all about this alignment and stuff it's just the extra gravity from the black hole at the centre of the galaxy is supposedly gonna cause a disturbance of some sorts, and yes the Mayan Calender ends here, so does the chinese I Ching, and a number of other predictions including a web program that was used to predict the sharemarket drops and falls, and that predicted 9 11, predict this date to be important.
I doubt anything will happen though, and was just pointing out the date as 'the end of the world' because that is literally what it is referred to.

[Cthulhu]

I know, but I like getting off topic.

[Crazy]

Last time I had this feeling someone died so....I'm a little nervous. Its funny though cause my birthday is in 3 days!

[Mkishere]

9/9/09 is when the movie Nine comes out :D

[Senna]

Hmm crazy do you eat aloy of green vegtables or red meat.

If not you could be iron defficiant.

I got those symptoms around christmas it led to many disaters including fliping ouyt in the middleof school and runnng away from home. My grandmother had recently beeen declared unfit to live alone though and exams were closing in.

However after a tripto the doctors mant blood tests and ironreplacement tablets ifelt a lot better i wasn't astired anymore and as such i was a lot less irritable

Oh yes and in regards to the end of the world 2012 my be when the earths polarity reverses temporarily deactivatind the magnetic feild surounding the earth which protectsus from the suns radiation. This has happened before the last being around 6000s years ago i belive

[rosedragon]

Yea, low blood pressure and/or low volume of blood can make you go mad ;p .

[cirpons]

if humans are going to die then its only their fault,why you ask,there are many answer here are one of them:

if humans keep generating Co2 at this rate the ozone will be destroyed, and they wont be defended form the suns radiation eqals earths climate is beginning to get hotter and the poles melt down,water level increases and humans sink all because of theyr flollishnes.

im glad im not a human.;)

[Senna]

Acctully cirp the earths core is cooling meaning the earth is geting colder as such global warming could be a good thing as it would then act like a theremal blanket keeping the earths temperature up

[Pirate Foxes]

Well...

The temperature on the crust has almost nothing to do with the planet cooling. There is so much magma it will take a very long time for the earth to fully cool.

[Cthulhu]

The cooling of the earths core doesn't directly affect the climate. Instead, what happens is the magnetic field around the earth weakens as it reverses, meaning much more radiation from the sun is hitting it.

[cirpons]

if you dont have ozone then it doesnt matter:p

[Senna]

Meh i was only quotinga documentarry anyway

[screwbaII]

Documentaries aren't always correct. They just state theories with possible outcomes, don't 'believe' everything that you see or read you have to always question it with 'but what if' or 'this is not the only thing that could result from this'. I know you are still only young, but being critical of scientific theories is an important thing to have, not only for researchers but I think if the general population had this way of thinking the media wouldn't be able to 'scare' people so much. Theories are only a model to explain an idea and they do not 'prove' anything. You know Newton's 'laws' of gravity are only theories as well, just because they apply here on earth does not mean they do apply elsewhere.

Cirpons, there are many theories about what will happen with global warming, one of them is the earth will just get hotter. Global Warming is the term that was coined for the effect of the 'Greenhouse Effect'. The blanket of atmospheric gases that surround the earth and trap in heat.
You got the ozone mixed up in this, this is a different issue altogether (chlorofluorocarbons or CFC's are actually responsible for destroying the ozone layer, though they have stopped being produced they can be active for >50 years so the ozone will keep being destroyed for a long time yet). Ozone is responsible for filtering out the harmful radiation like UV, which is not responsible for heating, but is responsible for things such as skin cancer (which is a huge problem over here in australia).
CO2 actually adds to the greenhouse layer. As the Greenhouse layer becomes thicker it traps in more heat, making the earth warmer. Thus, as you said, melting the poles and the water level rising.

However there is another theory that states that global warming will cause a paradoxical ice age, caused from the imbalance of salt water and fresh water. As we know the poles contain >90% of the earth's fresh water in total. If this fresh water were to melt into the ocean, this will dilute the precious salt water needed for keeping the 'earth's conveyer belt' also known as the north atlantic current, going.
This current is responsible for all of the world's weather, and is caused by the earth's climate itself. As warmer water from the tropics hits the cooler water of the arctic, it cools, becoming denser and saltier and then is pulled back toward the tropics, and as such becomes warmer and lighter, and gets pulled back to the surface. The warmth of the water affects what kind of weather we get, for example very warm water is responsible for things like typhoons or cyclones.
The problem is if there is more fresh water, the water does not become denser and thus does not get pulled back, thus the earth's weather stops altogether and this is predicted to cause an ice age for at least some parts of the world. The movie 'the day after tomorrow' is based off this idea (however they got a lot of things wrong) Since the north atlantic current has been monitored, it has slowed down by > 40% and this is significant!

I think we are already beginning to see the early effects of global warming though, and it's only going to get worse, and there is nothing we can do now I don't think, except perhaps stop CO2 emissions altogether, but no one is going to do that so we are just going to keep on fuelling the situation. I know this spring Australia has predicted heatwaves (it is VERY warm for spring and we already had a heatwave in winter where I live, highest ever recorded temperatures for winter, that were closer to early - mid summer temperatures. This is getting pretty damn hot!). I am not looking forward to summer needless to say :p

Anyway this has been very long and complex, for those of you who understand this, this is not the only theory, just one of many (and it may not even be close!). Personally I think this is just a cycle of the earth, I think it goes through natural heating and cooling phases, however we are just 'speeding up' the process. The current CO2 levels are the highest they have ever been in the history of the earth that we have discovered thus far, so the consequences, even if this is a natural cycle, will be in far greater magnitude than anything the world has seen thus far. Some people will survive it though, this is how natural selection works...

[Crazy]

Technically this is all predicted as a cycle too. As you know every 10,000 years, or something like that, something identical has happened. Alas, tis' just another theory adding on to the confusion of global warming, also a theory I might add, and causing people to panic at the idea of what will happen.

I feel better now. :D

Yeah..... I don't have enough patience to read that........

[rosedragon]

It just five paragraphs. :) If you don't embrace random theories and don't like research more (like reading that), it is fine. But a lot of people is like what screwball says: they just repeat what media says and get scarred by themselves.

[screwbaII]

he he he, what I wrote is nothing. You should see what I actually HAVE to read. Whole journal articles and research papers, with mountains of data and statistics. Recently for a group assignment I have to do my own research question and conduct all of the experiment and collecting data and analysing data and reading previous research on the area and not to mention writing it all up into a research article. The list goes on...

I hope you'll like it, because you might have to do that a lot, once you're done with school. ;)

There, the fun begins with additional pressure finding the funds to do the research, and then even more pressure getting your article peer-reviewed and published in the most reputable journal possible. Oh yes, the almighty god of PUBLICATION, one's true measure of worth in the world of science. :rolleyes:

[screwbaII]

he he he, that's if I even go into research (I'm considering probably doing practicing as well as maybe some research on the side if I think of something cool... lol)

[Senna]

Hmm nice thoughts screw but personally i do agree with you on the cycle thing in any cas science realy isn't mty thing i much prefer philosophy and ethics

[MonsterMiner]

Actually I did read it, just was too lazy to think of an actual response.

Well Global Warming, if its true or not, all that CO2 must have done something, then again some people say that we didn't make a lot of CO2 in the atmosphere, but then again..........

[screwbaII]

I could find figures if I wasn't so lazy, I have read a lot about the different theories and stuff (One of the things I considered in highschool before I discovered what I wanted to be was climatology and stuff to do with climate). It interests me a lot, I just hope when it all boils to a head that I will be long gone.

Yeah, people dis-argue on the info............
Like how much CO2, the temp, many other stuff.

Wasn't this thread about crazy needing sleep or something?

I THINK EVERYONE IS GOING TO DIIIIIE! (eventually)

There is going to be a large meteor that comes CRASHING DOWN into the center of the planet, destroying all of the crust, adding a good 5% onto the mass of the planet and making the entire surface of the planet TURN BACK INTO MOLTEN LAVA! AAAAAAH! Huge steam clouds will RISE from the surface of the planet and life will once again be no more on Earth.

Such is life.

Even suns die.

No no... A HUGE DEAD STAR WILL HURTLE THROUGH THIS SOLAR SYSTEM, SO MASSIVE THAT IT LITERALLY DRAGS EARTH, JUPITER, NEPTUNE AND PLUTO OUT INTO THE NETHER REACHES OF SPACE, ALSO KNOCKING SOL WAY OUT OFF IT'S SPIN! ALL LIFE ON EARTH IS THEN DOOMED TO A COLD, ICY DEATH OUT IN DARK DARK SPACE!

NO! No no no...
Space...

Aliens...
Come down in a giant flying saucer.
They land...
AND OUT OF THE UFO COME THOUSANDS OF GIANT 100-FOOT-TALL NATIVE AMERICANS!

[Riida]

Look.....Death always reigns, but with every death of something, it is refreshed with life. Such as when Sun dies, another sun will eventually take its place, along with another set of planets, a human race, a new era.

[Pirate Foxes]

Such as when Sun dies, another sun will eventually take its place...
No it won't! It just remains a black mass out in space...

[Riida]

D< That's what Science says. Science doesn't give you the right answer always, and im not being religious. It's just the flow of this universe, it's how it works. I know this since i traveled to Rae's after The sun died out. It is always going to be replaced.

[Pirate Foxes]

I'm sorry that whole sun bit made absolutely no sense. I'm talking about like... physical-real here...
There are going to be NEW stars, but that doesn't mean old stars will be replaced...

Science doesn't always give you the right answer? Yeaaaaah. Aerodynamics are false. Chemistry is fake. Gravity of planet earth isn't approx. 9.8M/sec^2. The world is flat. The splitting of the heavier, unstable atoms is a lie because, as mentioned, chemistry is fake. Human-made objects never left this planet's gravitational pull, and definitely NEVER landed on Mars. And steam engines are the work of the devil.

[Riida]

I'm not saying everything is wrong, I'm saying that they can't prove EVERYTHING and be right all the time.

And also, the sun thing doesn't mean it will be replaced in the exact same spot, it means there will eventually be another star that takes the role of earth. Which means that there will be more planets, not exactly the same, with civilizations on them, of many differing races.
