I liked space babies okay, but the devil's chord was bad enough that my wife walked out in the middle of it and said I could watch it alone. I finished it up but it wasn't good.

I haven't seen any more yet, and I came on here hoping to see that they got better. I will watch anyway.

Not Fantastic.

Muto's EM pulse had no effect on biologics. Humans and Godzilla were unaffected. It was not related to an eel's stun, obviously.

Only useful against technology really, and that seems so unrealistic. That's where it lost me, the convenience of a creature that can EM machines. So unbelievable.

Inadvertent, I assure you. I will amend it to two parenthesis, hoping this doesn't mean I beat my children or something.

You are so correct, I'm sorry for not checking myself. I'm not surprised I had errors, just that it was so quick and large.

So I guess the expanding universe is galaxy CLUSTERS moving away from each other? I don't feel like it's explained that way.

I understand that our local galaxy group is considered "gravitationally bound" and therefore exempt from the expansion from each other ((, but we don't seem to have other galaxies collected into their own "local groups" of gravitationally bound clusters, so are we saying we're somehow unique? Is there a trick of perception taking place?)) <---edit:this is wrong

I found this quote in the Wikipedia article on the Expansion of the universe.

While objects cannot move faster than light, this limitation applies only with respect to local reference frames and does not limit the recession rates of cosmologically distant objects.

It seems to me that if we can perceive at cosmological distance something that cannot exist, perhaps we are falsely observing an expanding universe. Maybe everything IS gravitationally bound and we're just seeing expansion because... Relativity?

Well I'm not the one to argue with you but dark matter is only a thing because our current assumptions are a thing.

If we had to change our thinking because of new knowledge of some fundamental assumption (such as the reason for red shift), it could very well do away with dark matter. I'm sure such a change of thinking will seem as ridiculous to scientists today as heliocentrism seemed to astronomers of Galileo's day.

I'm not saying this is the answer, but it's an alternative view. Unproven, but then again we can't find any dark matter either.

I think dark matter is spot on. We're not finding it because it isn't a thing.

However... Relevant explanation of why people think there's dark matter.

As of today many and perhaps even most of those products are still not on the shelves. It's unusual to see this kind of delay, and I wonder if anyone knows...

Have there been any leaks or investigative reporting on the source of the salmonella intrusion, and why it is proving so difficult for Quaker oats to get a handle on?

Yeah, that's unnecessary. Let's start doing humans without that.
