Maybe we don't matter as much as we thought. But surely we are energetic.

I’ve said it before: the dark matter in Dark Matter Theory is fudge.

When I first read the title, I thought this was going to be about the culture crash between Free Republic and the people “out there.”

If 98% of the Standard Model is missing, how much worse must all the other models be?

Let me see if I got this straight.

There is a lot of stuff out there and it is far away. But then there is a lot of nothing out there that we think should be out there but we can’t see it. We give it a name. We measure the movement of the space we can see based on light and surmise that the stuff that we can’t see (but are sure it must be there) must affect what we are seeing or the measurement of movement we have concluded.

Since this theory doesn’t fit anything that we understand, we must be in a bubble of space that has less stuff in it than anywhere else and what we are seeing outside of the bubble is a condition of the bubble.

Now I get it.

Oh right, it’s not the rest of the universe it’s just us. Sure. It’s all our fault, we’re the weird ones, everyone else is normal. Thanks a lot.

The current issue of Scientific American has an interesting article on a hypothesized new type of matter called spacetime atoms that supposedly explain quantum mechanics, the big band and the origins of the universe.

Really interesting article!

Earth may be trapped in an abnormal bubble of space-time that is particularly void of matter.

And common sense which is why 0bama is a candidate for president.

Pinto: That means that...

our whole solar system...

could be, like...

Professor Jennings: one tiny atom in the fingernail
of some other giant being.

Pinto: This is too much!

That means...

-one tiny atom in my fingernail could be—
-Could be one little...

Professor Jennings: tiny universe.

Pinto: Can I buy some pot from you?
