You recall incorrectly. It's important to know the difference between group velocity and phase velocity. Neither energy nor information was transmitted faster than light.
Absloute zero is a temperature; it's just a valid as 98.6F; only it's harder to reach. There are nevative temperatures too (think laser); they are just hotter than positive ones.
Temperature is a measurment of the energy released in a given field. you stop movement, you stop energy release. you stop energy release, you achieve absolute 0. the "negative temp" you refer to is actually just a reversal of direction. the "hotter" aspect isnt true either, it just releases more energy.
if you want "negatives" to apply, wrap your brain around anti-matter. the equivelant of a proton has a "negative positive" charge, the electron has an "negative negative charge"
those seem simple enough to explain as simple inversions, but then the neutron equivelant has a "negative neutral" charge.
also, as a long overdue response to a post: you cant test God, so you say He isnt real. show me a "test" for life. given you can't "prove" mountains are or are not alive, i will assume you can't work that one either. given your line of thinking, "life" is as acceptable as God in theory.
how about we say this.
I , as i have stated in relation to this post, accept both a theory that exaplins how we became humans AND we came to be "living"
and you simply accept evolution, and reject the notion that an outside source created life.
same for you dimensio.
it is obvious we all have knowledge of the field, just differing philosophies to exaplin them.
