Maybe I won't be the only one studying this summer...
I may have to ask you a law school question or two. You might have said this already, but where are you talking the bar?
Okay, I really liked it better when you were looking in Massachusetts, Wolfram, but that said, I think your idea sounds wise. If you're not otherwise planning to relocate to Florida, it would be ridiculous to shell out that fee.
Don't worry Cindy, MA is still in the running. So is practically any state, although as you know, because of my religious beliefs I'd have to live within walking distance of an Orthodox synagogue. Which makes some states, i.e. the Dakotas, a long shot.
And thanks for the advice, Beej. I can't tell if the partner was just ignorant of the registration cost, or really being an asshat. Either way, I'm determined now not to pay it (not that I have that kind of disposable income to toss around anyway.)
And thirding the TMBG approach for Sean. What an asshole.
I just misspelled, dang it. Centripetal sucks you in, centrifugal flings you outward.
"fucking Tucson" made me smile, because I used to, there, at one time. Not quite "I Left My Heart in San Francisco" but hey...
Sean, ew.
Centripetal sucks you in, centrifugal flings you outward.
ita's mom needs to give us a demonstration with a rat.

As I understand it (and bon bon corroborates) there is no such thing as "centrifigual force." There is only (Zool and) centripetal force.
eta: Okay there is "centrifugal force" but it doesn't affect the thing swinging at the end of a string.
Where are the physics geeks to explain this?

Okay, yeah, but isn't that just a misnomer for the flingy-outy force? I'm pretty sure I remember from my science classes that there are two forces involved in orbital mechanics (including spinny things, such as dead rats held by the tail) -- the tuggy inny force (centripetal) and the flingy outy force (frequently misstated as centrifugal, but actually having some sort of other "centri"-name).
Unrelated to anything, but I feel like giving myself a public pat on the back. I went to a reading after work, so didn't have any dinner until way too late, but I still waited to eat until I got home, saving myself both money and calories.
Hec, [link] -- note that there is no centrifugal force on Teppy. The force does exist, but it acts on the couch, and not on her. (And how absurd is a physics smackdown between a lawyer and a web dev who were both, iirc, English majors?)
(x-post with Hec himself, who provides EXACTLY THE SAME very first link on google, proving that we are both lazy googlers.)
OK, when Julie
opened the box for the gun, did anyone else expect it to be the one from HoG on Firefly?
CSI is playing with
time.
And it is annoying me because I am only halfway paying attention so kinda confused. I liked it when
Boomtown did the multiple perspective thing
but I had to pay attention.
