Mainly you though twinks, your lots cuter than simer. no offense simer, just one of those things.” 11:24:16 PM 3/16/04 “Damascus VA, May 13 - 16.” 11:24:53 PM 3/16/04 “awwww :) thanks! i don't have a car :(” 11:25:07 PM 3/16/04 “i'm not cute? I don't have a car either” 11:26:03 PM 3/16/04 “hmmmmmm, no car. bummer. you are a New Yorker!” 11:26:22 PM 3/16/04 “i'm bipedal - i pedal my bike with two legs LOL! omg - so tired - too much input for #5 - brain spinning” 11:26:23 PM 3/16/04 “I walk... takes a lot more time to get from place to place though” 11:27:19 PM 3/16/04 “hey - does the earths rotation speed increase?” 11:27:27 PM 3/16/04 “ha! hey - i think you are cute too both of yous guys” 11:28:53 PM 3/16/04 “ahh, i'm cute - did ya hear that, yeah :D” 11:29:32 PM 3/16/04 “awwww, thanks! Hugs ” 11:29:48 PM 3/16/04 “ok can either of answer my question? mmmm hugs! i love hugs! *sniff* much deprived of them these days” 11:30:53 PM 3/16/04 “phone call (its a girl)” 11:30:57 PM 3/16/04 “does the earths speed of rotation increase when??” 11:32:22 PM 3/16/04 “a baby? or that special someone?” 11:32:33 PM 3/16/04 “in general” 11:33:02 PM 3/16/04 “someone I've been hoping would call!” 11:33:58 PM 3/16/04 “I think the speed is constant” 11:34:35 PM 3/16/04 “i thought it was slowing down in general... if i remember anything from highschool. like after a couple of hundred billion years or something it will stop, but before that time it will be engulfed by the sun when it explodes or something like that, maybe you should ask somebody that actually knows what their talking about” 11:35:44 PM 3/16/04 “scary” 11:36:52 PM 3/16/04 “that's the problem - i don't know anyone who does! i just keep searching for answers to one question - and then find more questions!” 11:37:53 PM 3/16/04 “Tilt is like a star and planet guy of some sort, ask him. Off the phone now.” 11:39:42 PM 3/16/04 “you know what? a few times in the past few weeks in particular - with all this research - I've felt like crying - not as a negative emotion - but because life, the universe of of it - is so damn amazing! it boggles my mind! like - how all these tiny atoms make up these huge systems! its all so damn cool!” 11:42:07 PM 3/16/04 Question Twinks “on Phil's Phot page are you the same as Twinkle Toes?” 11:42:16 PM 3/16/04 “well... the onlything that would slow it down/speed it up really would be a loss/gain of energy, a lot of energy at that. something as massive as the earth has a lot of momentum. There's not really any friction against the earth as it spins through space, so in theory it should stay constant. small things change it's course - meteorites, asteroids, space junk, something like the asteroid that might have killed off the dinosaurs might have changed the rotation some... and something similar in the future could change it... ok, that's my point of brilliance for the month” 11:42:20 PM 3/16/04 “that's the sort of stuff that if you sit and ponder it enough make you feel so insignificant and the things we worry about just lose all relevance.” 11:43:54 PM 3/16/04 “yeah, that's crazy stuff” 11:44:40 PM 3/16/04 “yes - I'm Twinkle Toes :) not talking about the earths orbital speed - that's another bag of little kitties I can't delve into at the moment... ohhh....do ya think if the earth slowed its axial rotation enough there'd be a top-like effect? maybe silly thought” 11:44:54 PM 3/16/04 “I WANT TO KNOW WHY THE GEOMAGNETIC REVERSES!! one stupid little question for a beginning geology class and I feel like I've undertaken a Master's thesis! #&%!$ ME!” 11:46:52 PM 3/16/04 “yeah, i'm aware of what we're talking about here... maybe that's why it "wobbles" on it's axis as it is” 11:47:17 PM 3/16/04 “I did read somewhere, maybe in Discover Mag, that the earth does have a slight "wobble" in its rotation and that it has switched it's poles a couple of times in the past. They don't know what causes the switch, or what the impact on us would be if it happened again.” 11:47:20 PM 3/16/04 “I suspected that you just shortened the name to draw attention away from your toes. :)” 11:48:43 PM 3/16/04 “yeah, i remember that stuff - from somewhere back in school” 11:49:09 PM 3/16/04 “no - they don't know yet - but man oh man are there quite a few rather complicated theories out there - really fascinating stuff yeah - we wobble also - the axis shifts and the poles wander and the sun reverses polarity ~11yrs” 11:50:09 PM 3/16/04 Jump to Page << prev
