As matter accelerates past the schwartzchild radius, time slows down for it, so a person falling into a black hole would never actually get there, and may never die.<BR/><BR/>Yes, yes, I know that's based on a popular scifi oriented ignorance of proper physics, but so are the fears that the LHC will destroy the earth, the human race or even the entire universe. So one good myth deserves another!Zorghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11520058273816960539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5439893903732515728.post-40393112959236823762008-09-11T01:40:00.000-07:002008-09-11T01:40:00.000-07:00@ dwg: Thanks for pointing that out!Besides the c...@ dwg: Thanks for pointing that out!<BR/><BR/>Besides the cool warranty there, I'm also interested in just exactly how Javascript parses the following line of the script:<BR/><BR/><I>if (!(typeof worldHasEnded == "undefined"))</I>The Samurai Radiologisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14821218260930916714noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5439893903732515728.post-16705452136515220782008-09-10T23:40:00.000-07:002008-09-10T23:40:00.000-07:00It's worth doing a "View Source" on that page!It's worth doing a "View Source" on that page!David W.
