Oh you want more? Here we go:Archimede, Pascal and Newton were having a party at Archimede's beach house. They had been drinking heavily and had nothing more to talk after blaiming everything on Einstein. So they decided to play hide and seek.Archimede was first to count to hundred while the others went hiding. Pascal run under a boat, but Newton only took a few steps, drew a square in the sand and stepped into it. When Archimede had counted to hundred he opened his eyes and immediately saw Newton.- Newton, you daft prick, I can see you already!- No you can't.- What? Of course I can, I'm not that drunk.- No, I'm not Newton. I'm Pascal.- WTF! Are you on crack? You are clearly Newton.- Absolutely not. I'm Pascal.- I can see Pascal lying under the boat there for fuck's sake! You are Newton!- Nope. One Newton per square metre equals one Pascal.

While the proton really isn't a subatomic particle, regarding your newton/pascal joke: I have slightly forgiven you for being a Babkhan, Tahmaseb.

Errm, thanks Bill. But there's nothing to forgive.

Since when was a proton not a subatomic particle...? (well.. since one proton = a atom..hydrogen.. I can kinda see what you are getting at.. but... i consider that shaky ground...) E.

Trust me Erik, you don't want to start this. Not with Bill. Harvey SteffkeSai'Kar's Memories LiveJournal - ranting about Shirerothian issues since fall 2004.

I like to watch.

Actually, I'm curious as well as to why a proton would not count as a subatomic particle. Are you claiming that it is not because it's composed of much smaller particles (with cool names I can't remember) and therefore not one single object? I was always taught that it was a subatomic particle. *throws grenade for the hell of it*BO0O0O0O0/\/\!!!!!!

Reverend Bizarre fucking rocks, yo.True Doom Metal from Finland! SF-SN

Thankfully I've never heard them.

You're in Finnish Denial! SF-SN

No, I'm in my office.

What I don't understand here is why you specified that the proton is not a subatomic particle, but never said anything about neutrons... The league of sadistic telepaths: "There's someone in your head and it's not you"

I was always taught that it was a subatomic particle.Pretty much. Two up quarks, one down quark, as well as the gluons that exchange the strong nuclear force that confines them. A proton even has a radius, something that other, more fundamental subatomic particles do not. (If you are ignoring string theory, that is.) It would probably better to call the proton a nucleon than a subatomic particle.As well, the majority of the mass of the proton come from the strong force interactions within the quarks of the proton, rather than the rest of the subatomic particles' masses (quarks, electrons, neutrinos, W/Z bosons, etc.) - which is from their interaction with the Higgs Boson field.

Because I meant it as an example. Neutrons are in the same boat as protons, although they are udd instead of uud. There is such thing as an antineutron, by the way. (antiup + antidown + antidown, even thoguh the antineutron is still neutral in charge.)There is also countless other combinations of quarks; protons and neutrons are merely the most stable. (Well, neutrons are stable within the nucleus, not outside the nucleus, and if protons have a decay rate, it is incredibly friggin' slow) Bill Dusch - Archon of SoloralismCitizen of ShirerothBaron of AntyaProud to be Apollonianvar txtList = new Array()txtList[txtList.length]="'Whoa!

But still, in every textbook (and many Scientific American articles, oh how I love that magazine) I've read that discusses the structure of atoms, a proton is considered a subatomic particle, and it is also generally said that it is made up of the other, smaller particles. You're making a distinction that is not present in the science taught in college chemistry and in most scientific articles I've read on the subject. *throws grenade for the hell of it*BO0O0O0O0/\/\!!!!!!

Hey, Stjepan, this should make you happy:p220.ezboard.com/fkingdom...=497.topic

Is that Brewery of theirs from Railroad Tycoon, or am I just imagining things altogether?

haha, yes. Good times. SF-SN

Railroad Tycoon? I'd place it in Transport Tycoon... what with the level of detail not really fitting either RRT1 (obviously) or RRT3 (it seems its 3d models are rather simple - I've never played the game, though, so I can't really tell), and the style not really fitting RRT2 with its single buildings (as opposed to TTD's sprawling industrial complexes).
