What We Still Don't Know is infinitely better than this lowest com denom bs

I find it a bit un-nerving that people don't want to push themselves or want more.

then watch what we still don't know. it's 3 episodes

It often comes with maturity and age. It's a bit unfair to generalise in this way as most people I know and associate with tend to want to improve themselves and learn more.
Some of the material in this show is stuff that a lot of people won't have studied for years, and It's always going to be basic when targeted at a mass audience.

i think i saw this m-theory one a few years ago and liked it

I can obviously only speak for myself but I think a bit of an unfair representation. I personally watch this as more of an entertainment show. If it teaches me something, then brilliant. And it has, for that matter. A lot of it I already know but there's bits and pieces which are really interesting. The main thing that makes this better than a lot of stuff is that it doesn't get too bogged down with complex maths that might stop it from being entertaining and inspiring.

That said, if I want to learn I'll go and read a book or look up some serious scientific lectures on the net.

Something tells me he doesn't like Top Gear

Watched the final one of this series last night, I was a bit baked but I thoroughly enjoyed it. By far the strongest one of the series.

Contemplating buying the BR boxed set for a tenner.... but I have them on Xvid O_O

corrie it is then.

it's alright, he doesnt explain things very well though, everything and nothing was much better, shame they only did two.

Yeh, everything or nothing was brilliant.

firky wrote:Did anyone think the one on Gravity was pony? This series has been weaker than the last but this episode was really bad. If anyone watching needs the basic principles of gravity taught to them, then why are they even watching the show or up at 9pm?

this was exceptionally poor, i found the explanation/comparison with mountain ranges utterly confusing and pointless

watch Michio Kaku's lectures on youtube, he is great

oh and

Deamonds, ever read Physics of the Impossible by Michio Kaku?
It hasn't dumbed anything down, but it is readable and covers loads of interesting topics.
Highly recommend it.

Iv'e JUST finished reading it!! How much of a coincidence, his lectures led me to his book. Great taste sir!

The chapter about psychokinesis was so engrossing.
