    Live Science[^]:

    According to the author of the paper, Dan Hooper — harvesting energy from distant stars isn't just the best way to increase a civilization's available resources. It's also the only way to prevent the ever-expanding universe from leaving that civilization totally alone in the vastness of space.

    So... legalizing marijuana will have no side effects?

          Somehow your signature is quite adequate for this thread

          M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

            Just because the science is being performed in the American Midwest, that doesn't mean it's of lesser quality or importance. Albert Einstein was an :elephant:ing patent clerk while he did some of his most important work. Do we discard it simply because he wasn't working in the august halls of Oxford, Cambridge, etc.?

                Scientists shouldn't pass off their rejected 'B' movie scripts as "scientific papers."

                  To totally missed me, it seems... What I was saying, that just because this 'scientist' has the back of two - as much as I know well respected - institutes, every idiotic paper of him is published as 'science' - not only on the 1st of April...
