    Really? You're trying to recover using that? OK. You win.

    If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader.-John Q. Adams
    You must accept one of two basic premises: Either we are alone in the universe, or we are not alone in the universe. And either way, the implications are staggering.-Wernher von Braun
    Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.-Albert Einstein

      This must be too far over my head for me to understand. http://functionspace.org/articles/6/Understanding-the-most-beautiful-equation-in-Mathematics[Understanding the most beautiful equation in Mathematics] My head was swimming after reading through the whole article and then it came down to:

      Quote:

      If we put, x=π , we get: eiπ = −1 as cosπ = −1 and sinπ = 0 or eiπ + 1 = 0

      Ahhh, ok... but doesn't all that just mean: -1 + 1 = 0 ??? :wtf:

      By that measure e=mc2 comes down to "the bigger something is the more eneregy it has" 'cause c is a constant, so therefore is csquared. So Sally it's just e is proportional to m No biggie
