What do you belive happens to us after we die?
by Singing Man ini was raised a jehovah's witness and like most are aware, they presently belive that by and large everyone who dies ceases to exist.
i accepted this fate for most of my life and i guess i still do for the most part, but now that i do not go to the meetings what am i to accept death to be, as i will die as well as my friends and family at some point.
i think that idea of being in gods memory made sense to me as i have excepted it for forty five of my fifty years of being alive.

Forget the Big Bang...Listen to the Big Hum (audio from CBR)
by Mindchild ini thought this was a rather interesting audio file to listen to.
it is a 100 second audio representation of the big bang at the creation of the universe.
here is the article on the science behind it: http://www.eurekalert.org/pub_releases/2003-10/ns-ftb102903.php and here is the audio file itself: http://www.npl.washington.edu/av/bigbangsound_2.wav.

Bombarded by Particles....Whoaaat??
by Sentinel inyesterday near the end of my work day, around 4:30, i was listening to the best news station here on my work radio, (wtop) and heard something that seemed to be big news to me.
there was an informative discussion about the affects of this solar storm, and the consensus was that we may even have to totally disconnect all electronic devices, like telephones, pc's, vcr's, to "avoid damage".
it was stated that relying on the surge protectors will not work.
