I require clarification, although I'm terrified that I might get an answer.
Is it RB's actual underpants that are radioactive, or the contents of them? and How do you know?
Do you often feed strawberry underpants cake to your fish? Why are you a crazy person? You make me ashamed to be from PA.
Well of course not. Then they'd never get anything done. Do you know how long it takes to chisel words into stone? And just think of what happens if you slip or hit the chisel too hard.
Never did get why people were so big on writing things on stone anyways. Even discounting the above issues, the weight alone makes it a rather silly thing to write things down on.
JB, Do not watch unless you've finished the game. It's a prize for winners.

Only gonna make one comment on this thread and it comes not only as a ? you to consider but a statement of the past history of science.
HOW OFTEN HAS TRUE SCIENCE NOT BEEN ACCEPTED BY IT'S "PEER" GROUP OF THE DAY ONLY TO BE FOUND OUT MORE THAN A FEW YEARS DOWN THE ROAD THAT IT'S "PEER" GROUP WAS THE ONE IN THE WRONG?
I am sure that Galileo was not accepted by his peer group, nor was Tesla yet history shows in these two cases who was right and who was wrong.
Just because the majority chooses to blacklist something does not make them right. When the time comes that science is done for science sake and not for corporate profit and sponsorship then perhaps truth will be the end of the gambit.

The Earth is flat and at the center of the universe. Careful if you're traveling....don't want to fall off the edge.
Galileo's work was banned by the church, not by scholars and other astronomers. The chief opponent to his theory was based on a mathematical model and scripture. His findings refuted the math. They were later confirmed which direct observations in the 9th century.
Unfortunately, at the time of his work it was very dangerous for anyone to come out with any theory that contradicted what the church was saying.
As far as Tesla, a lot of his work was accepted by peers, he had a financial war with Edison, but many of his discoveries were accepted, implemented, and used within his own life time.
There is always one in every crowd. :swear:
Neither of those people were victims of peer-rejection. Galileo went up against the church at a time when it was not willing to accept any potential threats to its power. Any other time and he probably wouldn't have even had that problem. Tesla may have been a scientific genius, but he wasn't all that good with people (not all that uncommon). If he hadn't put so much trust in his boss, and later the belief that he could fight someone with so much influence and power, he probably would have been a lot more successful.
