Wow - I was just watching an old episode of Ren & Stimpy, one that I remember from when I was a kid. My God, I can't believe that was ever on Nickelodeon. Really, it boggles my mind that they got away with having that on children's television.
So...

I guess you never saw how bad it got on Spike.

Nah, never saw it on Spike, though I know it got a lot worse. That doesn't shock me, though - I mean, we have things like Adult Swim. But even on Nickalodeon, I mean, wow - I'm just impressed they could get away with that stuff.
Hey, they got away with Linda Elerbee(sp?) on Nickelodian, which was pure, unfiltered propaganda, as well as hinting that Spongebob is gay. They can put anything on that channel.

Nope. Positron is just a different name for anti-electron. They annihilate. Although...maybe a force field based on that? Not repulsions though. If anything they attract. Opposite charges, remember?
I've heard of Ren and Stimpy, but never seen it. Was it any good?

Oh please - you clearly have never seen Ren & Stimpy - pure, unadulterated cartoon subversion at its finest. Screw Spongebob - hinting at Spongebob being gay doesn't even come close to some of the things they got away with on Ren & Stimpy
Amaster, yes, yes, a thousand times yes, Ren & Stimpy was truly one of the most incredible cartoons to come from the 90s.
Duh. I can't think today. What I meant to say was a barrier of protons to repel the positrons. Wouldn't that work? They should repel each other since they have the same charge.
Theoretically possible, if you had a way to strip the electrons off a bunch of Hydrogen, you're left with pure protons. I'm not sure how stable it would be though.
If it's stable enough for nucleur fusion, it's stable enough for this. *shot*

Not as stable as H3O+. Just acidic water.
Ok, I can't take this anymore!
CLORAL! I'm calling you out on the basis of your username.
YOU'VE READ THE PENDRAGON BOOK SERIES, HAVEN'T YOU!
You having the EXACT same username as the name of the Second Territory can't just be a random coincidence!
Well, am I right?
Also... Russ...I had a dream last night that would make you green. I dream I was in a fusion of both Earthbound and Pendragon. I was running around my local area running from pursuers, and yet, I had PK fire, ice, and Thunder. It was awesome. I never hit anything with them though. I was just in a perking lot and decided to do a bit of practice. I pretty much used them like Lucas does in Brawl. (probably not too much of a co-incidence, since I just started using him)

Eh, I think it's different. H+ may be a single proton, but it's bonded to something else, and still holds the electron...kinda. I'm not sure what a pure soup of protons without any electrons at all would behave as.
I mean, falling back to a chemistry example, in a Redox-in-acid reaction we say that we balance by adding H+, but we're not really putting pure protons in there.

Awesome.
Speaking of which, we should fight each other on Brawl. Quite unexpectedly, my best fighters are Ness and Lucas. Am I correct in assuming that yours is Sonic?
Last night I had a weird dream where I was at my old elementary school, only people from highschool were there. And I was using the Infernal Wrath spell from Fable to kill everyone. Then some girl jumped on my back and it prevented me from casting the spell, which led to an awkward conversation between me and someone I was trying to kill. I said something along the lines of, "Isn't it funny, I'm trying to kill all you guys?". Then I woke up. Then I ate a million Oreos.
I had a dream last night. In my dreams, which took place four years from now, I was being tormented by Obama's secret police for speaking up against him.

Yes, and now that he's won, he's going to put on a turban, declare this nation an Islamic state, and kill all the Christian infidels who refuse to worship Allah. *facepalm*

How many Oreos did you eat when you woke up?

None. I hate oreos.

Because I can't stand chocolate. *Waits to get mercilessly torn apart*

I always knew there was something fundamentally wrong with you, Russ. I just couldn't quite place it until this moment.
russadwan wrote:Because I can't stand chocolate. *Waits to get mercilessly torn apart*
Not by me. I don't really care for chocolate either. 'specially that MILK chocolate! 
I just buy Oreos sometimes because they're one of the few vegan snacks I can get around where I live.
I used to be very intolerant of chocolate. Now I can handle it in small quantities, and, given the right stuff (like Hershey's Symphony bars), I even seek it out occasionally.
I like Oreos, but I prefer Newman-O's by Newman's Own Organics.
Newman-Os are superior, but like I said I only buy Oreos because I can get them around where I live. When I go out to the supermarket where they have Newman-Os, there's better things for me to choose from.

The proton comes because your reaction is occurring in water, which, no surprise, has H3O+. That is the source of the proton.
Yes, I know where it comes from, that's my whole point. We've never actually observed what would happen if you took a bunch of pure protons, without any electrons or other elements around.
How could you get them all together? I mean as far as I know, you can't even do it with electrons, so how could you do it with protons?
Seems like we're reinventing the atom.

Seriously, nice work.
Alright, first post! From within my first working installation of Ubuntu, that is. This is very exciting - mainly because previous installs have always had driver issues.
