I don't say "I believe" at the beginning of that, because I've seen the numbers, and it's just a matter of plain fact.

It was closed. For reasons, I hasten to add, completely unrelated to any evolution-creation acrimony.

Holy crapulance, that was painful to read, Strider. I was kind of with him (I assume the writer was a him because he thought of castrating scientists as the worst possible punishment) on the opposites thing. Then the four simultaneous days thing came out and then a lot of angry ranting. How odd. Can anyone explain this more coherently?

I went and slammed my head against the wall a few times to make it feel better, and it woke up my neighbor who started yelling racial slurs at me, and this also made my head feel better. Then I went and read some more. Man am I dumb.

If you tire of arguing with someone, you can just sit and bask in the glow of the Cubepage. There, the utter meaninglessness of arguing with someone who is irrational will fill you with a pure, careless light.

Making fun of the mentally ill... what have we come to?
I remember in college, someone used to compile these xeroxes patched together from rants like this. He went on about Reagan and Pennsylvania Dutch, and it had the same schizo tone as the TimeCube page. I wonder what sent Gene Ray over the edge.

Doesn't a cube have six faces? I think Time Cube has broken my brain. Again. And I hadn't visited since the second page was added.
Anyone up for creating a m alternative involving triangles and declaring war on the time cube?
"The universe can be defined as a shape involving three planes of equal sides. Our inability to mentally picture this element is the reason behind our failure to comprehend all the realities that surround us."
Hmm, may have to add in a few evils and more severe profanities to make it more popular...

Can some1 explain in laymans terms whats that all about? All ig to out of it so far was that the maximum size ted came up with was exceeded on an individual basis.

Basically, mass goes up as a cubic function while surface area goes up as a square function, so you can't just scale a small thing up and expect it to function at larger sizes. This guy Ted took that fact and decided the maximum mass of something is X lbs.
This maximum is incorrect, because large things in nature aren't just scaled up versions of small things.
More importantly, for the purpose of this thread, there's no theoretical reason why you can't have something a LOT bigger then an elephant.
Or was that too much summary and not enough detail?

Indeed, the final result would be better with a little tad but more details.
