Mesonychoteuthis hamiltoni. Discuss.Well, a lot of them have that, too. Really depends upon what animal you're talking about.

I'm watching the Great Barrier Reef as we speak! SpookyDinner time?
The animal kingdom is brilliant and quite scary too. The BBC has a brilliant range of TV shows recently on them (Frozen Planet, The Great Barrier Reef and Earthflight).
if scientists are so clever why is the world in such a mess?
Human settlements are good in that they're unlikely to be older than 50,000-70,000 years, which means we can use good old-fashioned carbon dating. Calibration has to be performed as [sup]14[/sup]C levels are not constant - things which are 6000 years old are carbon-dated as 7000 years old, if uncalibrated.What are the methodes used in order to date uncovered traces of ancient towns?
Classic victim mentality. Blame every one else.
So scientists shouldnt take any responsibility for the state of the world today?
Are scientists unwilling or just unable to make the world a better place.
It's a combination. There are pumps spread throughout the water system that keep the pressure high enough that the water comes out. Friction in the lines means that you have to have pumps in different places, and if you live in a larger building, they will have to have pumps on the higher floors to keep the water flowing. Pumps are also obviously used to push the water uphill.How is it that when I turn on the water facet at home, there's pressure that shoots it all out.
Does this pressure come locally or is it from the water company?
Sorry for the dumb question this time.
Well, that's one way. It's not universally used.
My guess would simply be space requirements. But yes, elevated tanks are quite efficient forms of energy storage, allowing the water company to only pump water into the tanks when it's cheapest.Certainly not. I'm curious why water towers wouldn't be used, however, since it seems like an elegant way to provide an even pressure even in the case of temporary power outages. The only city I've lived in that didn't use water towers had naturally occurring hills throughout the area, so they just built massive tank on those hills.
It sounds like dodgy mathematics to me. What where his units? I can divide my weight by my height and get any number I want - provided I choose the correct units.I once was watching a pastor on TV trying to explain the concept of time.
He did something weird.
He took the size of the universe and divided it by it's age and came up with 365, the same number of days we have in a year.
Anyone have a guess as to what theory this might be or was it most likely his own personal take on time?
"The world may be young and old simultaneously" is just a bad use of language. Either it's young, or it's old, or you've redefined young to mean old in which case your statement as lost all meaning.I think I found something on this.
Age of the Universe
I'll have to read it later since that page is a little too intensive for my tablet.
Can you poke any holes to this theory?
