This thread probably won't go anywhere cause of all the stupid rules.

You mean the rule where if someone thinks that a seperate topic should be made they must PM it to me and if they don't and just decide to make a thread they get a warning?
Yeah, 'cause that rule is totally a hindrance to this thread.

That George Kovarie IV guy brings up a very good point on the whole Triceratops/Torosaurus issue, though.

And considering Horner doesn't even take his own 'Rex was an obligate scavenger' theory seriously, I think he be trollin' the community.

Stygimoloch's going? Really? That's kind of sad. I'll also miss Nanotyrannus.

Hey, look on the bright side, that means T. Rex filled two ecological niches.

A huge explosion was detected 13 BILLION light years away. It was a disintegrating star. The fact that we can identify stuff like this is amazing.

a little late though... That means it happened about 13 billion years ago.

A light year is a unit of distance, the distance light travels in a year. The star disintegrated 13 billion years ago, and it took 13 billion years for the light to reach us.

skreeonk I knew I'd mess it up, I always thought a light year was like 9.45x10^15 years, but I also knew it was miles, just plain idiocy on my part

Wrong again.

Firstly, it's in kilometers, not miles.

Secondly, it's 9.45 multiplied with 10^12, not 10^15.

Just for future reference

Israeli scientists now claim that the Jews are a "superior race."

Adolf Hitler would shit his pants.

[King Caesar]

Where would we be without SG2010 helping us out with the relative distance of a single light year?

The whole light year thing is quite interesting. I've always wondered if there's some way to break the speed of light...I mean, what the hell would happen!?
