My stomach hurts from laughing at that shit. The hide-and-seek is so damn true, then he got to the why?, why?, why? and I almost cried.

Holy shit that bit about kids was funny.

And apparently my physics classes are obsolete. Mass and energy are pretty much just different names for the same thing (and neither = "matter").

I went over this stuff in Astronomy a little over a year ago. It's too bad I sold my book. There were some very useful analogies in there and I could have posted some background information. It's interesting to hear what they (Astrophysicists and the like) have to say.

lol @ those vids

All of that "empty" space, between astronomical bodies, isn't empty. If there's just one hydrogen atom, in a cubic kilometre of space, then how would you ever be able to see it?
