So, like.
You've ever wondered about something, I mean ANYTHING!

But you never dared to ask or something?
Well, ask them here and the expert panel (the rest of us) will answer the question with our best judgement.

Ok, I got one question.
Sometimes they show on TV that (for example) 10000 people watched a specific channel at 6pm. How do they check that?

Do they have these strange little transmitters in all TV's that sends away what everyone is watching or what?

I think how they do it is that the satellite that picks up and sends tv signals it recieves from the tv station and sends to the viewers tv that channel and it keeps track of it because of the signals that go through the satellite. And if the viewer stays on for a certain amount of time, they count as a viewer of that channel.

DON'T TAKE MY WORD ON IT. It is just my theory, but I'm pretty sure that's how it works.

My question is: How does gravity work? I mean, what actually CREATES gravity? I never figured out what creates it and why and how.

Gravity has something to do with the moon and stuff, hasn't it?

But I dunno how the moon makes gravity work.
Gotta ask my teacher in school about it..

The moon's gravity affects the seas, but the thing that keeps us on the planet is... umm... gotta ask Yngve or dad sometime, they know such stuff.

gravity is affected by the density and size of the object. you have gravity but the earth has more so you can't really see the things that are attracted to you cause they are so tiny in comparison to you. everything has gravity, i don't think anyone knows HOW it accually works besides that though.

question- on movies they say "specially fitted for your tv" or something like that. what the heck? how do they know that, are their little people in my tv telling them how big it is?

Well, I am going to use figures called "magic fairies" as used by my web design teacher. Anyway, I assume that when the tape is played, they send information to the vcr the picture, now when the data is encoded in a format that allows the picture to adjust to the screen. The magic fairies inside the tv reads the code when transmitted via yellow plug and realize their limitation thus putting the picture on the tv for your recreational viewing!

This is just a guess, no knowledge involve whatso ever!

Okay this is my question but we have discussed it previously so no need to answer.

Is space inifinite? If so, when will it stop? If not, what is at the end?

Also I have trouble grasping space as a 3D object and not 2D. Eucludian Geometry messed my mind.

So far next week, all I have is basketball practices! No games for a while.

As I said before, I think that somehow, space is shaped like a globe.

Meaning just like on earth, there is no edge, you just go round and round and round and round and....

I don't really understand what Hobbes said.. or i kinda do, but i'm absolutely braindead at the moment, so.. yeah, but the video thing kinda works like this. I'll use example because that's the only way i can answer it,lol..

Let's say you go to the movies to see.. um.. a movie. let's say in the movie there are three passengers in the front seat of a car. In theatres you can see those three passangers at the same time while they're talking to eachother, while on your TV, they made it so you could only see two passengers at the same time. the cameras must move back and forth during the dialogue of all three passangers =)

okay i have a really good, but pointless question.
What are those plastic things at the end of your shoe laces called?
i dunno.. i just always wanted to know.. =\

It is necessary so that a company does not monopolize over a product and charge whatever they want because you don't have a choice to buy it. Also it is nice to have a choice so if you hate a company, you can buy it from another one. Like Nike and Reebok, if only Nike sold shoes then you would have an monopoly and Micheal Jordan Shoes would be 300 dollars at least. If you hate Nike, you are stuck with it. So be happy with the brands!
