[QUOTE="mikenoodle, post: 493782, member: 307"]my point is that he would make a horrible theoretical physics student. You have to operate on assumptions that ANYTHING could be possible, not known fact. If you continue to look at things from the same, staid viewpoint, you will only get the same answers.
