    Whos had a root canal?

    Sorry, but it looks like your dentist is an idiot. Root canal should not hurt at all after treatment. First doctors kill nerve in a tooth then they clean up all crap from it and seal it. So you should not feel this tooth at all. Problems start when the dentist leave some crap behind then...

    A Computer Simulation

    It all depends on times scale and precision you want to achieve. Generally speaking you can model orbits of 100-200 bodies on a modern computer within reasonable time and with ok accuracy. By modeling I mean that you calculate 2 body interaction of all possible pairs at each step. But here is...

    WoW question

    True, I have not played priest much, completely forgot about priest's racial spells. Mages are fun in pve (have not tried a mage in pvp). The good part is frost aoe grinding, from my experience (aoe lvled from 26 to 60) fire and arcane are not good for aoe. Mass killing of mobs fun because...

    NE druid + NE priest are better then NE draenei, priest can not stealth but NE can shadowmeld a nice surprise for an unexperienced blood elf. Draenie's racials not very usefull for a priest, imho. If you decide to go with lock , gnome might be better: difficult to target , easy to hide in...

    ~~Would you go to Uganda in these times~~

    What is the reason to go there? Just work hard for a month and donate your salary to a charity. For these money they can probably hire 10 local guys to make movies for them, not only it would do the job but it is also an investment in local economy and would make life of a few guys there a...

On average they smell less, run away less (male dogs are always looking for a thing to hump especially if there is...

    E=mc^2

    E=mc^2 does not mean that the only way to "store" energy is mass. It just implies that if you get somewhere an energy E you can create a mass m=E/c^2 or if you somehow converted a mass m into something else this new thing would have energy mc^2. There is not need to drag string theory into this...
