    I tried asking him via PMs but it yielded no result. I think he's trying to start a new ATOT trend.

    What is dB re 1 Pa/V.

    The Pa/V is throwing me off. You can't take the logarithm of a dimensional quantity. What is log(10m)? I know what the log(10) is, but I don't know what the log(10 meters) is.

    Pedophilia Incurable?

    Homosexual sex involves two (or more) consenting adults who are able to make their own decisions. Pedophilia involves children where oftentimes they aren't able to make their own decisions. Edit: Spelling.

    Would this be a funny prank?

    I believe my formulation is still correct. * > Dr. Pepper. Would you rather take mathematical advice from someone whose screen name is based on an integral or a grocery store? Although, in the regarding the case of Dr. Pepper (pun intended), grocery stores might be more accurate...

    Would you take a brunette more serious than a blonde?

    As long as you don't sound like an idiot or ditz when you talk, hair colour makes no difference to me. If my BS detector goes off, I won't take you seriously.

    need advice for a good first time part-time job

    My first job was Old Navy when I was 16. Not too bad a place to work. Plus, you get discounts at Old Navy, Gap and Banana Republic since they all have the same parent company.

    OMG- A music company actually learns they can make money from free music!

    It only lets you stream. How is that much different from an online radio? If you could download the music, that'd be a different thing...

    Oh noes!

    How is your day so far? Mine was pretty good. Woke up. Watched Terminator 3, went to work and now have a meeting with my supervising Prof. at 1. Going to have lunch after my meeting and then slacking off the rest of the day.

    Can someone give me a quick run down on imaginary numbers?

    Complex numbers aren't too bad. You can think of complex numbers graphically on an X-Y plane, except the X axis is now known as the Real axis and the Y axis is the Imaginary axis. So, for example, the number 3 + 4i would represent a point with the coordinates (3,4). Now, if you look at...

    1 milli-watt = 10 dBm ? 1 dBm ?

    A bit late, but I second this. The "m" in dBm tells you that the power is referenced to 1mW. As ScottMac stated, the power output of 1 mW would be 10*log(1mW/1mW) = 10*log(1) = 0 dBm For 1 W, you'd have 10*log(1W/1mW) = 10*log(1000) = 30 dBm.
