I’ve added a link at the right for the Intuitor Movie Physics site. Good explanations of where movies commonly get the physics wrong. Some reviews as well; “The Core” is called the Worst Physics Movie Ever.

It’s MFH’s (my foofy husband’s) birthday today!!!
Last night, in the middle of talking about God and quantum indeterminancy, he connected it to evolution: “so you have this water, and then, BAM! A fish!” Actually, it would be a fish and an anti-fish. With mass-energy equivalence (Einstein’s E=mc^2), a particle and its […]
