Rethinking it, the bullet would fire out at 2000km/h regardless but the shooter's velocity in the opposite direction would have to increase also.

Has anyone ever decided to go as far to say as which the graphics are could have been? Also, how do you calculate a proper ratio comparing x# of things to nothing (i.e. 11 kills to 0 deaths)?

OT: If you have a gun that shoots bullets at exactly 2000km/h, and you were on a platform moving you exactly 2000km/h, and you fired the gun backwards... What would happen?
Errr... it falls directly to the ground?

"Didn't Communism fail?"
it hasnt been properly practiced yet, nor will it ever be.
First statement is true, second is not.
To many people like to have power, so the odds are greatly tipped against communism
I'm not sure if that's true. I've never understood the desire for such power myself.

Have you ever read a maths book? This isn't me saying it's not true because I believe it isn't true. I made a mathematical statement. I can prove it. I have proved it before, I learned how to prove it, and I can do so again. Hence it must be that what I said was true, because I can prove that it is true. You have obviously never studied maths beyond the most basic level, otherwise you would understand my point. No offence meant, but what I said is not ridiculous in any way whatsoever.
Hm? I'm a Computer Science undergrad, so I have a fairly solid background in mathematics. Anyway, the mathematics were not what I was disputing. I was merely inferring that statements based on impossibility/possibility based on perceived truths (truth is not to be confused with fact) are inherently ridiculous. In terms of the mathematical side of things, I am actually inclined to agree with you.

You see, sir, I am a serial pedant [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pedant] (not to be confused with a troll, I'm not annoying on purpose, just out of my nature). :)

0.9 recurring (that is, nines going on forever after the decimal point) does not equal 1. This is impossible, because it's untrue. The to numbers are indeed equal. Yeah. So anyone who posted on that maths thread ages ago and disputed that, I'd like to see you prove your point to a Maths undergraduate. Hah. I bet you can't, can you? ;)
That's easy. Start with a non-Archimedean numbering system where infinitesimals exist. If 0.0...1 is actually a defined number, then trivially
0.(9) =/= 1.

What happens when two object going light speed collide?
Nothing only light can move at the speed of light (ironic no?) and light has no mass... it'd pass right through.
Untrue, photons do have mass. That's where the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle comes in, you cannot know the location and velocity of a sub-atomic particle at the same time. That's because one or the other changes when hit by a photon.
They have rest-mass. I think the word you're searching for is momentum. After all, if photons couldn't interact with anything then we wouldn't see anything.

Who farted in 2536 B.C on 15th October at 15:24:57 in China?
Also, how many people fart at that time?

OptimusPrime33 said:
ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DUN DUN DUUUUUUUUUUUUNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! also 984,233 people in China farted including me at the same time
twostripe said:
Hu Flung Pu farted along with 97 other people
twostripe gave me a more plausible quantity of farters. But still, the court demands decisive evidence, what you two are lacking, severely.
Also, OptimusPrime, immortality potion pl0x?
