    You are a Christian as am I, please don't tell me you think there are no ghosts. Beyond that we can take it to the other thread. Alan

    problem has been resolved, thanks to everybody that replied

    Re: Lazerer.com is a scam Did those batteries ship with the laser? I know nothing of that laser, but it looks like it takes 2 of them, the batteries look like flat top, not button top, when using 2 of them they will not make contact, also not all lasers have a spring at both ends. If you don't...

    That is a very good question, one we can only guess about. I would not be surprised if there are many dead worlds out there that once had advanced civilizations. Perhaps only a few survive, we could easily destroy ourselves right now, we could even do it one day by accident. When they tested the...

    You both have a valid point. There's no telling how long a civilization would use radio, there must be a better technology that we haven't discovered yet, and no telling if there's anyone close by that's at a similar stage of development to us, or anyone close by at all. Our own system is a...

    This is complete nonsense, just within 100 light years there are about 512 stars, not including white dwarf stars. Within 50 light years if we count just the ones visible to the naked eye from earth they number 133. I have been listening to Seth Shostak on the radio for many years now and he...

    Many people think this. There have been sightings and even visitors throughout history, but it wasn't until 1947 that they started showing up in large numbers. Our first atomic bomb test was at the Trinity test site in New Mexico in 1945. This is also near the White Sands missile test range and...

    Military coup in Turkey.

    The caliphate (ISIS) will probably fall, but another will rise in its place, they just need the right leader. I doubt that would be Erdogan, but keep a close watch. When it happens it will rise to a major world power, we are talking about quite a large population. Those of you in Europe...

    Military coup in Turkey.

    I think you underestimate the power of nuclear weapons, even the low yield ones, and you underestimate the North Koreans. North Korea nuclear tests: what did they achieve? - BBC News Maybe you just don't want to believe it's true. Alan

    You have an excuse for everything don't you? Why it's not possible. I have read that us or them should even be able to detect the use of large scale power systems like our power grids from hundreds of light years away. I also wouldn't be surprised if they can detect the use of thermonuclear...

    Have you ever heard of satellites? Nearly all of our television goes through satellites, so yes we do transmit it directly into space, much of our other communications also goes through satellites. We have been transmiting into space for many years now. Alan

    Military coup in Turkey.

    I disagree with this, today technology can spread faster than you think. For quite some time now there have been reports that Pakistan, North Korea, and Iran have been sharing both missile and nuclear technology. Perhaps it's all BS and fear mongering, let's hope so because Pakistan has nukes...

    laserbtb HL515-30..... DOA? *solved*

    Re: laserbtb HL515-30..... DOA? Alex please buy some small neodymium magnets so you can freely use flat tops in any laser. I use some tiny 1/8 x 1/16 discs, I bought a package of 100 on Amazon but I can't find any that size on Amazon at the moment. United Nuclear has them in stock though...

    I Have a hard time believing that China would build something like that just to burn money. What makes you think that? Of course it is, if it's built for the purpose they claim, then they will want to make the discovery themselves and release it to the world. Alan
