Science: Evidence of the Paranormal

This is by far the creepiest video that I have ever seen. In no way do I believe in ghosts, but this video may have made a believer out of me.

Contributions from "The Antagonist"

My apologies to the Antagonist, I've been storing these posts and haven't had as much time to add them to the blog. So for all those you who have been waiting anxiously, here they are (the second one is extremely interesting, made me kind of laugh because its true)...

Simply put, black holes aren't black.

Heaviest element now known to science. Will there be another contender? Who knows.

Science: Mmmmm...Pie Pans

This is a short video on about an inventor, John Kanzius, who in the middle of the night came up with an idea to cure cancer and ended up discovering a possible solution to the world's energy crisis.

Using his wife's pie pans he created a radio frequency generator. The goal was to use radio waves to heat up metals injected into cancerous cells, thus killing cancer cells and leaving the healthy. The interesting thing is, this machine also burns saltwater at an intense temperature (1650 degrees celsius) which in turn can be used to run an engine.

Another interesting fact is the energy released is actually hydrogen. The flame and heat is breaking down the hydrogen-oxygen bond.
