'Cos they can use the flaps under their arms to glide. I do kind of want to know who the hell threw cats off buildings in order to find this out. ...and the terminal velocity of a mouse on Earth is not enough to kill it when it hits the ground. |

It was premiered on Spetember 30th. That and I know for a fact that the Season 4 Deadly Gladiator set is inferior for PVE compared to the Season 3 for tanks as it does not provide them with enough defense to complete their damage mitigation. It leaves them off by 7 points, meaning they can still get critted. |

well that's true of anything that has a high surface area to weight ratio. also said ratio is the way insects and animals achieve flight. it's the way parachutes work etc. oh here's one I know the fundamental differences in operation between object oriented languages and function oriented ones. |

Muckraker Posts: 228 Joined: 5 Mar 2008 | An average 70kg human body contains around 4g of radioactive potassium-40. Optimus Prime was called "Convoy" in Japan because his toy was a re-release of the Battle Convoy mecha/playset from the Diaclone toy line produced by Takara, in a different box and with the pilots removed. Some early runs of Optimus Prime were repackaged Battle Convoys and still had metal plates in the trailer, because Diaclone men have magnetic feet. Shoji Kawamori was contracted to design the world's first fully transforming robot toy after demonstrating how it could be done in a meeting using origami. The transforming jet became the Macross VF-1, also appearing in Robotech and in Transformers as the Jetfire toy, although his animation model had to be changed radically since the Macross anime creators had the rights to the animation model directly based on the toy. I could go on like this for hours. Hours. That alone is probably the nerdiest fact I know. -Nick |

What was the average Kill/Death Ratio of the 300 Spartans?
Obviously the deaths will be 1 but what about the kills?
Now present nerdy facts, questions and answers to other's nerdy questions (if you got them).
