Why a day is divided by 12/24 hours? Why the number 12? Hey, I love your six fingers theory! |

US time zones and Daylight saving time, energy efficient? Excellent! These kind of information is exactly what I need. I hope there is some research on time zone issues too! |

US time zones and Daylight saving time, energy efficient? HAHA, I am just afraid that the people on Skeptics are not familiar with "energy" or "science" topic enough... |

US time zones and Daylight saving time, energy efficient? Thanks! Of cause, politics, economy, culture, and science are all equally important. I did know that some members of our gov believes that NOT using time zones would keep China chicken shaped. Which means Tibet and Xinjiang would not go away from us. LOL But I do hope to see if there is anyone in the US who has done a research from energy aspect to study this problem. |

US time zones and Daylight saving time, energy efficient? "DST probably has more to do with politics than energy", sorry I couldn't follow you, can you elaborate a little further? Why did you say it's maybe politics related? Thanks |

US time zones and Daylight saving time, energy efficient? LOL, I know, I know (I'm a Chinese), so you think without using time zones, it will waste a lot of energy? We once tried for a year when I was young, but later we gave up. The reason I am asking here is I am more concerned about scientific proof, I want to see the report. |

Why a day is divided by 12/24 hours? Why the number 12? Then 36 is a good number too, so we can enjoy more church bells everyday. |

Why a day is divided by 12/24 hours? Why the number 12? No offense, we Chinese use 12 (Chinese zodiac) to mark time for a long time. It seems that number "12" is a common observation all over the world. |

Questions about the speed of light and the extent of the universe And when you answered "That's the way the universe was made.", are you implying that you believe that the universe was designed? |

Questions about the speed of light and the extent of the universe Wait, wait, when you mentioned Maxwell's equations, there are electric constant and magnetic constant therein, and your answer told me that the light is not the first cause. My question is this, why these constants have to be constant? Is there any more fundamental physical laws determine these? Some laws perhaps we have not found yet. Why it has to be 8.85E-12 blahblah? What is the reason of that? For example, in turbulence study, the kappa constant in law of wall these years has shown to be not constant anymore... |

Questions about the speed of light and the extent of the universe If so, then theoretically speaking, isn't it fully possible that there is not just one big bang, but many big bangs, some are even happening right now, but we never will know during our limited years and limited sphere and knowledge. Because there is just one single big bang seems to be weird to be? Why there is just one. OOPS :) |

Need advice on bluff-body aerodynamic research No, it is not necessary related to computation. I would like to hear advice from even pure fluid mechnicists. |

How to integrate twice of this viscous term? Hmm, so how to apply chain rule to this term $\vec a \cdot \nabla \cdot \nabla \vec b$, so that I can move the $\vec a$ into the $\nabla$ operator? Thanks |
