If yellowbounder = yb, then that's very true.

However, since yellowbounder actually is abreviated to YB, hmmm... :(

Probably is, cause you are all lower cases.

I don't really get these title suggestions.

The fact that both usernames consist of two completely random words put together that happen to start with "Y" and "B" does not give them some kind of spiritual connection that makes said title funny.

I dunno, what if Scully is a troll and lurks and needs to be replaced all the time?

What if she steals all your schtick?

I'm impressed. In the right situation, AniX has the power to make sound travel faster than the speed of sound!

Not only this, but he has the power to make sound travel at various speeds, so that they all arrive at every point on the planet, at the exact same time.

Nominate AniX for "Physics? What Physics?"

If something is everywhere in a single time, then it doesn't have a speed.

Speed = Distance/Time

Since the same time means that it is an instantaneous effect, then time = 0, and thus distance is meaningless, so therefore Speed is divided by 0, and the speed is undefined.

I thought by 'same time' he meant 'simultaneously' not 'instantaneously.'

Yeah. It cannot have a speed, because the distance isn't constant.

It can have a speed if the sound arrives everywhere so fast that it appears to be instantaneous. There can be an infinitesimally small time gap between the nearest and farthest points receiving the sound.

Some napkin back/ten-key calculations:

For the sound to hit all points w/in one second assuming it originates at the equator, it would need to be moving at ~ 90 million mph (~144 km/h).

And pedants; that should be 144 million km/h, gorckat.

I think all these calculations and science-terms are rendered mute by the fact that none of you rendered the thought I would be screaming my joy at the 11th Hour, ergo everything would work out in some way/shape/form. Off the top of my head:

At the exact time I scream, a mystical portal forms in front of me. My sound waves enter the portal, in which billions of little tiny, tiny portals are formed in everyone's ears that are connected to whatever wacky matter-filled void the original portal lead to. The sound would then come out of this portal into everyone's ears. However, the portal is also a portal to the past, albeit a portal to the very, very recent past, specifically the exact moment I screamed my joy. Ergo, at the exact moment I scream my joy, everyone is hearing it.

Is this concept REALLY that hard to grasp? I mean really people, this isn't Shakespearean rocket science.

Also, I think that I have way too many gimmicks already for Flea's title to be anything I can accept. I can't add "Some what of a odd interpretation of physics" to an already bloated business card.

Also, a one-off joke does not make a good title. At least not in this case.

It doesn't even make any sense at this point, now that the whole truth of what would happen in the hypothetical situation has come to light. Mystical time portals to other dimensions then the generation of billions of micro-portals are always physics-forward.
