Will Coleman actually sue Gore, when it will expose him to a countersuit for "abuse of process"?
Q. If you file a lawsuit against someone with no good cause, they can collect damages against you for abuse of process. Since all these guys agree with Gore, Coleman would seem to be at risk for that. The National Academy of Sciences, the American Association for the Advancement of Science, the American Institute of Physics, the American Chemical Society, the American Geophysical Union, the American Meteorological Association, etc. Also: "The overwhelming majority of atmospheric scientists around the world and our own National Academy of Sciences are in essential agreement on the facts of global warming and the significant contribution of human activity to that trend."

A. The correct answer is "NO". Coleman seems to be full of the stuff associated with the greenhouse gas methane. There is no case, he has no lawyer, and no courtroom in the country that probably wouldn't throw this out in an instant. This was nothing but a ridiculous PR statement. And his minion followers demonstrate their ignorance of both science and law, by swallowing it as reasonable.

We see every day how many people around here mistakenly link together the science of global warming with their own fear of government repression or a socialist "plot". 2) We live in a society where the political extremes dominate the conversations. This causes a lot of mistrust.

Is Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle possibly an illusion?
Q. The other day, I saw that the American Institute of Physics had a display of what neurologists and psychologists consider the best illusion in the world (the link is below). Depending on how you were observing the illusion--i.e., what exactly you were looking at--the spinning ball acted differently. I wonder if the Uncertainly Principle is also an illusion. That is, we see things the way we do because of the "spin" (or some such) of particles, and not because they are actually behaving as we think they are behaving. Would the physicists please comment? I just finished Hawking's books and I guess my mind is still on this stuff. As you can tell, I am not a physicist AT ALL. Just wondering... Here is the link:

A. This will be a brief answer; not because I don't want to help you, but because I really can't. What I did for college apps was print out a list of the best 75 colleges in the US: Then I highlighted colleges in my price range that I was interested in attending and that had a reasonable acceptance rate. I had about 30 colleges on my list then. I did research for each of the schools- based on location, class type (lectures or small class discussions), prestige of the school (Ivies over a school like University of Iowa). I looked at college brochures and brought home a book on choosing the right college from by library. By this time, I had 14 schools and then I finally decided to be safe and picked 6-8 of those schools and then 2 safeties.… [cont.]

Scientific research: where is it now?
Q. I'm looking for some of the references to published scientific papers, and I've found that the local copies of the ones I'm specifically looking for are missing from the collections (much to the dismay of the libraries who hold them). I'm looking for W C Levengood and N P Talbott's original published work for "Physiologia Plantarum" 105:615-624 (1999) and Dr. Eltjo Haselhoff's publication of the physics involved with crop circle formation, also in Physiologia Plantarum, 111:123-125 (2001). Electronic text would be fine if it includes the charts, math, and diagrams. I've seen it before, and the publications cannot be checked out from the library, so unless they were merely misplaced they've been stolen. I'm also looking for a work… [cont.]

A. Not a particularly uncommon concern dealing with the details of parapsychology research. Many people over the years, including myself when I first started out search for long-lost research papers & reports that were hidden in the hundreds of thousands of mounds of university and college psychology departments, libraries, and professors offices. When I first inquired about similar reports when I was in college, I was denied access to these reports. It was only later that I learned why.

A. First off, erase the whole concept of "odds of getting in" from your brain. Are you doing your best? Sure looks like it. Have you made a few mistakes? I hope so - you're a human; that's your job. No one who will answer your post has any way of knowing your chances of getting in, because they're not the ones who make the decisions. If they required a cutoff GPA, certain SAT, etc. - believe me, the admissions officers would make that very clear and tell anyone who didn't fit that mold not to bother. It would save them literally thousands of hours. But that's just not how it works.

A. Take as many AP classes as you can handle and get good grades in (and you'll need to do well on the AP exams as well) and ones related to what you want to major in. Harvard and other top schools look for high grades in challenging classes, great test scores, and something that makes you stand out from everyone else with the same thing. They took less than 6% of applicants this year. Whether or not your school weights GPAs is up to them - you'll have to ask.

A. UC admission evaluation is based on a variety of factors. All UCs favor factors such as the rigor of your HS curriculum (number of UC-approved honors/AP/IB/CC courses completed), excellent weighted and unweighted GPA, and demonstrated leadership abilities. You are also compared to your peers, meaning your academic and extracurricular achievements are viewed in context of students in your HS who applied to the UCs this year and 3 years prior. Given the number of factors considered and the complex data involved, it is essentially impossible for anyone to accurately predict your chance. UCLA is very academic achievement oriented, meaning excellent grades and fantastic test scores are essential to be competitive. I would suggest studying and… [cont.]
