Killtowns Science Background: ?

Well, here's the new thread.

What is your background in science?

High school?

College?

Post-Grad?

Bandersnatch, I can really sympathise where you are going with this.

But I think we know the answer, and attacking Killtown directly, although fun, is in essence an ad hom and I think we should avoid it.

Indeed, Killtown, if you are having any problems with math or getting access to research papers, please PM me and I'll see if I can help/access them for you.

All PMs will be confidential. Copy the link to this post; I promise not to divulge the content of any requests for help or information without your permission.

While I understand that it may look like I'm doing this as an insult to Killtown, due to my insistance, that is not at all my purpose. I would like to know the level of understanding Killtown has of math principles, and physics. I would have liked a quick reply on the other thread, but he seggested I start a new one.

All anyone has to do is read the Flight 93 Plume thread to find this out.

I think it's pointless to ask someone's background unless his resume' is being used as lending authority to his position. Everyone is free to make good solid arguments.

You know what, as a sign of good faith, I'll throw my credentials in the ring:
* 12 credits short of a BS in Computer Science
* Worked in IT/MIS since '97
* Have been a sysadmin/erp admin/dba since '99

Anything beyond that is self taught.

What a fuel hog!

I'm wondering how someone whose avatar implies that the Yew Ess Gummint ruthlessly silences all dissent manages to... well, to spew so much. Isn't the Bureau of Independent Thought Quashing doing their job keeping him quiet? (Or does kt fall under the auspices of the Rumor Regurgitation Squadron? Hmmm.)

So a Rod is 16.5 feet and a hogs head is 84 gallons. So that would mean it goes 660 feet with 84 gallons or 672 gallons per mile. You get worse fule ecconomy that the shuttle crawler as that is only 150 gallons per mile.

What on earth do you drive? THe only reasonable answer I can think of is a walking drag line.

From a button on my Wall:

1.8026 x 1012 Furlongs per Fortnight; Tis' a good idea, and it doth be the law
.

I once calculated that out longhand, so that is about the limit of my math.

Did manage Trig. and Solid Geometry in High School, some scence classes in college (Major was Education, what can I say..)

I'm pretty sure I'm smarter than KT, though...not that that is anything to brag about...

1.8026 x 1012 Furlongs per Fortnight -- how much [edit: area] does that come to when rendered boustrophedontically? Let us assume 3-inch furrows on 4-foot centers.

There are more feet than that. I see Sear's, Clarke's, Indian, and Benoit. They only vary in the 3-7 decimal place though.

So they are close enough that it will be well under 1% difference in this. Also remember how much road conditions and driving technique can effect mileage, a much higher percentage.

Gravy, I was just trying to be humorous (as I'm sure you are aware).

It was just so dag-gone stupid, I had to make a bit of a joke.

I've forgotten a lot of my engineering skillz, but, ya know, miles gotta be converted to feet (or vice versa) before you can get an answer.

I thought it was traditional to convert miles into metres per second and then crash them into planets at high speed.

From Killtown's website:



Remember, folks: flight 93 impacted at 580 mph, 850 feet per second, or, as Huntsman put it so well, that largely hollow shell of thin aluminum and fuel was traveling faster than a bullet from a .45.

I must admit that I have never actually checked his blog. Is this real?
Coz if its real I guess that proves it then.
Can't argue with them forensics.
I hope this means Arkan, Gravy, MacX and everyone else will be apologising to Killtown for ever doubting his credentials.

I just looked at that picture, Gravy....

I think that it should be posted on any site that KT goes to debate at, so that all posters therein can tell what level of expertise they are dealing with.

As for science education, I think KT must have watched 1/2 hour of Nova sometime in his teens..but it didn't take.

What I love about the CTers(ists) is how quickly they'll dismiss 10,000 pages of the NIST report that contain equations and variations on experiements and computer models and, well... you know. Science stuff.

But they'll take one look at pictures like the one Killtown drew and be all "Inside job!!!!"

PS - KT, next time, if you could toss in a few 'happy little trees' in the background, that'd be sweet.

edit: Ok, so KT didn't draw it. Found it significant enough to put on his site as evidence... but he didn't draw it. Disregard 'happy little trees' comment.

To clarify, I don't believe Killtown drew the picture. I think it was that moron "Spooked" whose done those wonderful Killtown-worthy "experiments."

However, Killtown uses this picture as evidence That filght 93 didn't crash in PA. It's on his site on a page devoted to flight 93 photos, maps, and diagrams.

So, let me get this straight: Either the plane is so utterly fragile that any impact will send pieces flying in every direction, rather than letting it the bulk of it remain together long enough to crash into the Pentagon OR it's so absolutely sturdy and rigid it'll burrow into the ground intact.

Yeah...
