So, wait. Maybe I'm a dumbass, but I have a question about black holes.

#1. Black holes have a gravitational pull so powerful that even light cannot escape it's pull.

#2. Gravity is the universal force of attraction acting between all matter.

#3. Matter is that which occupies space and possesses rest mass

Therefore,

#4. Light is matter? And has weight/mass? So... does light weight something? What does light weigh?

How much political propaganda were you forced to consume during your education?
Forcing students to view political propaganda when they should be learning math and science will hinder progress in the long term, so why are children forced to view CNN?

not only weight lifting helps develop your aerobic and anaerobic capaicty, leading to better "brain oxygenation", but being fit, and specially buff, triggers biological biases in humans that make people trust you, take you seriously, pay more attention to what you say

then why academia doesn't have a gym for faculty with free weights?

4th v 6th edition

No.14184824 ViewReplyOriginalReport
is there any real difference between the 4th and 6th editions of the book molecular biology of the cell?
0815344643 (6th)
0815332181 (4th)

I can get a physical copy of the 4th edition for about $10 or the 6th for $100ish and was wondering if there is enough new info to justify the price. the 4th edition is 20 years old but if there isnt a lot of new material in cell i dont see a problem. its not strictly for school as I plan on reading this in free time so im not worried about problems being the same.
