Actually, I think he should get "Perpetual n00b" as his title.

VI-ing seems to be reserved for idiots who truly troll in addition to being dumb.

Quite frankly we should title him "Newbie Forever."

So SW is now an example of real world physics?

I want to know what would happen in the REAL WORLD if you fired a high energy beam like that at a planet.
From what I put together, you think that that big gun is a laser. It is not. It fires a massive volley of subatomic particle called lexons that cause fission. It basically just acts as a giant chain-reation machine.

He asked a layman qusetion, so I gave him a layman answer. I don't think he could hadle all of the actual info.

Either that was the worlds worst joke, or you need to be put down for the betterment of the species because we don't want your stupid ass polluting the gene pool.

1) Both online dictionaries I checked show nothing under "lexcon", and the closest thing a google search turns up is "lexicon" which is totally diferent

2) You are a fucking moron

3) Fission is caused by neutron collisions

4) You are a Fucking Moron

5) Fission requires very specific circumstances for it to happen, a planet just sitting there doesn't have them

6) You are a FUCKING MORON

I think he meant "luxons," which IIRC, are all particles and matter that travels STL, basically the opposite of tachyons.

Of course, that doesn't make him any less wrong.

luxon - A particle which travels solely at c. All luxons have a rest mass of exactly zero. Though they are massless, luxons do carry momentum. Photons are the prime example of luxons (the name itself is derived from the Latin word for light).

It is a general term for all particles which travel at c, including but not limited to photons. A blanket statement that fission is caused by luxons is at best a half truth and at worst a prime example of someone who's throwing around terms he doesn't really understand to impress people. I refrain from judgment.

Source: The Laws List. In case anyone's interested in further information:

tachyon - A purely speculative particle, which is presumed to travel faster than light. According to Einstein's equations of special relativity, a particle with an imaginary rest mass and a velocity greater than c would have a real momentum and energy.

tardon - A particle which has a positive real mass and travels at a speed less than c in all inertial frames.

Yes folks. Now lets populate the thread with dozens of more posts just to reinforce the fact Johanson is a moron. I'm sure there are a few cockroaches in the far distance that have not grasped this conclusion yet and can benefit from this predictably repetitive spamming.

(for those of you who did not get the point of this response: Yes, we know he says some stupid things. I don't need to see five or six equally retarded responses pointing this out, particularily if they don't carry any sort of substantial rebuttals. )
