Dude, I am a physicist…do you really think I am going to be convinced that because one scientist “observed” dark matter that they can measure all dark matter in existence with any reliability?
The amount of “real” matter in existence cannot even be measured and it can actually be observed by traditional methods…
Sheesh, amateur scientists talking about science always makes for good entertainment.[/quote]
“We know the age of the universe within probably 2 per cent accuracy. It’s 13.7 billon years. It really is. It’s impressive. We know the total matter content of the universe - it’s 4 per cent. That’s the stuff we recognize as matter, basically protons. The rest is something we don’t understand.”
– Dr. Norman Murray, Director of Canadian Institute of Theoretical Astrophysics.
Dude, it’s 4 per cent. That’s 400 per dollar.[/quote]
You are taking this out of context. There is no real way to measure all the matter or anti-matter in existence with any reliability. And since you are not trained as a scientist you will just have to take what these theoreticians say at face value.[/quote]
Well that is true, I can do little more that regurgitate what I have learned. I do not have the skill set to test and verify on my own.

I agree. One of the greatest mysteries of our universe and a question I have pondered since I was in grade school! Dammit why won’t they work on something really important…

That’s an easy one, just shut one of your kids in one and have them tell you what happens.
