Hi Staff/Admin
Can we have such a subforum where we can discuss latest scientific and technological discoveries, or just anything science related like physics, math, etc?

Would support the suggestion, but think it highly unlikely it'll interest enough members to get a good enough post 'rate'. Though it'll be fun debunking stuff like scalar energy, pi water, etc. etc... if such a forum existed.

yeah, science and technology is intertwined. all our grand inventions today would never had existed if it wasnt for the scientific discoveries, but great inventions today will someday lead to even greater technologies!

A simple law like "for every force there is an equal and opposite reaction" lead us to cars, roads, and u know our computers today will lead us to things like the ones we see in Star Trek. An ideal utopia of technological grandeur far exceeding what our minds now are even capable of imagining!

Yes!!! A forum where we can discuss about Laws and Theorems and equations, bits and 1 ands 0's, or maybe give our understanding of what happen in the last episode of Mythbuster.
Something to that effect.
Nothing is more noble than the pursuit of knowledge and much more nobler than that is to enrich the minds of our current generation with science and technology.

from great discussions come great minds!!!!


Added on June 11, 2009, 9:39 pmThe sad thing especially these days is that the younger generation just learn about covalent bonds and impulse force just for the sake of grades mostly, without the passion and the love of the subject matter.
And even worse, is the older generation who is content with what he/she knows, unknown to him that knowledge is a never ending quest, especially science.

Oh well, in retrospect, goldfries is right.. i suppose we can downsize it to something more on the micro level.
Call it Life Sciences and Physics subforum.
More on chemistry, physics theories, electronics, and other life sciences.

Then it is up to forummers like you to educate them. Sure fantasies may not be grounded into reality but imagination is the mother of inventions.
A lot of them are kids, or people in working field like me who hasnt touched these subjects for a looong time already. A lot of times the discussion actually make me research for materials online to actually dwelve into the subject matter with better understanding.
And furthermore, this subforum is still at its infancy and no proper moderator has been assigned to it yet.
With proper knowledgable moderators, better and more clear guidelines can be set.

So,if you think threads like Dihydrogen Monoxide worth discussing while it's just a hoax from the beginning or the teleport thread filled with kopitiam style chatting? I havent read the whole subforum but that my impression on it.

Theoretical physics isnt my field,btw.I dont think people need a degree in physics,maths,chemistry etc to post there.Just a bit serious and logical will do,IMO.The problem with this subforum is there is almost no serious discussion,except a few threads.Other than that,it's just fantasy or nonsense.

I do think that section needs a regular mod there to lock those pointless thread.

Someone like you may be suitable to be a moderator there.

Anyway I would like to suggest a QnA for SPM/STPM/A-levels students to post interesthing questions from the science subjects they take.
