i'm doing a bit of early evening channel surfing and came across a show about science. i'm a science geek and this one was talking about black holes. Ooh score! Wait.. no… negative score.
They're talking about micro-black holes in the earth being the reason that ships disappear in the Bermuda Triangle. No, really.
Nevermind the fact that blackholes, (much like Mr. Creosote) don't know when to say "when".
After all, you don't become a light and information consuming funnel of destruction by skipping meals that happen to be within a few AU of you.
Oh, good, they're not only suggesting that deep within the core of the earth is a here-to-fore undiscovered, powerful source of X and Gamma radiation, but the theorized and never discovered whitehole and wormhole. Well, if you're going for the gusto, best to wrap in as many theories as possible.
Of course, the fact that our planet is effectively part of a binary system with a nice, liquid, high iron core with a long history of polar shift might also cause interesting localized shifts in electro-magnetics, nah, too easy.
Seriously. Did any of these folks even make it past the table of contents of the science books TV guide listing for the science shows they based their research on?
Honestly, one of my biggest complaints was that they were tying the Bermuda Triangle to the Dragon's Triangle via wormhole.
Meaning that whatever you flush down in that Taco Bell, winds up off the shore of Japan.
While that may explain Japan retaliating by sending us Pokemon and Naruto, I'd prefer to think that wasn't the reason.
