Yes if you dont fold it evenly in half all 8 times. But if it is evenly in half all 8 times it can be done with help or by machine. single person by hand could do it if the paper is wet or creased extensively for ever fold.

Blood, whether it be in your veins, arteries or capillaries (meaning if they've mixed with oxygen yet or not) it is always red. Thats why they call them "red blood cells." Even when theyre still inside the body they are still red. The only blood cells that arent red are white blood cells (the name kinda gives it away) but there are much less of those in the blood than Red Blood cells.
hope thats all understandable, i think i got all my shit right.

I don't know for sure as I said Fedegita.That was something that this guy told me once in science class, he always got high marks on tests so I figured he was right.
Whatever the truth is, do you have any facts to back up the whole "Red blood Cells" theory if you don't mind me asking.Even if your blood is red which I'm not doubting or anything you veins are still a blueish color, not red if you look at them in the light.

Umm it's not a theory man. It's, like, proven fact. We're not talking about evolution or anything here, blood is a tangeable thing, existing in soooo many different living things, that scientists have been studying scientifically for hundreds of years.
To be more precise its the haemoglobin in the blood that makes it red, whether there is oxygen attached to it or not. Haemoglobin becomes a part of the blood right from when the cells are created.
Oh, and just because veins are blue doesnt have anything to do with the blood itself being blue. Thats retarded. Thats like saying a yellow balloon must have yellow air in it, just because the balloon itself is yellow. Veins are blue because they are made of a low-flexible blue material (because they dont have to carry oxygenated blood around the body). On the other hand, arteries are red because they have a thicker, more muscular outer wall to push oxygenated blood around the body.
You want proof to back it up? Go look around the net cos im not rewriting a whole chapter of my bio text book for you. And even though your friend may be smart, he talks crap when it comes to think he really knows nothing about. Punch him in the back of the head for me.

It is a common misconception. In alot of science books unoxiginated blood is displayed as blue. Its to show a contrast between blood tht is oxygenated and blood that is not, although in reality the only difference is that blood that isn't oxygenated is a darker red.

ok, ok man you sound a bit defensive there man lol.It's all good man.BTW, he was a friend back in high school, everyone asked him for help at times.I guess he was wrong lol.I don't hang with him or anything.He was a bit conceited though now that I remember.

Like Gruby said.It was just a little misunderstanding.But thanks for the explanation.grin


M_C, lol yeah man thanks for answering.True, true Spiderman=fake while Spiders are REAL.

You have to admit though, if Stan lee wanted to be MORE REALISTIC, then he messed up but who cares lol.Spiderman is cool.Definitely one of Marvels best characters ever.

Yes, but that's the most amount of times you can fold a pieceof paper, no matter how big the piece of paper is.

How big does a hill have to be to be considered a mountain???

I believe the criteria for a mountain is that it is considered over 1'000 - 2'000 ft, though the criteria varies depending on the authorities responsible for it.

Wikipedia states that...

In the United States, a mountain is 1,000 feet or more in height from base to summit. A hill is 500 to 999 feet. A discernible hill that is less than 500 feet high is a knoll. A series of knolls constitutes a rolling plain. A plain is generally considered flat if it has no significant prominences (e.g., "hills" less than 20 feet high, though the range of height varies for a plain to be considered flat).[citation needed]

In the United Kingdom the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs defines mountain as all land over 600 m. This is a close metric equivalent of 2000ft (which is 609.6 metres)

Though this might be a stretch I think it's possible.... In a powerful F4 or F5 tornado, a piece of straw can go through a brick wall. Actual fact.

If people knew the place where they were, then they'd be somewhere. tongue Every place may have a name, but until people know what the name is, then the people give their location the generic name "no-where".

Well one thing I could think of was biological computers. Cells could be engineered to process information encoded in the form of proteins. I had a brief inspiration to write a short story using that concept, but my creative writing teacher swiftly and mercilessly crushed it. But working biocomputers have been documented. I think some researchers created a DNA adding machine based on PCR (polymerase chain reaction).

I didn't answer your question - what is the biggest advantage...hmmm... I think speed is one. Considering that one of the supposed features of nanobots is that they are self-replicating, the number of nanobots assigned to a task should rise geometrically, and with that the speed at which the said task is performed should rise at the same rate. Hypothetically speaking, of course.

Thanks bro.. That's a point I didn't consider..... I was thinking flexibility, but I like your theory. One more question if you don't mind.... What field or profession stands to gain the most from it in your opinion? And please use your imagination.... Myself, I think from a military profession, we stand to gain miniature spies, and miniature assassins. A high flying jet could drop an invisible load of bots trained for war over an enemy hot spot. : Gather intel, seek out known enemies, and enter the blood stream, devour the heart or mind.... Terrorist watch out!! Death may come in your sleep.... wink Anyway, what's your take?

I would go with what you said - flexibility - and say manufacturing in general. Considering that everything is made out of the same material (atoms) and that these nanobots are supposedly small enough that atoms will literally be their working raw material, they can be programmed to create anything from a brass tack to a hot dog bun. Kinda makes you think of the "replicators" from Star Trek: The Next Generation, doesn't it?

Just to cover my ass I would also say the medical field would benefit greatly from nanotechnology. They could work as "programmable enzymes" that could alter gene transcription and expression and do other stuff that I can't think of right now tongue
