Not, I fear, on internet fora...
20 pages of debate usually add up to 9 pages of thread hijacking, 5 pages of arguing at complete cross purposes due to disagreements about the meaning of fundamental terms, 3 pages of telling people to look it up on google, 2 pages of quotes from badly sourced and quite unreliable wikipedia articles and 1 page of deliberate lies for trolling purposes...

we are onto the 22nd page of nonsense here, just as was intended from the start. If you want a thread with real science, I'd suggest either starting a new one, which I'd read avidly, or, for a better chance of it staying that way, start a new one on a totally different forum - there must be ones which don't go off a a tangent somewhere... bet they don't have many members, though...

That just sums it up, give them 22 pages of pure fact none of which they understand and they still complain, the one thing that resembles anything they actually think they know because it was what they were taught in junior laser space cadet academy and they complain even more.

It gets back to what I said in my very first post y'all are beyond help because basically you're sailing inbreds that can't think sideways like normal folk..

And we haven't even touched on boundary layer separation.

Oh yes, do let's talk about boundary layer separation.  I bet the whole physics of that have changed since I spent three years studying fluid dynamics at uni, and you are just the man to update me.

can we get really scientific and hear GRFs theories on dark energy please. I just dont understand what the scientists are talking about or the journo`s for that matter.
 
For example could it replace wind as a means of propelling a board?

I guess it could. But you'd be subject to Rule 42 protest LOL

Who's going to know? They've only just found it with a $1b telescope on a space station, how's the geezer behind you going to spot that one?
Everything I say is my opinion, honest

 I think you'll find that ultimately dark matter will explain spinnaker lift, tidal effects and why boats are faster on port! Especially if there is a 27% difference.  Geek

I really don't think this is a place for a racist discussion like that.
