Matter and energy can be past-eternal

[ManofYesterday]

You talk a pretty big game, but so far you haven't demonstrated knowledge of anything, in any field, that you couldn't copy from the back cover of a popular science book.

I didn't say you are a programmer, did I?  But I'm still pretty sure you are either a college kid or a high school kid, because most adults have seen their fields written often enough to know that they aren't capitalized.  That's because course names are capitalized, but job titles are not, unless used with a proper name or implying one: "Computer Scientist Smith started learning how to program a computer today!"

Of course, there is one other case in which people capitalize job fields unnecessarily: self-aggrandizing douches.  So maybe you are, after all, a computer scientist.  But I'm guessing we're about one hissy-fit away from being forced to read that you're a "1337 CoMpUtEr SCIENTIST ?︎□︎◆︎♍︎♒︎♏︎♌︎♋︎♑︎."

It's like reading one of those astrology thingies in the newspaper.

You might be right though.

Anyhow.. is Alex getting that evidence for his credentials or what? It's been like day now. I'm starting to think that he really isn't a physicist. Just kidding. I've thought that from the beginning. Lol.

He doesn't need to, because he's not making an appeal to authority.  That was you, 'member?

First, I didn't say you called me a programmer (there's that poor reading comprehension again!). I said there's a difference between a programmer per se and a Computer Scientist per se. Technically, a person who can program in Javascript is a programmer and that sort of person probably wouldn't have the knowledge to assess whether or not another person is a Computer Scientist.

Regardless, you got me. I'm not a Compu... I mean, computer scientist. You win. I'm actually a middle school student and Mrs. Booker, my 7th grade home room teacher, just finished teaching us QBasic, and I allowed this new found knowledge to go straight to my head.

But can Alex please provide some evidence showing that he's a physicist? Pretty please? I'm really starting to think he's a hack.
