Title is supposed to be Michio Kaku came to my school today*
He talked to us about string theory, time travel, and all that good stuff. The best part? He had Chrome downloaded on his laptop, but he was using IE.

Lucky for you to have Kaku lecture at your school. I can listen to him for days. Practically anything he speaks about, he makes it sound interesting. As well as Neil degrasse Tyson. That guy is like a comedian astrophysicist.

I thought matter was neither created nor destroyed?

Assuming you successfully time traveled, new matter must come to take your place, right?

Correct me if I'm wrong. I'm not expert. xD

[quote=MizuiChan]I'd love to hear what he discussed; I always assumed that time travel was impossible because that would violate the conservation of mass, as well as other temporal-related restrictions. Does he have a website or blog or something like that?[/quote]

According to him, time travel doesn't break the laws of physics.

Quite simply, internet explorer pales in comparison to other browsers. Perhaps the man's google chrome was full of his personal links that he didn't want people to see during his presentation, while ie is safe.

Stuyvesant High School.
@xFaceIess IE is not legally a web browser.
Think of browsers as the 300 spartans.
Firefox,Chrome, ect. as the Spartans.
IE is the hunchback who betrays them.
