I'm definitely going to research that... after my head stops it's useless rebellion. *to my head* It's not working, you know! I love this computer! And I love my scifi programs on TV! You will never escape LCD screens, so don't bother!
yeah. And you know what I found out today, which I hadn't noticed while reading the book (TLC, which actually IS relevant, seeing as this is the AF forum - wow. I'm on topic), which is on her wikipedia profile? Minerva wears glasses. I DID NOT KNOW THAT. Well, I suppose lack of attention is bound to occur when you read a book in half a day – which I never normally do.
*cries in frustration* MY HEAD HURTS!

I think I know why stars burn in a vacuum! They are made up of gas, ja? Oxygen is a gas. Oxygen is necessary for burning. It's heat + oxygen + fuel Perhaps the star feeds on its own oxygen supply and I know it contains a lot of hydrogen, whcih would be a fuel... which would explain why they die... but I will have to check that as I'm not entirely sure it's correct.
I thought of it the other day while I was waiting for my mum to come in so we could watch a DVD. I find that repeatedly asking myself a question, rephrasing it each time, often allows me to come up with something.
I've still got to check that, though...

I've done a bit of light research and have come up with this: "Stars on the main sequence burn by fusing hydrogen into helium." - How Stuff Works.com. Well, I got a bit of it right. Hydrogen is the fuel. I don't think there's oxygen involved and I can't be bothered to read on to hear about the heat (formation) of the stupid things. I'm tired and uninspired.

Yeah, but it is vaguely on-topic. Artemis could answer the question. So meh. (Well, I suppose so could any Astrophysicist on the planet... but that's irrelevant).

Yes, very irrelevant. I'm so glad you've finally realised that! </sarcasm>

lol. Irrelevant. I like that word. I learned it from watching Star Trek. From Seven of Nine. She's always saying 'Relevant!' 'Irrelevant!' 'Efficient!' 'Inefficient!'. So I learned a lot from it. See, nobody can say my watching Science Fiction instead of doing my homework is an inefficient use of my time. If I didn't watch sci-fi, I couldn't have put that last sentence together!

Well that was off topic. Sorry.

LOL! You're hilarious! LOL!
I'm actually trying to stay away from fanfiction. It warps my portrayal of characters beyond repair! So I refuse to read it anymore. Well, the damage is done with AF. There are a few fanfics I keep up with. But I can't be bothered most of the time and I won't read any from other fandoms since I don't want to wreck it. Particularly shippy fanfics because they seriously screw with your head! You end up seeing things between characters in canon that aren't there! GAK! But this is all just with me. Most other people have no problems.

Yeah... I sometimes find that even listening to a conversation of people saying 'yeah, that would be a good ship' can mess with your head.
