It's a piece of piss to be cowiz, but it's not cowiz to be a piece of piss. Or something like that.

Re: Evolution for fundamentalists
OK, here's your anus, the tilted planet. The two poles are dark and light for a long time. The other two extremes of the orbit there are regular days.

Okay, that's one case. The "axis pointed at the Sun" is another, right? In that one the, say, Southern Hemisphere, is always pointed at the Sun, and the Northern Hemisphere is always pointed away. I wonder if that kind of planet could hold an atmosphere.

Re: Evolution for fundamentalists
Well, no problem there. It does not have an atmosphere like ours, and it is too cold:
Too cold for life.
Plus methane.Uranus's atmosphere, while similar to Jupiter and Saturn's in its primary composition of hydrogen and helium, contains more "ices" such as water, ammonia and methane, along with traces of hydrocarbons.[12] It is the coldest planetary atmosphere in the Solar System, with a minimum temperature of 49 K (−224 °C).
Too cold for life.

Re: Evolution for fundamentalists
I'm thinking that a planet with the South Pole always facing the Sun would get very hot on that side, and rather cold on the other. Would there be enough mixing of atmosphere?Tero wrote:Some silicon dioxide on the surface?

Re: Evolution for fundamentalists
Maybe not. You would get huge glaciers in one pole in any case.

Re: Evolution for fundamentalists
The pole with land on it would still collect ice, if the other pole has no land. Just like today.

No arguing that point. Arguing a different one. But I won't say what that point is, that would just spoil things.Tero wrote:The pole with land on it would still collect ice, if the other pole has no land. Just like today.

I can't be bothered to read up on it, so I'll just go from a not very reliable memory.pawiz wrote: Apes don't choke?
But as far as I remember, no, apes don't choke.
We humans have what's called a descended larynx, which apes don't have. The larynx is the end of the wind pipe.
It evolved so that we can talk better. It sits right alongside the hole that our food goes down, ( can't remember the name ) so we choke pretty easily.
The larynx of an ape is higher up, so they are very unlikely to choke.
That's why humans often choke on their own vomit if they become unconscious, but apes virtually never do. So if you come across an unconscious chimp, no need to check the airway.
Interestingly, newborn babies have the ape arrangement, but the larynx gradually descends as the baby develops. ( Again, not checked, it's just how I remember it ).
While there is a market for shit, there will be assholes to supply it.
