Pluto and Charon are mutually tidally locked, meaning they always show the same face to each other. So the tidal forces would be very constant.

20 seems like too many....

I had the same thought, but then what about people who have more than one house? Where would you bring the mail for a homeless person? Do they even get a number? What about mailing to a business vs. a person at that business?

I used MUMPS at my last job, I'd say antiquated is the perfect word for it.

"In one study from 2008, rats forced to run wound up with significantly more new brain cells after eight weeks than those who ran when they chose, even though the latter animals ran faster. "

This earlier study's conclusion that the forced aspect was more important than pushing the exerciser outside of their comfort zone. It seems like they should experiment with 45rpm forced exercise to see if that has the same effect. Though, it may have been just the article making that logical jump.

I'm amused that CMU listed two pronunciations but neither was that native Pittsburgh pronunciation, which is the same as 'fur' on a dog.

Yes, I have Quick Find set up to turn on as soon as I start typing though. The input isn't being captured by a normal textbox so it's triggered.

My anecdotal evidence says that the teacher makes much more of a difference than even the students. In my high school, every single kid that took AP Calculus got a 4 or 5 because the teacher was great, and barely anyone passed the chemistry exam. In a competing high school not far away it was exactly reversed: there was an effective chemistry teacher and every kid got a 4 or 5, but somehow they struggled in calculus.

Except it costs money, so that would be a big deterrent.

Just click outside the lightbox, this works 90% of the time.
