Space Strategy ? and Halloween
Because our almighty leader Firelance is currently away, I could post just about anything interesting regardless if they are in fact, related to space warfare.
Apparently someone was bored enough to post a proof that vampires can’t exist. That’s right, we now have a mathematical refutation to the existence of vampires, although anyone with a whiff of common sense would not require such a refutation:

Efthimiou’s debunking logic: On Jan 1, 1600, the human population was 536,870,911. If the first vampire came into existence that day and bit one person a month, there would have been two vampires by Feb. 1, 1600. A month later there would have been four, and so on. In just two-and-a-half years the original human population would all have become vampires with nobody left to feed on.
So next time you see a vampire, hold out a math book and shout:
“The power of Science compels you!”

While I don’t believe in vampires, that piece of “proof” uses a model where vampirism spreads with 100% certainty whenever bloodsucking occurs. Assuming anything is bad science, and I’m rather a fan of the Black Blood Brothers’ vampire model, which is sustainable.
And just why are we discussing vampirism at the site? I mean, aside from me being a bit of a bloodsucker when it comes to cash?

I hate traditions and customs (the latter doubly so, as they take 25% VAT and $12 on incoming parcels) a great deal, and would be very happy if they ceased to exist alltogether.
Silly American crap.
