i think canada is has a good chance of scienfic exellence in the future due to it's being loaded with oil to sell, i think canada is the perfect place for investors and scientists who want to work, the USA is kind of expensive, i think germany might be the best place though due to the current situation.

Actually for terms of science and scientific research, especially when it comes to human based sciences, the UK is the best in the world for it. It's cheap to do research there, the governments here may have come from different parts of the political spectrum but they're all pro-science and the UK spirit is to find out all there is to know.

Germany and Japan are best for physics based scientific studies and research and stuff but for biology based sciences the UK is already acknowledged as one of, if not the, foremost nation in the world. Newcastle University is well known for that kind of thing.

if the united states provided grants to scientists/improvements, then the USA would be the heaven for science, a catalyst if you will. I think the United States had made many wonderful inventions over the years. some stupid, some epic. I think the earth is in it's infancy in science terms. We still have a tad bit to go before we enter the bronze age of science. If we get the whole earth the learn, then we could be in the gold days within decades.

I think this is among the greatest shows of human kind and our strenght of mind.  Can you think of a time where we thought the earth was flat?

on a side note: lol this reminds me of spore and how you can evolve in that (epic) game, i want the wii version sooo bad :rofl:  i think this is a great wonder of the world it'll be.

actually, some people do still think the Earth is flat.

Land, the site you posted is a parody site. There's some fine print at the bottom of the home page which is pretty funny. :P

However, this one here is authentic. The forums are good for lulz: http://www.theflatearthsociety.org/

Getting back to the original topic. I'm quite surprised no one has considered the very real possibility of opening a portal to hell.

I didn't mean it would take me less than five hours to fly half-way around the world (I wish), I meant in less than five hours from that time I'd be flying half way around the world back to the UK. The flight got massively delayed and I'm only just in Hong Kong right now...damn humanity not having light speed...
