Haven't had to use Webster's in awhile...thanks Charlotte...lol.

Thanks,

Mark A. Matte

P.S...Webster says 'apocryphal' instead of 'apochryphal '...but either way I 
agree with you Charlotte

>HELL EXPLAINED BY CHEMISTRY STUDENT

>The following is an actual question given on a Washington State
>University chemistry mid-term.
>The answer by one student was so "profound" that the professor shared it
>with colleagues, via the Internet, which is, of course, why we now have
>the pleasure of enjoying it as well :

>Bonus Question: Is Hell exothermic (gives off heat) or endothermic
>(absorbs heat)?
>
>Most of the students wrote proofs of their beliefs using Boyle's Law
>(gas cools when it expands and heats when it is compressed) or some
>variant .
>
>One student, however, wrote the following:
>
>First, we need to know how the mass of Hell is changing in time. So we
>need to know the rate at which souls are moving into Hell and the rate
>at which they are leaving. I think that we can safely assume that once a
>soul gets to Hell, it will not leave. Therefore, no souls are leaving.
>As for how many souls are entering Hell, let's look at the different
>religions that exist in the world today. Most of these religions state
>that if you are not a member of their religion, you will go to Hell.
>Since there is more than one of these religions and since people do not
>belong to more than one religion, we can project that all souls go to
>Hell. With birth and death rates as they are, we can expect the number
>of souls in Hell to increase exponentially.
>Now, we look at the Rate of change of the volume in Hell because Boyle's
>Law states that in order for the temperature and pressure in Hell to
>stay the same, the volume of Hell has to expand proportionately as souls
>are added.
>
>This gives two possibilities:
>
>1. If Hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at which souls
>enter Hell, then the temperature and pressure in Hell will increase
>until all Hell breaks loose.
>
>2. If Hell is expanding at a rate faster than the increase of souls in
>Hell, then the temperature and pressure will drop until Hell freezes
>over.

>If we accept the postulate given to me by Teresa during my Freshman year

>into account the fact that I slept with her last night, then number two
>must be true, AND thus I am sure that Hell is exothermic and has already
>frozen over. The corollary of this theory is that since Hell has frozen
>over, it follows that it is not accepting any more souls and is
>therefore, extinct......leaving only Heaven, thereby proving the
>existence of a divine being which explains why, last night, Teresa kept
