Why Dont the Planets Orbit the Solar Equator?

[ZEE]

What do you mean by "understanding stuff"?

Civman2000,

:sigh:

this is very tough for me to admit but...
ive been through some rough stuff these past 3 years. i didnt pick up a book, go to school, or have anyone smarter than me to debate with. Apolyton and the internet wasnt the first thing on my mind at the time, yet... i cant focus on reading very well anymore, esp complicated topics. i really have to concentrate to understand, whereas before my "reading skills" were perfect. the point is if stagnate you will slip.

If albert einstein was on a deserted island for 10 years say, and had no books or people to talk with, just enough to stay alive, would he FORGET all his stuff and become a babbling idiot? im not comparing myself to Einsteins intelligence, or claiming im a babbling idiot ,
yet i HAVE lost a step in my game. im not good at civ anymore either. Stagnation breeds apathy gentlemen. as good as i am now in chat debates, before i was the MASTER.

yet also people told me im more EXPERIENCED now which actually makes me BETTER. i may have lost some of my raw INTELLIGENCE, but that has turned into rugged experience... and determination.

And BTW what is the answer to the thread title?

Some goblin has put the solar equator out of whack.

I could probably track down a good candidate orc too, but the flu says that would be too much work.

I agree, as evidenced by the Washington Times.

So being good at chat debates means saying random facts until people stop chatting with you.
You can keep the master title I guess.

I learned THAT from Creedence Clearwater Revival.

KH is the smartest apple and in a related field, what say you? So far someone said the sun changed its tilt, not the planets. Another theory has something to do with angular momentum but doesn't really explain orbital inclinations out of whack. The comets and asteroids further reinforce the notion of an intruder object or planet currently off in the distance, something large enough to slowly pull the planets off the solar "ecliptic".

I say nebular condensation isn't as simplistic as presented. The nebula is initially disorganized. It is possible for the core stellar "clump" to exhibit distinct characteristics compared to the planetary "clumps."
