message: I've never seen any actual source claiming the score was 75-0 instead of 73-0.  If anyone can actually PROVE it with something other than "the refs were wrong" idiocy, then I for one am open for debate. --Chr.K. (talk) 16:08, 9 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: You'd think that 73 would be enough for anybody.  I guess that it should have been 77-0, had the Bears been able to convert all of the extra points. Note how many different players handled this task: this was before free substitution, so they'd let someone who was already in the game kick rather than bringing in a specialist.  And, of course, the officials made them pass for the last two PATs to avoid losing any more footballs. WHPratt (talk) 15:54, 24 April 2009 (UTC)

text: I wonder if this guy isn't confusing this with the Championship Game in 1945 when the Redskins lost because Sammy Baugh hit his own goal post with a forward pass for a safety.  The rule was changed after that to make such as this an incomplete pass.  Maybe this guy figures that it happened here and gave the Bears two more points that were somehow taken away with the rule change. WHPratt (talk) 14:08, 28 April 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Average information

message: Some weeks ago I wrote an article with the title “mean information”. The idea was to point to the fact that the information entropy mathematically is a mean value of the negative logarithms of a set of probabilities, [ p(i), i = 1, 2, …. N], constituting a discrete probability density function. Each log[p(i)] represents the “information” achieved when an event occurred with probability p(i) in accordance with the Shannon theory of information.
I am not sorry for the removal of the article, because I realized that “information” in this sense is equivalent to information content. Some days ago someone changed information content to self-information.
Now, if  – in some text – I would like to point to the mean value property of information entropy, would it be possible to use the concept average information (pointing to information entropy) instead of average information content or average self-information, which seem rather clumsy in my opinion?
In fact, average information has already been used in some places. Why would it not be possible to have it as a separate look up word?--Kjells 08:25, 25 April 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Pacific Plate

message: Is the plate moving in any particular direction overall? Richard001 09:18, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: It is a question of relative to what?  Relative to North America, the Pacific Plate is moving NNW in places (along the panhandle of Alaska and the San Andreas Fault in California) and NW under Alaska and the Aleutians. Relative to the Hot Spot reference frame, it is moving NW (expressed in the apparent SE progression of the Hawaiian Islands chain).  Relative to New Zealand, it is sliding south. Relative to the Philippine Plate and Japan, it is moving west.  Does this help?  Geologyguy 13:55, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I guess I'm asking about it's absolute movement, that is, relative to a fixed point like the south pole. The Indian plate, for example, has moved northward in recent times, at least as I understand. Richard001 03:53, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: But the south pole itself is not really fixed, over geologic time; the axis of rotation precesses.  I think the closest reasonable thing you could make reference to would be the Hot Spot Reference Frame, which is relatively stable compared to the crust.  With respect to that, the Pacific Plate is moving NW over the Hawaiian Hot Spot.  Geologyguy 03:57, 26 April 2007 (UTC)

text: It is relevant that the Pacific Plate changed direction sometime as evidenced in the change of direction in the Hawaiian-Emperor seamount chain.98.228.227.12 (talk) 07:41, 22 January 2011 (UTC)

message: it might just be me not understanding but it seems the article as it's written says the oldest surviving rocks in the plate are around 140M but then also says the rocks from the original microplate still exist in Asia near the convergence zone.

Talk:Morgan (unit)

message: "The centimorgan is equal to a 1% chance..."
I think this is a oversimplification. There are map functions that convert recombination frequency to centimorgan, based on certain assumptions, for example the Haldane or Kosambi map functions. 
I also don't understand the following sentance: "A 50 cM distance means that the genes will reassort when an odd number of crossings happen, which happens 31.8% of the time."
A 50 % recombination frequency means that the markers are not linked, that they are either very far apart on the same chromosome, or on different chromosomes, and therefor are inherited at random. 130.243.248.239 09:27, 25 April 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Chicago Coliseum

message: I thought I had recalled the new Chicago Bulls having to shift a playoff game to the Coliseum when they unexpectedly qualified for postseason play.   Indeed, the Wikipedia article on the International Amphitheater confirms this.
 
"It [the Amphitheater] was also the home of the Chicago Bulls during their inaugural season of 1966-67; they also played only one game in the Chicago Coliseum, a playoff game in their first season, as no other arena was available for a game versus the St. Louis Hawks. Afterwards, the Bulls then moved permanently to Chicago Stadium, not the Coliseum."  
McCormick Place was unusable due to recent fire damage, and so some convention or other had taken over the International Amphitheater. Chicago Stadium was hosting hockey playoffs.  So, this was the last pro basketball there. WHPratt (talk) 19:06, 29 April 2009 (UTC)
