Lambda denotes decay, wavelength, eigenvalues, and a ♥♥♥♥-ton of other things.

I really doubt he is Shiva. Also, IIRC Shiva is everything. He destroys, he creates, he is the universe, etc.

That's Vishnu, actually.

In all honesty, I don't think Valve, being the smart people they are, would believe in religion.

Oh yes. I went there.

Sasso · 11-07-2009, 12:21 AM

It's not believing in anything, it's just using a concept taken from a particular religion. Valve isn't a single celled organism.

EDJE · 11-07-2009, 12:37 AM

Yeah, but I just wanted to put that out there while I had the chance.

I'm very shallow-minded, just so everyone knows.

Hmmm, like the LHC????

heh, yeah. Although the G-Man might view an operable LH collider to be more valuable for decay than the one we have which rots only as fast as bird crap is capable of corroding it.

oh, and consider the crowbar which is a tool designed to take things apart, not put things together.

Bakka-Man · 11-08-2009, 09:45 AM

ahh, Shiva, the destroyer and transformer of all living and non-living things. i remember her.

also:

joeylawn, why must you conCERN youself over us? we are capable of many wondrous things beyond your imagining, and our creators seem to think we are capable of handling the power that which they have given us. we wish not to destroy our ceators, only please them

I get it now... Took me both posts to figure it out (unless there are more?

) You just wanted to use the name/term CERN.

Yet, we have the Vortessence.

Right, when you start talking about what the future holds for life forms, even in terms of science, it starts sounding religious. Unavoidable consequence of having a unified goal.

Wha-

This is new!
