Message-ID: <968@nsc.UUCP> Date: Fri, 25-May-84 16:43:12 EDT Article-I.D.: nsc.968 Posted: Fri May 25 16:43:12 1984 Date-Received: Fri, 1-Jun-84 05:54:38 EDT Organization: National Semiconductor, Sunnyvale Lines: 14 with all this noise about the Big Bang, i got to wondering, what PHYSICAL (confine dogmatic answers to net.{orgions,religion,politics,null,wobigon}) events might have caused the Bang (let us assume there was one) in the first place? if the Big Bang followed a Big Smash, how might the state of the universe just before the Smash alter the events after the Bang? how much time might have occured between the Smash and Bang? (if the question can be asked at all) what other PHYSICAL reason might have cause the Bang? chongo /\%%/\
