WTF, at 4:44 she says bananas produce 15 positrons everyday. Since these particles will either hit normal particles in the banana or the air, why don't bananas explode? I mean, 1 gram of antimatter contacting matter releases energy similar to one or more atomic bombs, so I would think a few positron-electron annihilations would be enough to at least explode one banana. In the words of Magneto, "Are you sure you saw what you saw?" Don't get me wrong, I have faith in science, I'm just wondering.

This is a very bad presentation and I've seen quite a lot of science TED talks.

"[Atoms] are so small we can't actually measure their size." WRONG.

"six quarks , six leptons" And W and Z bosons, and PHOTONS (pretty important), and gluons, oh and the FUCKING HIGGS BOSON. I am beginning to suspect Shears has no idea what the fuck she is talking about.

0:51 "we dont have a theory that predicts it" anti-matter was predicted in 1928 by Paul Dirac.

They should bring in IQ tests or some kind of entrance examination for participating in the comments sections. Too many idiots spouting negative kneejerk reactions - in ALL the Ted talks. These talks always restore my faith in humanity... Then the comments below knock it right down again. Too many ignorant fools spouting their bile, every single time. If you find these talks so threatening then don't fucking watch them. Fuckheads.

I don't know how this fits in with what, who or where? I just wish I had been there; preferably on stage as a spiritual double perhaps. I had to put up instead with watching on my computer by courtesy of Youtube. Thanks to all. It was wonderfull.
