A careful experimental measurement of the number of left & right sox has led to a small but significant difference in left & right sock/antisock annihilations. This difference cannot be explained by the Standard Model, and work is proceeding in multiple laboratories to better understand this phenomenon. Since additional data would help sharpen the current estimates of this discrepancy, an open source project known as SETX (Search for Extra Terrestrial soX) enables PC's and dryers from all over the world to participate in this project. If you would like to participate, and your dryer is connected via 10Gbit Ethernet to your PC, please contact www.setx.org. It is essential that your dryer be completely free of lint, as the presence of excess lint masks the phenomenon (see the "No Lint Theorem"). At 04:52 PM 6/30/2010, Hilarie Orman wrote:
On occasion, anti-matter particles, somewhere in the universe, form a very "uncertain" sock. Through quantum tunneling into a home centrifuge (dryer), the anti-sock can merge with a normal sock, annihilating both. The frequency of this well-documented phenomenon is the basis for current estimates of the distribution of anti-matter.
