    No, i mean lander in nuclear physics the lander symbol (the upside down Y) represents the nuclear decay constant, the symbol for half life is 't1/2'
    lamba (the upside down y) is a letter in the greek alphabet. That's why he was thinking lambda.

    I think it is lambda. My physics book seems to agree too.

    The symbol for half-life is called Lambda, is a letter of the greek alphabet, and, among other things, stands for wavelength.(remember speed of light = lambda times frequency?) c=yf(only y is upside down)
    All generalizations are false

    That would also be the speed of other waves besides light.
    The word rap as it applies to music is the result of a peculiar phonological rule which has stripped the word of its initial voiceless velar stop.

    according to my physics A-Level books and my friend studying for a physics doctorate its lander...
    anyway the spelling is unimportant - the point is they made such a huge mistake!

    Okay, I found a site with a table of Greek letters (including Lambda):

    that reminds me - anyone know what blue shift is like??(add-on for half life?)
    Basilik... don't waste your money. Blue Shift blows. I beat it in like 3 hours... and that was on medium. I was really quite disappointed. I'll stick to opposing force... they need a one player for it tho.

    And to those who have spoken against Mech Warrior... and because of this wonderful language filter... I'll resort to t133...
