Have you ever tried Chilli Ice cream ?

No, but Jalapeno jelly is good.  Mostly I like my peppers with meat rather than sweets though.

Jalapeno Jelly and Chilli Ice Cream....I doubt my taste buds would know if they were coming or going !!!

Me too though John.....I find heat with meat is better than heat with a treat !!! (err...does that make any sense at all ?)

Mmmmm, hot food.  I go to a Mexican restaurant once a week that has salsa that you could strip paint with.  It's astounding.  My lungs and sinuses are completely and totally purged after eating there.  

Back on topic, I happened to read in Scientific American last night that at the singularity containing significant amounts of matter, according to Hawkings, there is infinite temperature, density, and pressure.  It was a really cool article about the mature of time and space, and the feasibility of either one existing before the original singularity.

You are right. I didn't study physics but a friend did before medicine. I would have changed it anyway to "decay" from "fission" (as above) and need mention that the velocity of all photons are the same altho some have more energy.

Well, here's what i think.
Temperature is the average kinetic motion of all the molecules and electrons.
Absolute zero is no motion.  Since it's believed that the speed of light is the limit of matter's speed, i think that "absolute not zero" would be when the average kinetic motion of the molecules were actually at the speed of light.  Anyway, the general theory of relativity says that if a molecule, atom or electron were going that fast, it would have so much mass that it would become a black whole anyway, so the real limit of temperature would be right before that happens, i guess.  Also, there's this other thing called the Planck temperature, which is pretty much the same as my hypothesis, but a little different.  You should look that up.  Anyway, i believe that there is a maximum temperature.
Jeez i better get back to my Spanish homework.  Anyone else here taking Spanish 3 (high school, not collge, spanish 3 college is probably insanium in the cranium) it's really hard.

The EXACT question has been asked before Is there an opposite to Absolute Zero?

Spanish homework? []
Sorry, can't help you out.

Yes, however this holds true as long as a complete, quantum description is not needed.

Absolute zero is no motion.

That's not correct. Here comes the need of a quantum description. At 0 K there still is motion (otherwise, from the Heisenberg indetermination relation, the particles would be spread into all the universe).
