Mathematical Challenge !

I'm not 100% sure of your methodology but you just might be onto something . I'd hazard a guess but I don't think he used a cement mixer and a lorry load of gravel but he did use mathematics for predictions,
http://www.news.com.au/technology/s...s/news-story/6de2e69055a4e7b9f465edff1e550583 Sounds a bit sci-fyish with shades of Hari Sheldon's physcohistory but perhaps between his calculator and your shovel you could solve the world's problems before they get any more serious.

Many times I have gazed into a Belle 150 mixer & wondered if this phenomena will ever be solved.

If you can work out the math then you have worked out how order can & does exist within chaos. This not only sorts out weather prediction, which in itself is order within chaos, but it also solves very many other problems.

If the bigger lumps end up on top (which is top in a revolving drum?) is it not just that the smaller lumps can fall through the spaces between the bigger lumps easier than the bigger lumps can fall through the spaces between the smaller lumps?

Please find a responsible adult to supervise your internet access.

There are billion's of things on t'internets that may appeal to you much more than this.

Could I not say likewise and be equally unjustified?


What is wrong with my proposal?

How can it be otherwise?

We know that time travel will never happen because even if they have strict rules on not revealing you are a time traveller, one day in the infinite future some arsehole will go all the way back into the past & reveal that time travelling exists.

They didn't, so it doesn't & never will.

Sorry Dorky, poor reasoning. With government cover ups being what they are, they could well have inadvertently revealed themselves, and the cover up won't come out for another 100 years when time travel will have been discovered. And what to say that Adam and eve weren't time travellers, and created a circular argument. Furthermore, they may not yet have come back this far, or went back to a time where the record of them arriving was lost. The origins of "magic" are more than likely things that time travellers have done, and become mythology. And whose to say that they've only discovered how to go into the future, and that's why we haven't heard about it yet.

Just because you personally don't have proof of it, doesn't mean that it won't be invented.

However, if images are made of reflected light rays off the objects, what happened exactly when Universe was created, we can easily witness that even now, it is within our capability, however what we need is to capture those rays that first emanated from the moment big bang occurred, this means Dorky and Doggit I will assign both of you to work on a machine that can enable a video camera to travel at say 1,000,000 times the speed of light, so we can then place this camera in a space capsule and send it off, it may take good few years travelling at Million times the speed of light and catch up the first light ray that emerged, and beacon it back to earth, so we could see in real time how the universe unfolded from a pin point, and we could also then prove if Adam and Eve ever put their foot on earth ready made, or were they evolved from fishes. You have Two Million Dollars from Donald Trump Scientific Exploration fund, and 6 months to complete the first prototype. If you succeed, you will both share a Nobel Prize.Please provide your full bank details and address and passwords and you home telephone number so that I can arrange for payment to made via an Official Nigerian Government Trusted bank. Unfortunately because of the new policies of Donald Trump, this money cannot be paid directly and so must come via his agents working for him in Nigeria. But please remember, you must not let anyone know that and my cut in this deal is only 2%. So I am not doing it for profit but just covers expensive long distance calls to Nigeria and White House.

It wouldn't work, but I'll admit it's an interesting concept. Now who was the guy who postulated that the earth was seeded by aliens, Eric Von Daniken I think; ask them, and we wouldn't need to bother with the faster than light video recorder. I expect they'll also know about the time machine idea as well.

 

[Mikefromlondon]

There is a strong possibility that reflected light from a distance inhabited planet my start reaching us in a few years from now, and we better keep our telescopes ready and focused, coupled with camera, so the minute the images start arriving at the speed of light, hopefully not too muted, they will start unfolding in front of our camera, we could see how life unfolded on that distant planet.

If time travel was discovered in my lifetime . . . I personally would go back & tell them that time travel exists.

If they then covered that up, I would go back again & make nonsense of their cover up.

If time travel can ever exist, one day in the future someone will do this.

They didn't, so it doesn't . . . so there.

Naw, you'd be implanted with a neuro transmitter block that stopped you telling anyone.

Naw, you'd be implanted with a neuro transmitter block that stopped you telling anyone.

So, in your reality there is a possibility that time travellers are amongst us, yet they are blocked from telling us?

I've met a few folk who could possibly fit in that category

I like to think that all things are possible, but we just haven't found out how to achieve them yet. Eddison conducted 6000 experiments till he found out how to make a light bulb work, yet never gave up on the dream.

I am indeed onto summat my darling.

When I'm not gazing into the Belle 150's drum I can usually be found in the sites snap cabin . . . Where all of the world's problems can & are solved on a daily basis.

In fact we are running out of problems to solve & may have to resort to talking ****** . . . like EFL !

As for your Hari Sheldon . . . It's obviously the work of an imbecile, or the invention of a journalist looking to fill the minds of its demographic with Tosh.

The popular board game 'Monopoly' was invented by an economist to show how the world will eventually implode. There can only be one winner & when everyone else is bankrupt . . . what exactly have they won?

If you are a thinking person, then you would already have lost this sense of hero worshipping the false idol of Edison & would have become almost an authority on the life & times of Tesla.

Please, if you wish to worship the false idol, at least show him the dignity of spilling his noom riyt.

Something quite brilliant

I note you haven't disproved my proposal. I shall draw my own conclusion.

I used to think your user name was an amusing play on words; I now realise it is a true description.

You seem to be talking about granular convection. This is basically where smaller particles, when shaken or mixed, become almost fluid in motion, allowing them to sink to the bottom, whilst the larger particles settle on the top. The combined density of those smaller particles is what holds the larger particles on top.

That's along the lines of what Mr 'Loopy' Lewis taught us in Physics, anyway!
