Re: Hence; the time/space
...and not only that, string theory, the closest we are coming to a GUT, (without any experimental evidence, so far) demands a minimum of 10 dimensions...

Hence; the time/space
continuum, hence two-fold; - a continuous nonspatial whole or extent or succession in which no part or portion is distinct or distinguishable from adjacent parts / hence triple-sect; a set of elements such that between any two of them there is a third element / hence forthright; straight or directly forward; in a direct or straightforwardness / hence fifth-dimensional; the generalization of this property to spaces with curvilinear extension, as the surface of a sphere. In our lifetime there will be a collision of understanding between that of spiritual truth and science, particularly in relation to mathematics, disproving Abel's improbability of fifth degree equilaterium and furthering his binomial theorem generalizing elliptic functions. God told me so.

He was among the corporate giants who invented mathematics while formulating the universe.

Of course they're interested! But we shouldn't trust them, because all they want is steal our ideas, and then pretend it was theirs and get a Nobel Prize...

Re: And I bet...........
I agree, Corbin! What I see them dragging behind when I'm at the mall - well, that's why I said, I could have done this research right here, for a lot less...

Re: LOL!
Yeah, well, KaBooM62 (you know what? That's too complicated for me to type, I'll shorten that to Kab!), anyway, it does actually get kind of thin possibly, in a way, 'cause the whole shootin' match is expanding at quite a clip, but we won't go there...

I think I saw something about this on Discovery. Hey I think we all could have done it a lot cheaper....think they would be interested in some of our experiments?

But if space, I mean if gravity, uh one of those. is like a trampoline then with the a bodies's rotation around other bodies doesn't that trampoline get stretched, like awfully thin???

Re: Okay, this is now going to drive me crazy! It started with an "O"...
Krisles, well, were you thinking of Odysseus? Or of Orestes, the son of Agamemnon? Or maybe he wasn't Greek at all, but Irish, and you were thinking of O'Reilly... And I'm not Greek, of course, I'm just using a Greek moniker...

Re: Wait! There was another Greek-named guy on here for awhile....
No, Krisles, you must be confusing me with some other people! For math possibly Pythagoras, for philosophy it could have been a number of guys, possibly Democritos, maybe Xenophon, or else Plato, even Aristotle - we'd need to check to see which one of them was ever a member of Blogit...

More in my mental capacity is the story of the seven-year-old twins who invented Bully-Proof Panties. While wearing a pair of those, it is impossible for the school bully to give one a wedgie. The panty just rips apart when he pulls instead of wedging and can be reconstructed with velcro.

Re: Truman Capote once described a large woman and the wake she
Pat, sounds like a fun story! The only thing of Capote's I ever read is In Cold Blood, but I should probably look at the rest of his work, he was such a good writer.
And of course Einstein's Theories of Relativity (there are two of them, the 'Special' one and the 'General' one) are no longer just 'theories', they actually 'work'. Scientists have known that for a long time - in a sense this research was not carried out to 'confirm' the GTR, but to 'quantify' it, i.e. to express the level of certainty in numbers...

Truman Capote once described a large woman and the wake she
left behind when she walked down a hallway. He read the story at a personal appearance, it was his first published work (at 14). He said the description was funny to all the readers, except for the woman he'd described. He'd used real names. Your Gravity B description and comments just brought this to mind. Interesting theory of Einstein's. :)

Nautikos, I have to admit that relativity boggles my mind
I like the idea though of space-time as a fabric, which supplely bends around the earth, like a ballgown drapes. Hmm, I feel a poem coming on. Thanks for the inspiration.
