- Go to And from the World of Science: Bob and Alice are at it again...
You are quite right suggesting to Bob and Alice just where they should entangle their bits. Funny as always and, by the way, I'm a great fan of T.S. Eliott too. Didn't know about the whooping cushions. You live and learn.

I agree with
Your comment Nauty, but I think I caught one very important point here... Alice, hold on to your bits! Sounds like sound advice.

I am not touching this one with a ten pole for fear of entangling myself. lol Shelly

Just goes to show that Hawking has more brain bits in his (non-functioning) big toe than I have my own head... as for Bob and Alice, won't their bits get bitter after so long?

Hey, that's old sicence-fiction: you send people through black holes and recover them on the other side of the galaxy: fast easy transportation without polution?. In this case, you would only need to add 10% of mater (maybe pre-sample DNA?) to get the person, or a very good copy, back.LOL Might take us a few more years before achieving this technological wonder, but, it's already all there in the books!LOL

Really Naut, if you are going to write a steamy sexually graphic scene
please use language that we comic book readers can cope with. Or does this mean that all those blogs that have just disappeared on me before I could hit post are going to come belching out of my computer one day!

Wow!
And wow again and again. I am assuming these are young people. Why don't you teach them a few things about how to naturally 'non-scientifically' get their things together. Perhaps you should know them fairly well but somebody needs to help these poor jokers. This for sure could end civilization and those not civilized as well.

Dear Nautikos
What does this say?! Maybe I could understand it in haiku form? But, I couldn't even focus on the words in the sentences long enough to try to make meaning out of them.....I mean, isn't there a way to say it so the more right-brained of us can grasp what this article told you that was so exciting?! I get that stuff is not lost in black holes....I mean, of course not, nothing is ever lost.....but after that....well, maybe after a drink or two....or three, or more.....but....all that said.....I do, of course, still always love "hearing" you speak science gibberish

Hmmmmm I think after reading this I am about to prove entropy exists by self destructing
...but I do get the last sentence which makes me happy because even though I might not be the sharpest tool in the shed I can still cut it :-) Great post Naut... you made us think more in a few minutes than most of us have probably thought since college. xoxo

Naut I have no idea what you're talking about unless it's got something
to do with quantum physics. Or is it that the universe (black holes) is breathing, pulling in and blowing out? Your blog sounds a bit like that song "everything old is new again," and it's kind of fun to think of Bob & Alice as Romeo and Juliet with a happy ending next time. I've watched the science channel a time or two, they say the big new research is looking at dark matter and what it means. Do you know what this stuff means? :)pat

Nautikos, If you make that Bob and Betty instead of Bob and Alice, you have there our thirty-year marriage in a cryovac pack.
