    Foolproof: Simple question here. Your name is Foolproof... and your signature states "Nothing is foolproof". Does that mean You = Nothing? Or the art of being foolproof means nothing? How does that work?


    The fool as an archetype is very interesting to me.  In tarot the fool's card is #0.  It's value is zero.  It doesn't just represent nothing, it represents an understanding of nothingness.  Or at least the knowledge that nothingness exists before and after everything else.   The fool or joker is a wild card with no value in some games and all values in others.  They are both and not either, in all things and in no things also.

    My sig means nothing is proof against fools, and my screen name means I am proof of fools.  Thus fools exist and nothing can stop them.  Hopefully this clears things up. :)

    Ideally both of your interpretations are correct also.

    (I'm confused too.)
    Foolproof's fool proof.
    Born on April's First. Dyslexic. Never grew any wisdom teeth. (much more) 

    Fool comes from the Latin for bellows or windbag.  So you decide.

      When the first metalworkers made their forges the hearth or fire pit was the spiritual center of the home.  The industrial hearth so much more.  The bellows were the representative of the air(forge=fire,fuel=earth), or the invisible mate of the fire's fuel .  Thus the association with vacuum or nothingness/emptiness.

      The metal worker's god became the god of technology.  The smith of the gods.  The smith was almost always imperfectly made by the fates, like Vulcan.  Many of the secrets of metalwork are encoded into the legends and myths about the tech gods.  Metal's flaws are sometimes invisible but can be discerned by the wise. 
    This is where the idea of the court jester and the fool probably became intertwined with the image of the dwarf or wise ass.  A fool was magnet for bad luck so kings liked to have one near as a kind of karmatic scape-goat or mascot.

     The symbol of zero.  I think al cyph was the first recorded word for it.   That became the word for the number zero and the word cypher for codes.   This may be where the fools archetype gained attributes of secrecy or inside knowledge.  Or at least symbolic existence.

     When the calendars were imprecise the new years celebration was vague and could last until the stars synchronized with the earthbound records.  This time between times was a sacred party time.  Fools had the role of baby new-year/old man time to serve as a lucky charm until the new year showed up.

       Ending and Beginning.  Both and neither.  Thesis, antithesis, synthesis, and parenthesis.  When the new year's marker date got moved the fools got left behind. 



    Nothing is foolproof

    sooooooo....

    on to a diffferent subject

    "And here we go now, Jim, our first competitor Michael Laconto has just tried to hurdle over the fires surrounding the convention centre. And he's caught fire, luckily John Tatta is on hand with a fire extinguisher...no wait, it's a can of propane. Seems like this is a better test of card skills than the honour rank system, I very much doubt we'll have three to four hundred free-loaders here for the likes of Shodori to soak up"

    "True fact, Bob, true fact"

    "Yes Jim, and it would now seem that the European competitors are all gathering behind a guy in a straw hat with a plush Jigglypuff in his hand"

    VAN DER LAAAAAAAAN echoes around the arena

    "Wow that is a really nice piece of metagame tech as Erik Van Der Laan, Darkmoon Faire Milan Champion scares off the fires so that all the European players can get into the convention centre"

    "I don't think I've seen anything like it Bob"

    " ... Tatta on the top rope, Van Der Laan out on the mat, OH! OH! Frog splash on ... Jigglypuff?"

    "There's fuzz everywhere?  Tatta just turned jigglypuff into a big pile of cloth and cotton!"

    "He's squating over the body of Jigglypuff now ... wait!  Wright!  Stuart Wright down the aisle!  Tatta doesn't seem him!"

    *SMASH*

    "Chair to the back of the head!  Tatta's down and now Wight going to the top!  The crowd here in the US is actually ... cheering for the Europeans!"

    *pause*

    "BLAIR!  Jeremy Blair leaps the gate around the ring!  You see that?  He's moving like a feather in the wind!"

    "That's an understatement."

    "Blair pushes Wright off the top!  Into the ring now, Blair's piling Wright and VDL into the corner!  The remains of jigglypuff with them!  The crowd's getting into it now!"

    *Grotesque image*

    "OH MY GOODNESS!  BLAIR JUST WENT ASS FIRST INTO THE CORNER AT FULL SPEED!"

     ... To be continued.

    - Tatta

    "But what a display of Lightning Reflexes here! Within the Blink of an Eagle Eye, the Whytefyre Paladin and the gender-switching British Paladin unleash their Holy Shield to the incoming Ass Charge of Blair!"

    "Yeah Jim, Blair's literally getting his butt handed to him here!"

    "This gives VDL just enough time to unpack...what? What is this folks? Van der Laan is trying to revive Jigglypuff with his Portable Pokémon Center!"

    -- Incoming Ad: Portable Pokémon Centers! Always the nut high when your Pokémon run low. Order one today, with Van der Laan approval! *Display of VDL doing the Borat thumbs up!* --

    "This may not be looking good for the US team, Bob. With Jigglypuff revived ("ding ding ding-ding-ding") and Blair's win condition taken out of contest, Wright and VDL are driving them to the flames - with the win-more of Jigglypuff lullabying them to sleep and drawing funny faces on them looming over the battlefield! Are there actually any alternate winconditions left?"

    - To be Continued Next Time in Pro-Player Deathmatch!

    " ... they do have more win conditions!"

    "That's right, Jim, down to the right from the cat walk is the acrobat himself, Tim Batow!"

    *THUD*

    "Or that WAS Batow!  Brad Watson back in action after his brief hiatus!  He's bigger and badder than ever!"

    "Wait!  That's Spreadbury in a Watson mask!  We always knew he wanted to be like his brother-in-law!"

    "Well, Jim, it's not REALLY his brother-in-law yet.  I think I still have a chance with *her*."

    "And now Charles "the Lawyer" McArthur making an appearance at the top of the ramp!  The Europeans don't know what to do!  They're back to back in the ring with Blair and Tatta still under the spell of Jigglypuff!"

    "Shane Wiggins!  He came from under the ring and smashed the Pokemon revival kit and Jigglypuff falls over like dead weight!  Tatta and Blair coming to now!  What will the Europeans ever do?!?"

    "How could we forget! Van der Laan swings his straw hat like Mortal Kombat Klassik Kung Lao, exhausting and dealing 1 damage to MkArthur, Tatta and Wiggans!"

    "Jim..?"

    "And with the Americans numb but still outnumbering the European tag team, Wright goes in for the Counterattack! With magnificent ferocious leaps, he throws punches and kickes everywhere, the hapless US victims unable to strike back in any way!"

    "Jim...! Jim!"

    "In the meanwhile, VDL is in a brawl with a-ready-to-get-it-on-again McArthur..but somehow, McArthur keeps on smiling, even while it's looking like he's getting sliced up pretty bad! Uh, what is this?"

    "Jim!!! You feel this Jim? It's the ground! The ground is shaking!"

    "Oh my! There is something coming up! Something is rising in the middle of the ring, a towering figure with a devilish grin!"

    "Oh my God Jim! IT IS GOREBELLY!"

    "It's not Gorbelly but, Matt Spreadbury Wearing a Gorebelly mask!"


    "Tim Batow Springs back to his feet with ninja Quickness, and does a flip onto the shoulders of Spreadbury/Gorebelly. Tim Rips off the Gorebelly Mask.  Matt is clawing at his eyes and jumping about, like an Angry Goose."

     

    “Strange analogy. I would have said Bucking Bronco, myself.”

     

    “True enough. And we all know what a Bronco is don’t we?”

     

    “Of course. I got one from my wife, last night, when I called out your name, Bob”

     

    “Back to the fight. Tim Batow try’s to hold fast. It's turned into a Midget Wrestling Match here. Tim is fighting back and pulls out a clump of Matt's hair. But wait. What is that? Another Mask? To reveal….is Matt Spreadbury wearing a Matt Spreadbury Mask?”

     

    “No Bob I think that is actually his sister there. It is hard to tell the difference between the two.”

     

     

    “She’s yelling like a Banshee now. Tim can hold on no long and is finally bucked off.”

     

    “Ride em cowboy!”

     

    "Tim springs to his trademark handstand and with a windmill flurry of his legs, sends the girl flying into the stands."

     

    "The members of Team Cheaty face regroup outside of the ring as Tatta helps Blair pull a spectators head out of his ass."

     

    “It’s like some unnatural Childbirth video. The horror.”

    "the lights dim...there is a strange smell of burnt Dutch beard hair and...Jim can it be...there is a distinct smell of baby oil and french cooking"

    The crowd falls silents, the flames burn on, as the French flag is hoisted from atop the oversized Spreadbury twins. With a fateful backstab, the giant gorebelly/spreadbury falls to the ground.

    "Jim...it is Florent Jeudon and Pierre Malehbaud wearing strange alien outfits..."

    "Bob this is totally bizarre, Pierre has exposed nipples and is feeding two hungry WoW players from his teet..."

    "Jim, can you hear that strange music in the back ground...so familiar...is it.."

    "I think that is the X-files theme song"

    The hungry wow baby wrestlers are no less than sjoerd Mulder and jonas Scali.

    "Jim it is Mulder and Scali... and they are now devouring the limp, wet body of Jiggly."

    Pierre looks proud of his breastfed offspring. As he smiles like a proud papa, Tim Batow walks across the ropes like a Lithuanian acrobat and jumps into the Jiggly buffet.

    The fires of Southern California have spread to the Fires of Outland and we have an international royal rumble...

    The Euros have pulled out breastfeeding X-Files actors and a jack farming, Dutchman. But the US has revenge and fury on their side as Brad Watson is fuming over the sudden death of the Spreadbury/Gorebelly fiance almost brother-in-law.

    Watson's head is beginning to expand and his eyes have turned pure red...his skin is taking on a familiar tint of green.

    "What is happening Jim?"

    "I just can't tell Bob, I just can't tell....."

    "... All this carnage, all the madness!  And finally ... "

    *Cue "Wild Thing"*

    "Moorf!  It's Paul Ross in his Elder Moorf outfit!  He's side by side with Ben Drago in his undead apparel!"

    Tatta to a spectator - "I'm one of the best players in the world.  Want to see my deck?  I've been told it's well stacked."

    "Jim, can you believe this?  Ross and Drago with smiles on their ugly faces, the Europeans and the Americans have all stopped in their tracks!"

    "Well, except Tatta.  He's talking to girls at ringside like they were girls on Jack Fejer's facebook page.  But can you blame him?  I love me a British accent."

    " ... Right."

    *Cue "One" by Metallica*

    *Crowd erupts*

    "WAFO-TAPA!?!  WHAT HAPPENS NEXT?!?"

    - Tatta

    Jim, this can't be happening! This darkness that spreads around us..This sincere evil, this sincere faul intention burdening the sky..."

    "We've got to face the facts, Bob, and the warriors amidst us must face their destiny."

    "But they were banned Bob! They don't even play this frigging game! Bob!"

    "They don't put up a lot with rules anyway, Jim.."

    "Will the US and Europeans lay aside their strugglings and work together? If they fail, the world will fall to these figures rising out of the shadows - Hans J Hoeh and Mike Long assault!"

    I have said it before and I will say it again Bob. Me Doth think something Dark and wicked this way cometh.”

     

    “Ja. Un der Uberman Hans Ho.”

     

    “He has grown out his hair a bit. It seems to leave a trail of vile grease as he walks, and is enveloping spectators who venture too near dragging them screaming into some dark Netherworld.  Mike long slithers along the Hair trail feeding upon it for sustinance. I have heard Hans entombed himself in a leather cell, meditating on some evil variant of Squadron Supreme and Darksied Replacement and burning effigies of Paul Ross. Apparently he has found a new evil to team up with in Long.”

     

    “It appears that Long is now feeding on the flesh of the Team formerly Known as Cheaty Face. And what’s that? Their bodies are now twitching and writhing, rising once again. This is amazing. They are now forming a single undead entity. I have never seen anything so horrifying.”

     

    “Actually they don’t look much different to me Bob. Just like a normal sized human now. All though their hollow stare seems a bit more cheerful in their zombfied state.”

     

    “Long is now slithering up the unwitting Tatta's leg, who is not only oblivious to the rejections of below average looking European girls, but seems to be completely unaware that his flesh is being devoured by the Long creature.”

    Fej: "John Tatta, this past Sunday at Darkmoon Faire London you failed to show up for your WoW Dream Machine Championship match against me"

    The crowd is booing

    Fej: "But I am a generous person, so I will offer you one last chance for this title. But it will be on my turf, my match stipulations. It'll be at a time of my choosing, and a match of my choice"

    More booing.

    Fej: "It'll be in my (kayfabe) hometown of Philadelphia, and it'll be a game you've never played and at which I have never lost. Snakes, ladders and chairs"

    John Tatta's music, the American Idol theme tune, hits. John Tatta walks out to the stage with a mike.

    JT: "You know what, Fej...FINE!"

    Big stare down, and Tatta leaves and goes backstage. WB (WoW's JR) and Charles 'The Lawyer' McArthur return to giving commentary.

    WB: "My God, Tatta's really going to go one on one with Fej in his hometown of Philadelphia this weekend at DMF."

    Mc: "I'm lost for words WB, I don't know what to say. Tatta has got to win this or he's off to Yu-Gi-Oh"

    WB: "And God knows we'd all hate to see that happen, except for Yu-Gi-Oh's General Manager Andrew Lam who has a 3 year contract with Tatta he can't wait to sign"

    WB:  And this match is STILL going on!

    MC (Charles McArthur):  And over the past 4 months, I've lost my job, found my missing Stronghold Gauntlets, pee'd my pants countless times, and wiped spit off my face from trolls!

    WB:  ... (Blank stare)

    MC:  Tatta and Fejer has beards down to their ankles in the 4 months they have continued this match, neither having the nerve to give the other the pleasure of a win.  Right, WB?

    WB:  If you say so.  Both men are actually slumped in their respective corners with bibs on.  Must be dinner time.

    MC:  Yea, sometime ago they agreed to take dinner breaks at this time each day.  I think today is the Meatloaf!  My favorite!

    WB:  Oh the humanity!

    (Mcarthur to the ref ... )

    CM:  Ketchup please!

    Re: Twenty Nine-Thousand-Twenty Nine-Posts

    Chaos is one of my favorite subjects.  Chaos Theory is a stranger creature than Chaos itself because it encompases elements of order and orderly methods of examining chaos.  The symbol of eight arrows to represent chaos is closer to chaos theory then chaos itself(imo).

    I think it is neat that the butterfly effect has been one of the common knowledge explorations of chaos theory.  The butterfly has always been a symbol of mysterious change or nascent mutability/predestination. 

    I hope that the quantum chaos is deterministic so that  the universe does proceed from big bang to big crunch. And inbetween the crunch and the next expansion if the singularity ever repeats identically, then time will loop even if it takes a near infinity of universes to do so.  In this way time travel backwards becomes posible by relativistic time travel forward.  The only problem is escaping the system of infinite regressions without upsetting the deterministic effects of the quantum 'foam.'  The old shift and switch.

    I think you'll find that there'd be no time between the crunch and the 'next expansion' by definition.

    The big crunch, although conjuring romantic images, isn't really a popular view in astronomy

    "How could we forget! Van der Laan swings his straw hat like Mortal Kombat Klassik Kung Lao, exhausting and dealing 1 damage to MkArthur, Tatta and Wiggans!"

    "Jim..?"

    "And with the Americans numb but still outnumbering the European tag team, Wright goes in for the Counterattack! With magnificent ferocious leaps, he throws punches and kickes everywhere, the hapless US victims unable to strike back in any way!"

    "Jim...! Jim!"

    "In the meanwhile, VDL is in a brawl with a-ready-to-get-it-on-again McArthur..but somehow, McArthur keeps on smiling, even while it's looking like he's getting sliced up pretty bad! Uh, what is this?"

    "Jim!!! You feel this Jim? It's the ground! The ground is shaking!"

    "Oh my! There is something coming up! Something is rising in the middle of the ring, a towering figure with a devilish grin!"

    "Oh my God Jim! IT IS GOREBELLY!"

    "It's not Gorbelly but, Matt Spreadbury Wearing a Gorebelly mask!"


    "Tim Batow Springs back to his feet with ninja Quickness, and does a flip onto the shoulders of Spreadbury/Gorebelly. Tim Rips off the Gorebelly Mask.  Matt is clawing at his eyes and jumping about, like an Angry Goose."

     

    “Strange analogy. I would have said Bucking Bronco, myself.”

     

    “True enough. And we all know what a Bronco is don’t we?”

     

    “Of course. I got one from my wife, last night, when I called out your name, Bob”

     

    “Back to the fight. Tim Batow try’s to hold fast. It's turned into a Midget Wrestling Match here. Tim is fighting back and pulls out a clump of Matt's hair. But wait. What is that? Another Mask? To reveal….is Matt Spreadbury wearing a Matt Spreadbury Mask?”

     

    “No Bob I think that is actually his sister there. It is hard to tell the difference between the two.”

     

     

    “She’s yelling like a Banshee now. Tim can hold on no long and is finally bucked off.”

     

    “Ride em cowboy!”

     

    "Tim springs to his trademark handstand and with a windmill flurry of his legs, sends the girl flying into the stands."

     

    "The members of Team Cheaty face regroup outside of the ring as Tatta helps Blair pull a spectators head out of his ass."

     

    “It’s like some unnatural Childbirth video. The horror.”

    "the lights dim...there is a strange smell of burnt Dutch beard hair and...Jim can it be...there is a distinct smell of baby oil and french cooking"

    The crowd falls silents, the flames burn on, as the French flag is hoisted from atop the oversized Spreadbury twins. With a fateful backstab, the giant gorebelly/spreadbury falls to the ground.

    "Jim...it is Florent Jeudon and Pierre Malehbaud wearing strange alien outfits..."

    "Bob this is totally bizarre, Pierre has exposed nipples and is feeding two hungry WoW players from his teet..."

    "Jim, can you hear that strange music in the back ground...so familiar...is it.."

    "I think that is the X-files theme song"

    The hungry wow baby wrestlers are no less than sjoerd Mulder and jonas Scali.

    "Jim it is Mulder and Scali... and they are now devouring the limp, wet body of Jiggly."

    Pierre looks proud of his breastfed offspring. As he smiles like a proud papa, Tim Batow walks across the ropes like a Lithuanian acrobat and jumps into the Jiggly buffet.

    The fires of Southern California have spread to the Fires of Outland and we have an international royal rumble...

    The Euros have pulled out breastfeeding X-Files actors and a jack farming, Dutchman. But the US has revenge and fury on their side as Brad Watson is fuming over the sudden death of the Spreadbury/Gorebelly fiance almost brother-in-law.

    Watson's head is beginning to expand and his eyes have turned pure red...his skin is taking on a familiar tint of green.

    "What is happening Jim?"

    "I just can't tell Bob, I just can't tell....."

    "... All this carnage, all the madness!  And finally ... "

    *Cue "Wild Thing"*

    "Moorf!  It's Paul Ross in his Elder Moorf outfit!  He's side by side with Ben Drago in his undead apparel!"

    Tatta to a spectator - "I'm one of the best players in the world.  Want to see my deck?  I've been told it's well stacked."

    "Jim, can you believe this?  Ross and Drago with smiles on their ugly faces, the Europeans and the Americans have all stopped in their tracks!"

    "Well, except Tatta.  He's talking to girls at ringside like they were girls on Jack Fejer's facebook page.  But can you blame him?  I love me a British accent."

    " ... Right."

    *Cue "One" by Metallica*

    *Crowd erupts*

    "WAFO-TAPA!?!  WHAT HAPPENS NEXT?!?"

    - Tatta

    Jim, this can't be happening! This darkness that spreads around us..This sincere evil, this sincere faul intention burdening the sky..."

    "We've got to face the facts, Bob, and the warriors amidst us must face their destiny."

    "But they were banned Bob! They don't even play this frigging game! Bob!"

    "They don't put up a lot with rules anyway, Jim.."

    "Will the US and Europeans lay aside their strugglings and work together? If they fail, the world will fall to these figures rising out of the shadows - Hans J Hoeh and Mike Long assault!"

    I have said it before and I will say it again Bob. Me Doth think something Dark and wicked this way cometh.”

     

    “Ja. Un der Uberman Hans Ho.”

     

    “He has grown out his hair a bit. It seems to leave a trail of vile grease as he walks, and is enveloping spectators who venture too near dragging them screaming into some dark Netherworld.  Mike long slithers along the Hair trail feeding upon it for sustinance. I have heard Hans entombed himself in a leather cell, meditating on some evil variant of Squadron Supreme and Darksied Replacement and burning effigies of Paul Ross. Apparently he has found a new evil to team up with in Long.”

     

    “It appears that Long is now feeding on the flesh of the Team formerly Known as Cheaty Face. And what’s that? Their bodies are now twitching and writhing, rising once again. This is amazing. They are now forming a single undead entity. I have never seen anything so horrifying.”

     

    “Actually they don’t look much different to me Bob. Just like a normal sized human now. All though their hollow stare seems a bit more cheerful in their zombfied state.”

     

    “Long is now slithering up the unwitting Tatta's leg, who is not only oblivious to the rejections of below average looking European girls, but seems to be completely unaware that his flesh is being devoured by the Long creature.”

    Fej: "John Tatta, this past Sunday at Darkmoon Faire London you failed to show up for your WoW Dream Machine Championship match against me"

    The crowd is booing

    Fej: "But I am a generous person, so I will offer you one last chance for this title. But it will be on my turf, my match stipulations. It'll be at a time of my choosing, and a match of my choice"

    More booing.

    Fej: "It'll be in my (kayfabe) hometown of Philadelphia, and it'll be a game you've never played and at which I have never lost. Snakes, ladders and chairs"

    John Tatta's music, the American Idol theme tune, hits. John Tatta walks out to the stage with a mike.

    JT: "You know what, Fej...FINE!"

    Big stare down, and Tatta leaves and goes backstage. WB (WoW's JR) and Charles 'The Lawyer' McArthur return to giving commentary.

    WB: "My God, Tatta's really going to go one on one with Fej in his hometown of Philadelphia this weekend at DMF."

    Mc: "I'm lost for words WB, I don't know what to say. Tatta has got to win this or he's off to Yu-Gi-Oh"

    WB: "And God knows we'd all hate to see that happen, except for Yu-Gi-Oh's General Manager Andrew Lam who has a 3 year contract with Tatta he can't wait to sign"

    WB:  And this match is STILL going on!

    MC (Charles McArthur):  And over the past 4 months, I've lost my job, found my missing Stronghold Gauntlets, pee'd my pants countless times, and wiped spit off my face from trolls!

    WB:  ... (Blank stare)

    MC:  Tatta and Fejer has beards down to their ankles in the 4 months they have continued this match, neither having the nerve to give the other the pleasure of a win.  Right, WB?

    WB:  If you say so.  Both men are actually slumped in their respective corners with bibs on.  Must be dinner time.

    MC:  Yea, sometime ago they agreed to take dinner breaks at this time each day.  I think today is the Meatloaf!  My favorite!

    WB:  Oh the humanity!

    (Mcarthur to the ref ... )

    CM:  Ketchup please!

     

    (To be continued)

    - Tatta

    Chaos is one of my favorite subjects.  Chaos Theory is a stranger creature than Chaos itself because it encompases elements of order and orderly methods of examining chaos.  The symbol of eight arrows to represent chaos is closer to chaos theory then chaos itself(imo).

    I think it is neat that the butterfly effect has been one of the common knowledge explorations of chaos theory.  The butterfly has always been a symbol of mysterious change or nascent mutability/predestination. 

    I hope that the quantum chaos is deterministic so that  the universe does proceed from big bang to big crunch. And inbetween the crunch and the next expansion if the singularity ever repeats identically, then time will loop even if it takes a near infinity of universes to do so.  In this way time travel backwards becomes posible by relativistic time travel forward.  The only problem is escaping the system of infinite regressions without upsetting the deterministic effects of the quantum 'foam.'  The old shift and switch.

    -dang it!  updated my internet explorer and now I can't find spellchecker....welcome to the world of dyslexia- 8).

    I think the Butterfly Effect is just absolutly fascinating. The thought that a simple creature can throw the trajectory of that of a tornado, or hurricane is astounding.

    I do not find it that difficult to believe that order leads to disorder, chaos, back to the cycle of life, order. Thus creating an endless pattern in the sky to show that we merly follow the cycle that once housed brothers of our brothers years ago, and will create the same home (Home meaning earth) for us too. As much as I would like to believe it, I do not think this earth will ever "Deplete" per say. It will destroy itself in a manner of ridding itself of life as we know and start all over again. As to how, I havn't the slightest clue.

    Can these things really be fortold in the sky? What if the stars themselves read a story and explane our history in the universe. What if our past brothers manipulated the stars in a way to sort of "Tattoo" their story on the universe. And we just have no idea how to decipher it...

    The thought of repeating existance is peculiar for the fact that, how many life times have we cycled? Though we find no trace of "Past times", what if there really is? What if we created technology that far surpasses what we have now. So interesting.

    I think you'll find that there'd be no time between the crunch and the 'next expansion' by definition.

    The big crunch, although conjuring romantic images, isn't really a popular view in astronomy


    Yeah you are right...I'm not convinced that the singualrity at the beginning/end of time is stable and unchanging though.(as it is according to definition).  If it does change then time will still exist.  Or at least as much as a tree falling in the woods makes noise when nobody is around to hear it.

    I know most think the heat death of the universe is more likely. Won't the last bits of matter move through the universe until the finally hitting one another. With friction destroying one.  In this way all the heat energy will be concentrated in the smallest mass posible.  This may not be the same kind of sigularity that is responsible for the big bang but who knows.

    My hope is for infinite regression with an out for the wise like the old wheel of life belief.  My fear is that Von Nuemon devices are cloistering inert forms of energy(say neutrinos) as a kind of zero point energy/power source for their long vanished creators.  These nano-bots could be the cause of the dark matter question.  An undying army slowly packing the universe up in styrofoam.

     Booch138,

      If technological civilations have risen and fallen here on earth without us moderns knowing, then evidance could still exist.  Knowledge of their science would exist in their artifacts.  Unfortunatly their would be great power in hoarding that knowledge.  Keeping everyone else ignorant of the true history of earth would be so valuable that if could justify and fund enormous efforts to maintain the secret. 

      The crusade that took Jerusalem was mostly just to dig up the temple, When Saladin came in he took some back(not pieces of the true cross).  The invasions of Egypt were always  a prelude to intense digging.  The destruction(?) of libraries in Alaxandria and the new world seemed senseless even then. Hitler's forces collected items from many great collections of ancient artifacts.  And the looting in Iraq's great mussuems is just the latest example of how these things will be keep away from common knowledge.  Don't even get me started about how the freedom of information acts don't apply to the smithsonian's collections.(cough...cough..hollow earth explorations)

    Yesterday's magic is todays science but yesterdays magic was yesteryears science also.

    As for astrology.....I have experianced things that perplex me.  Things I'd never expect someone else to believe.  I've seen enough to discount nothing in this world.  But I still have troble with star patterns as a map of destiny or whatever.

    Peace

    One thing I do think is telling.....This period in earths history is a short time where total eclipses of the sun are viewable from the surface of the planet. Most of the time the moon is too close or too far away.  That we can see the full occutation of the sun, with the corona still visiable, is a work of art.  Art that would take celestrial manipulations.  If you traveled in space you could move to a spot where there was a perfect eclipse anytime you wanted, of any two bodies.  To think that such an awesome experiance could be so rare(once in most lifetimes per location) on a planetary surface and so common in space hints at a design.  The moon is just the right size/distance and this is more likely engeneered than happenstance (imo).

    Re: Twenty Nine-Thousand-Twenty Nine-Posts

    Thats the thing though. There has to be pieces of a puzzle on this earth. And there are, like the Libraries you spoke of for instance. There was word of cures for cancer (among other things) before they were (Destroyed?) So we will never really know. My question is, what if we all live life to the end, and we discover (or reveal) to ourselves a secret (or advance) in technology. This technology could be so advanced that within a short period of time we destroy ourselves trying to control it and use it. And the cycle repeats. And we are set about to repeat the same exact path. That's just something that stick in my head and makes me really think.

    Astrology is a very complex and interesting study. I feel that stars, depending on how you view the subject, in a way do form a pattern that tells a destiny. Not for an individual though. I believe, like I mentioned earlier that the stars tell a story of the universe as a whole. What has happened, what the cycle consists of, and when we will know of what it can bring. I just think it is a language that can never be read, so its purpose is not really known, at least at this point. Perhaps at a point in the cycle we discover certain "Clues" that can decipher the star's language and manipulate them as to tell our part of the story, similar to a journal entry, or a data log, as well as read other stories. I can see around this time would be a discovery of a life time revealing life altering circumstances, possibly resulting into the fall in man, for another time more.

    I tend to think about this *** way too much and I scare myself when I do *laughs* Maybe is makes no sense, maybe it makes all the sense you will ever need. It's just facsinating that even the possibility (as far fetched as it may sound) of the idea even exists.

    Re: Twenty Nine-Thousand-Twenty Nine-Posts

    Hey what do you think about memes.   Ideas that replicatate or survive independant of the thinker.  Like a song you can't get out of your head.

    Genetic memory.   How much intellectual information could be in our DNA or other more subtle chemical agents.

    Instinct and intuition.  Would ESP give an evolutionary advantage to an organism?  Would  mutations of ESP genes/memes become instinct or intelegence?

    Cosmic shared uncousiousness.  Ever heard about the hundred monkeys?  Maybe this could explain many 'psycic' happenings.  Our neverous systems could be broadcasting/recieving antenna right?  That would explain why identical twins can have awareness of each other at a distance.
