I'M BACK! AGE:80+,RETIRED EDUCATOR-TAUGHT K-16,(certified in 8 fields-533 credit hours,GPA 3.76), SERVED IN WWII,KOREA sercice time 10 yrs. 10 mths,). MARRIED 50+ YEARS!!!. MENSA. HOBBIES: READING, SCIENCE / HISTORY (KEEPING UP/LOOKING BACK). TRAVELING TO CRATERS (METEOR/VOLCANIC), LOOKING UP, LOOKING DOWN (collecting rocks/minerals-always searching for meteorites) HAVE 86 IN MY COLLECTION INCLUDING THE ONLY ONES FOUND IN THE U.S.A. THAT FLUORESCE! PLUS THE FIRST FOUND IN DELAWARE!!! MY PASSION IS INTERRELATING AND CORRELATING MANY DISCIPLINES INTO THE FIELDS OF ASTRONOMY: (HISTORY,MYTHOLOGY.BIOLOGY,GEOLOGY,PHYSICS,MUSIC,ART,LITERATURE,POETRY,COSMOLOGY AND ASTROBIOLOGY); I'M WRITTING A BOOK ON THE ACOUSTICAL NATURE OF OUR UNIVERSE. HAVE 8 TELESCOPES ( SOLAR AND RADIO INCLUDED WITH THE OTHER 6 ). AMERICAN EDUCATION IS ANOTHER PASSION - WANT TO SEE AN EDUCATED ELECTORATE, THAT UNDERSTANDS THAT OUR BEST NATURAL RESOURCE IS OUR CHILDREN, AND THAT THIS FRAGILE PLANET WE LIVE ON MUST BE TAKEN CARE OF BY ALL NATIONS. WE BUILT A WORKING RADIO TELESCOPE ( my students did for less than $45, ( they listened to the Sun, heard meteor passing over our school, and Jupiters voice joined the chorus)). FOR THE PRICE OF A FOOTBALL UNIFORM -( $300 ), EVERY JR/SR HIGH SCHOOL COULD JOIN SETI. THINK OF 50 STATE NET WORK. THINK OF THE EDUCATIONAL OPPERTUNITIES TO CREATE A NATIONAL RESEARCH PROGRAM IN EVERY SCHOOL DISTRICT, TURNING OUT RESEARCH SCIENTISTS, INSTEAD OF WHAT HAS AND IS TAKING PLACE IN AMERICAN EDUCATION SINCE THE ' BIG TEN ' CHANGED THE DIRECTION OF SCINCE EDUCATION IN THE 1880's, AT HARVARD UNIVERSITY. I HAVE BEEN READING EVERY THING ABOUT THE ALLEN ARRAY - MOORE'S LAW COULD BE SHORTENED, IF OUR SCHOOL SYSTEMS JOINED THE 42 DISHES. ( I KNOW THE GOAL IS 350 DISHES. JILL TARTER, LEO BLITZ AND RICK FOSTER ARE DOING A TERRIFIC JOB - I ENVY ALL OF THEM, THEY ARE OPENING THE DOOR OF ACOUSTICS. MANY QUESTIONS PUZZLING OBSERVORS WILL BE REEXAMINED. DARK ENERGY AND DARK MATTER - IF THEY EXIST, SHOULD REVEAL THEMSELVES BY USING THE SENSE OF SOUND. ANYTHING THAT VIBRATES, ROTATES, OSCILLATES, EXPLODES, COLLIDES, HAS A SIGNATURE, JUST AS THE ELECTROMAGNETIC SPECTRUM. IT IS NOT JUST LISTENING FROM THE NOTES A BLACK HOLE OR QUANTUM MATTER MAKES,IT HEARING THEIR VOICES, AND UNDERSTANDING THEM! THE MORE SENSES WE USE ,THE BETTER WE CAN FIND SOME ANSWERES TO THE ENGIMAS THAT CONFRONT US IN COSMOLOGY. THE ALLEN ARRAY IS A STEP IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION. THE BLIND RADIO ASTRONOMER IS A POSITIVE STEP INTHE RIGHT DIRECTION. CARL SAGEN'S BOOK AND MOVIE WHERE AN INSPIRATION TO ME. MANY SCIENTISTS ARE GOOD MUSICIANS, SO IS OUR CHAOTIC UNIVERSE! THANKS FOR LISTENING, Al
PS I DID RUN SETI ON MY OLDER COMPUTER. HAVING A PROBLEM WITH BOINC. IT KEEPS ASKING ME FOR A PROJECT URL, THEN IT REJECTS ME WHEN I TRY TO JOIN THE PROJECT AGAIN. HELP!!!!!!! Al
alvynnacman@mac.com or alvyn22@mac.com i don't have much time left before i become stardust again, would like to do some real science - SETI and the EINSTEIN PROJECT.
