Are you still fumbling around with the twisted telephone lines at BT, Chris? I just got the message that some people out there, like the NSA, CIA, or others apparently is able to tell me what I am just thinking. What about that. Believable or not? |

And if you don't happen to know. In addition to the Falkland Islands (which is a long way from home, but definitely British by name and culture), we also find the quite large island of Georgia farther out in the Atlantic. Anyway, just a warning shot at the arrival made room for surrender there. Forgot the second point. Getting back to it when it comes to my mind. |

My thread here! In the beginning... God created the Universe. A 100 billion stars. A 100 billion galaxies. Everything supposed to be governed by the laws of nature (gravity). Radio signals coming from space or neighboring stars are astronomers highest wish. Is it something worth working on, or may it possibly be accomplished in this or that way? E.T. (if present) is neither a passenger onboard the carrier freighter "Nostromo", nor a bicycle passenger (what given phantasy). Rather, he is having short of time, only refuelling his engine while patroling around in his marvelous engine. Speaking of 0, 1, 2, 3 . . . (0.84 and counting). Almost a policeman he is. Hiding in the shadow of nature as we see it. And possibly celebrating New Year's Eve together with us. (!! Two times now !!) As well as a couple of nuts around (including sigarette smokers). Blame inhalation for their possible stupidity, perhaps. I almost slipped on the ice when back home with my 4 shopping bags of plastics meant for the enjoyment of Christmas. I apparently forgot to buy the biscuit cake and After Eight chocolate right now. It is stated that high rised buildings are hiding possible poverty around. You need a Cognac for the After Eight chocolate to be working properly. Anyway, preparing my video camera for the next around tree... Should I perhaps give the poor a thought in this time? Maybe so. But not when it comes to idiots. |

Travel through time and space by means of gravity. Makes a complete idiot of myself... |

Talking about gravity ...

Ah, everything you eat supposedly is going to your stomach ending up there. My parents are now 77 years old of age and counting. My father has degraded recently as a result of Parkinson's (which supposedly is an "imagined" or "thought of" brain decease). My mother had a stomach problem again this last week. More understandable. That's because my younger brother was born on December 26, 1965 in -25 Celcius. Buh! Winter. I guess your 40's is your happiness time of life. May it last forever. |

Oh, 1.40 or 1.70 for the spike scores no more to be seen. That 13 digit gaussian was recorded, BTW. Lying around somewhere. Possibly I should post it on YouTube (adding my "credentials", if any). Buh! |

Yes Mark. Woke up from bed two weeks ago and found out that two fingers in the left hand had died upon me. The ring finger and the one at the left. Not to much better right now, but typing with the keypad is not that problematic. Blame age or ageing, I suppose. Hopefully I did not suffer a stroke from food consumption. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mrYpqc244s8&list=RD02cvuUwTHOqj8 Some two minutes or less into this one, you get some sweet music. |

And 64 bits is not supposed to be working flawlessly either. Accessing this thread momentarily breaks up my YouTube playback. Oh, what nasty. |

Oh, Turkey again when it comes to Christmas dinner, I guess or suppose. Still the same problem of supposedly poverty (or phantasy) lurking around. Anyway, San Francisco is not L.A. Not New York either. No secret that construction of buildings comes first, next the consumption of hamburgers. Still, I am supposed to be donating to this project. Where is poverty found in all of this? Anyway, censorship definitely could be far worse. Where am I supposed to be finding happiness? No new findings or results here. Please go to PrimeGrid instead. |

Oh, turkey... Rosanna (without a flaw): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a1KpcR07LYI Or maybe it is '99' instead? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a1KpcR07LYI Not at the end yet (25 years past). |

William Remington Moses, of course. I almost had forgotten that story. Anyway, a signal is supposed to be "number interpretable". Meaning that Q.N.A.N (or QNAN) is supposed to be translatable into a number. Another story. |

Yes! It could happen to me - it could happen to you. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6BjSoxG1Upk Look around. |

There is well known formulated fact today that the Universe as we are being able to observe and understand it is revealing its secrets by means of the way science is approaching the subject readily at hand. Whether or not we are observing white dwarfs, neutron stars and black holes, or the possible existence of deities as well, each subject field is being carried out in a way which best fits the respective subject being scrutinized. One point hard to miss or forget is that while there are supposedly many deities around or being present, some evil, some divine, is that no-one of these deities (with the possible exception of God himself) is known as being a creator of the Universe as we are observing it today. To us space is everything from grains of dust and sand being remnants of meteroids and asteroids, through white dwarfs, neutron stars and black holes. Also we are having space itself which is constantly inflating (or expanding) as a result of its creation by means of the Big Bang. Space is mostly stars and galaxies. The only known life known in the Universe is being found here on earth, making us possibly unique. As far as we know, the creation and existence of the Universe is not synonymous with life, because we only know of life here on earth, not somewhere else. So the question becomes then - is life itself the result of divine forces behind it? Intelligent life when present is synonymous with thinking, dreaming and creation of materials like cars and buildings. Also the thinking process is giving room for ideas which sometimes may be carried out in practice, as well as theories which may ultimately become proven by means of scientific studies. Defintitely there are many scientists who are either agnostics or atheists. But everything which may be related to the possible existence of deities should not be just associated with religion (really the bible) either. One of the chapters in the bible tells the story about John's revelation. When at school in my younger days, I really was able to associated the bible with the book of psalms. When you attend church, you are supposed to be singing these psalms. These psalms are being synchronized with preaching, carried out by the priest, which really is all about God. Another wording or description here is "gospel" (or evangelical/evangelist). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gospel So while you either may be in the position of perhaps starving to death, freezing from cold, or become a victim of a decease, is there any point of believing in such deities when at the same time you only know that space is possible infinite (Big Bang vs. the constant inflation/contraction theory). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fred_Hoyle Anyway, angels in the sky - angels here on earth. Time to believe in UFO's and extraterrestrials as well, perhaps? Or maybe this rather becomes just another subject instead? |

To me as an amateur astronomer, assuming that our galaxy is a barred spiral, is quite hard to come to hands with. Despite the diameter of the Milky Way galaxy being some 100,000 light years across, it is not that symmetrical in shape when being observed. We are able to see both stars and clusters of stars as well as light and dark clouds of gas. Our Milky Way is definitely an evolved galaxy. The Andromeda galaxy, M31, is supposedly even larger than the Milky Way and possibly even older than our own galaxy. Compare with the Small and Large Magellanic Clouds, for example. The Large Magellanic Cloud is showing signs of developing a central bar and may become such a galaxy in the future. For now, the assumption that the Milky Way galaxy is a Sb/Sc type galaxy is the one that fits best when it comes to me right now. |

The previous post slipped away at the end because of what fell out of my mind. But in fact, Fred Hoyle should be associated with the "Steady State Theory". Which means that the birth and subsequent death of a Universe is supposed to be a continuous process. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steady_State_theory Astronomers are speculating whether parallell Universes may exist, each being subjected to its own laws of physics. Also better to say that psalms are being being performed in church in conjunction with the preaching during the service, in order to bring a message of peace and unity. Especially in this time of Christmas. |

Oh, dog and cat you two are as usual. Where are the mice? I am hoping for a nice Christmas, even though right now it's 12:07 AM here and I had just an orange for breakfast. Not my best time of the day. By the way Mark, that was nice to hear that from you. I should perhaps read things better through first before posting my thoughts. |
