Mark has probably gotten some ideas about me that are not true.
People can not get an extremely good idea about a person on the internet. People who I know - like people who live around me and people who I meet at parties - know that I am nice and I talk a lot - I do not talk about God to them - I do not ever talk about physics - I do not ever talk about science - I almost all the time go to bars by myself because I do not like to scream and I need to scream if I talk at a bar - extreme amount of noise at bars - I do not like to go to a bar with a person and not talk to them - I try not to talk to any person at a bar because I need to scream - if any person tries to talk to me about physics I start talking about girls - if any person tries to talk to me about God I start talking about girls - I do not like talking to people on computers like with these groups - I have not ever told 1 girl who I dated 1 of my theories - 99 % of people who know me do not know I am associated with physics. This is probably true for most people who write articles for these groups. They are different from what people think of them. Uncle Al is probably nice to some people. Jack S. will talk to people who live around him. Mark will date a girl who thinks there is a God. Richard may be nice to some of his students as a physics teacher. Kurt Stocklmeir |

Mark has probably gotten some ideas about me that are not true. Entirely possible. People can not get an extremely good idea about a person on the internet. That works both ways, Kurt. I probably think I'm a different sort of person from the sort you and others here think I am, though lately I've been working on only expressing the real me. People who I know - like people who live around me and people who I meet at parties - know that I am nice and I talk a lot - I do not talk about God to them - I do not ever talk about physics - I do not ever talk about science - I consider any subject fit for discussion, though I usually try to tailor the level of discussion to who I think I'm talking with. I've been surprised how often the other person ramps it up though. It's been said that there are three Forbidden Topics at such gatherings; sex, politics, and religion. Yet it seems that everyone wants to talk about them... In my experience it isn't so much what you say as how you say it. Why, once I managed to explain Lorentz contraction to a drunk carpenter over a pitcher of beer. In exchange he explained toenailing, so we both came out ahead. I suspect he got more out of it than I did though; next time we met I had purple thumbs and he didn't. I almost all the time go to bars by myself because I do not like to scream and I need to scream if I talk at a bar - extreme amount of noise at bars - I do not like to go to a bar with a person and not talk to them - I try not to talk to any person at a bar because I need to scream We are in exact agreement! Well, except I very rarely go to bars because of that. - if any person tries to talk to me about physics I start talking about girls - if any person tries to talk to me about God I start talking about girls - I do not like talking to people on computers like with these groups - I have not ever told 1 girl who I dated 1 of my theories - 99 % of people who know me do not know I am associated with physics. Other way around here; 99% of people that know me know I am. This is probably true for most people who write articles for these groups. They are different from what people think of them. Uncle Al is probably nice to some people. Almost certainly. His idea of "nice" may not be the same as everyone else's though. ;) Mark will date a girl who thinks there is a God. I gave up on girls when I discovered women. And I've been married to one for near thirteen years, thanks just the same. If you're wondering, yes, we have occasional deep theological discussions. I wouldn't have married her if we couldn't! Mark L. Fergerson |

Please tell the following to your buddies, Kurt,
and then report back to me. Although physical processes determine absolutely everything, so that the future is just as fixed as the past, time is a spatial dimension ( i.e. falsely directional ), and we are 4-D rocks, static and immutable... It's impossible to imagine. Yet gravity is modeled that way. In General Relativity, time is spatial. All changes ( including choices ) are merely notional, not real. Likewise, entropy is merely notional. PseudoEntropy is our PseudoGod. As God, PseudoEntropy creats, " uses " and then destroys us. |

The_Ghost flagrantly abuses Usenet everytime he begins his posts
by auto-quoting random headers ad nauseam, e.g.: " In sci.physics, T Wake wrote on Wed, 25 Apr 2007 19:43:31 +0100 : "Art Deco" wrote in message ... ". |
