Oriel - 5th attempt
"Honest Abe" wrote in message ...
It always amazes me that not very much time elapses before the Or*** subject gets resurrected once again. It has been suggested not just once, but many times, to add this aloof guy to your rejection filters. It has been suggested not just once, but many times, to ignore this aloof guy's posts because of their meaningless content. It has been suggested not just once, but many times, that trying to have a conversation with this guy ends up taking up unnecessary Internet bandwidth. It has been suggested not just once, but many times, that continuing to reply to these unnecessary posts defeats the purpose of the kill filters for those sensible among us who don't want to see his or others worthless posts. Need I go on, or has the point been made, and made, and MADE AGAIN! I think some of you must be caught in a quantum reality where the uncertainty principle doesn't apply because if it did, the mere mention of this non-matching atomic signature would have gone against the scientific principles present within your reality. Obviously, these types of quantum realities must exist, but I don't have to subscribe to them. Bottom line for all who keep the Or*** phenomenon alive.... get a life, either within the current space-time continuum or an alternate one where the quantum realities don't overlap. ===================================== As the miserable whining Honest Abe only shows his griping head above the parapet to bitch and moan about Kelleher and not to entertain us as Kelleher does, he shall be killfiled. *plonk* -- This message is brought to you from the keyboard of Lord Androcles, Zeroth Earl of Medway. When I get my O.B.E. I'll be an earlobe. |

As an example - Oriel, if you look due south at midnight on July 1st and again at midnight on January 1st of the next year will you see the same stars in the same places. Yes or no? It would be interesting to see if "Oriole" could get by a CAPTCHA (not practical on USENET.) It is one of the saddest sights imaginable as astronomy was overrun by people who had no regard for its precepts apart from destroying them in order to promote themselves above the topics they profess to understand yet clearly do not.The trend, therefore, is towards homocentricity - a complete disregard for the celestial arena and human involvement in discovery of the Earth's motions or the use of the Earth's motions as the foundations for timekeeping.It is no longer my issue,the new story of an idealized rotation once in 24 hours back in 1820 is a continuation of a homocentric process that has gone on for centuries and shows no sign of abating. The way the timekeepers and the great astronomers laid out their arguments,insights and discoveries are as enjoyable today as when they first appeared,it takes only people with hearts big enough to allow them to tell their own stories and when possible to modify or adapt new approaches without distorting them for self serving ends as they did a number of centuries ago. The Christian life is life in more abundance,a more rooted connection between the individual and the Universal and even in this dark era,that light shines brighter than it ever did.May people here find it in some way and ,when possible,add to what others have done. |

I tended to kill-file responders to trolls back in the days of sci.astro and from my perspective the group became almost readable. The problem was that the kill-fill contained about a thousand names. |

The 'phenomena' in this case is pejorative however when the most renowned institution in the world,NASA in this case,can't handle the simple references and the trajectory of reasoning which keeps rotations in sync with 24 hour AM/PM cycles in order to support an alternative mechanical modeling using stellar circumpolar motion and a clock,then each and every one of you have something to judge the present situation by. The wider world has many difficulties and faces bigger ones still in the coming years yet an argument over one day/one rotation should not be one of them and the very fact that I have known nothing but hostility to what is effectively the primary fact in all astronomy does not reflect badly on me,after all,I am handling many of the systems inherited from other eras,including the erroneous ones,but it casts badly on those who are aware something went badly wrong and who don't move to correct matters. It is not a question of who looks bad but how quickly it can be fixed and that is the way I leave it,phenomenon or no phenomenon. |
