$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('pstarr', '&')quot;Software in your head?" You sound like a Wired Magazine ad salesman. There is no software in your head. No one has ever laid eyes on gooey grey code. Sorry Agent, I must question the "evolutionary validity of the improvement."


Agent is programed..... :)

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('AgentR11', 'J')ust because it doesn't progress and improve in the way that you might approve of, does not negate the evolutionary validity of the improvement.


It isn't a question of my approval. We are fouling our nest and evolving toward our doom. Doesn't seem to me that we've learned much at all, Agent.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('pstarr', 't')here is no way in hell that the human brain/DNA nexus has anything to do with SETI, facebook or twitter.


I agree entirely. I don't have a facebook thingy, and use twitter only for receiving emergency management organization alert and status messages. Kinda a modern version of a listserv.

And when did SETI come in to the conversation? Most awful waste of scientific resources ever brought into being.
Yes we are, as we are,
And so shall we remain,
Until the end.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('vision-master', 'T')hat's bc we have lost the understanding of the solar and lunar principals.....


Like "Early to bed early to rise.....?"

Do you follow them VM? Introvert during waning/ extrovert during waxing?
16 hour days in summer 6 hours in winter? Up before the dawn?
Understanding is not the same as doing, or following, I think you know this.

I have a funny feeling that you are actually correct that we have undone our natural strength by ignoring nature and how we fit in. There is nothing more unnatural than being dictated to by a machine, yet from the bell tower to the alarm clock to the cellphone and facebook, we seem to fall so easily for exactly this.

SG, I heard the Moon has a 18.6 year cycle?

Image
We conclude that the Pueblo Indians recorded the extreme northern rising positions of the moon at major and minor standstills. In addition, as we speculated earlier (Sofaer et al. 1979 a), the number of grooves in the spiral (counting horizontally from the left edge to the right edge) may record the length of the cycle. This appears in two possible ways: (1) as the cycle moves from minor to major standstill over 9 to 10 years, the extreme position of the lunar shadow shifts over the 10 grooves on the left side of the spiral; (2) the length of the full cycle (18.6 years) may be recorded by the count of 19 grooves across the full spiral. The number of grooves may also record a knowledge of the 19-year Metonic cycle. In addition the passage of the shadow edge through the far right groove of the spiral may record the midpoint of the declination cycles of the sun and moon.

I'm thinkin' about it, Vision! Every hour of every day. Even at night, as I stand before the toilet straining to push urine through the constriction of my enlarging prostate.
