If you build a relation between the time it takes
a photon to pass the size of a nuclei - and the
expected time since the big bang - you are at
a relation of 10^42.
If you take the smallest size we can imagine
(where geometry makes some sense) - thats
again something of the order of an nuclei - and
relate it to the expected size of the universe -
you end up again at a relation of 10^42.

This raises the question why we calculate
in dynamic ranges exceeding that one of time
and space.....

BTW:

IT IS 42. nothing else.

I would expect that an exposure of 20 beers a day
for more than 3 days would let me start a similar thread.
By damping the feedback of the neurons by all the beer,
the brain itself starts to operate in a more parallel way
than its normally used to.
The typical effect is that you are getting more and more
suprised by what you are saying - same with the people
who have to listen;-).

Hmmm I thought "the secret to life is  32" ,HHGTTG 2005

Was it not 42 ! ?

 Sorry, didn't get as far as the second page ! !

@One

  Are you referring to the Ether-Vortex Theory?
If you are I can vouch to the effect that you may be on to something big.

Welcome to the party mramos!

I am a Delphi software dude. And since the place of Delphi was where ancient greeks once worshipped the god Apollo I guess then I have tenuous connection with the Universe!

It's a stretch I know...but what the hell !

@guys

Please keep your comments civil. That is, if you want the same respect from us if you ever come up with any ideas.

@One

I warned you in advance that there would be noise but should have said bad noise and bad taste.

I will ask a few questions referring to what you have said.

1) This basically means protons and electrons are like subatomic miniature monopole sphere magnets.

Q1: I thought monopoles, meaning only having one pole, does not exist?

2) The acid physically takes each proton, and electron out of the metal, and they automatically, instantly travel to the negative and positive terminals of the battery, ready to be used as energy.

Q2: If these are taken out of the metal, why does the metal not fall apart?

Q3: Why does the battery need to be re-charged?

Q4: The acid itself is also made of the same elements as the metal. Why does the acid win and the metal lose, besides valence.

3) A question I often ask.

Q5: What are positive and negative polarities?

Hi all,

Here is some info on the Ether-Vortex Theory.

 With the exception of radiant pressure, there are only three elementary forces that act at a distance; gravitational, electrostatic, and magnetic forces.
The ether-vortex theory seems to furnish the answer as to how three such forces can act independently of each other in the same space and at the same time.
 
 According to the latest views, the force of gravity is caused by a pressure of the ether, rather than by a movement thereof.
If there is present only one body, and it is spherical in form, the ether will be in the same condition on all sides of the body. IF, however, there are two bodies close to each other, as in the case of a double star, then the condition of spherical symmetry will no longer exist, but instead, there will only be axial symmetry.

 The ether currents of the two bodies will then organize themselves into the form of a bipolar vortex, similar to the field around an electron; but on a much larger scale.
The effect of this vortex will be to create a difference in pressure on the proximate and remote sides of the two bodies.
The ether in the space between the two bodies will be at a lower pressure than at their remote sides; and such a difference in pressure will push the two bodies toward each other, and cause them to fall into each other, unless they are in orbital movement about each other, so that centrifugal force will keep them apart.

  Electric and magnetic forces are caused, not by pressure of the ether, but by movement of the ether in the form of whirls, or eddies.
These exist on a much smaller scale and are more localized than gravitational fields of force.
Since whirls and eddies can exist regardless of the pressure of the ether, it is readily seen why electric and magnetic forces can act independently of gravitational force; and vice versa.

  There now remains only the superposition of electric and magnetic fields upon each other, either coaxially, or transversely of each other (as we have in the Great Pyramid).
In this consideration, let us consider first, their coaxial superposition.
  An electrostatic field consists of a flow of ether in a direct line from protons in the positive electrode, to electrons in the negative electrode, and then back again to the protons through outside paths.
If the electrodes are made of iron, and are magnetized, with the N and S poles facing each other, then the magnetic field will consist of a rotation of the ether around their axis of symmetry; and such a rotating or spinning movement of the ether can occur simultaneously with the circulatory movement that corresponds to the electrostatic field.
A magnetic field, can, therefore, be superimposed directly upon a coaxial electrostatic field.

  If the magnetic field is superimposed transversely upon the electrostatic field, then both fields will be distorted, but not destroyed. The circulating ether which constitutes the electrostatic field will no longer retain its axial symmetry, but it will, nevertheless, continue to circulate.
Similarly, the rotating ether which constitutes the magnetic field, will pursue irregular and non-circular paths; but it will continue to rotate. A magnetic field can, therefore, be superimposed transversely in any direction upon an electrostatic field, without interfering with the latter.
 
  An example of the transverse field effect is demonstrated in a pyramid. In this case, there is a shaped electrostatic field due to the structure of the pyramid, and the action of the earth?s magnetic field on the resultant shaped ether flow. The result of these effects would be the formation of a rather large ether vortex in the pyramid.
  The ether-vortex casts some interesting probabilities on possible interplanetary travel.
 
  Gravitational forces and inertial forces are due to interaction between material bodies and the ether. Instead of trying to control a body by acting upon it directly, it may be possible to control it more effectively by acting upon the ether, which in turn controls behavior of the body.
A change in the state of rest, or motion, of a body is always caused by a difference of ether pressure on opposite sides of the body.
Thus, in the case of two celestial bodies which attract each other gravitationally, the ether pressure in the space between them is less than on their remote sides.
  Such a difference of pressure could be neutralized if some of the ether could be transformed from the high-pressure side to the low-pressure side.
Since the ether is a fluid, it should be capable of being moved from one place to another.
An ordinary bar magnet will not serve this purpose because the N and S poles are mirror images of each other; it being now well established that the ether circulates around the magnet, and not out of one pole and into another.
If a series of magnets be arranged end-to-end so as to form a closed ring, there will be an external ether circulating, similar in form to a smoke ring.
If two of these cores be placed face-to-face against each other, in such a manner that their circulating ether currents are in rolling contact; that is in rolling contact with each other, they will form a large scale replica of either the vortex proton, or the vortex electron; depending on whether the ether in the space between them flows inwardly, or outward.
An electrostatic condenser also produces a similar transfer of ether.
If protons and electrons are dipolar vortices with two vortex rings in rolling contact with each other, then in a charged condenser there will be a unidirectional flow of ether from the protons of the positive charge, to the electrons of the negative charge; the return flow being either around the edges of the plates, or between the molecules of the dielectric.

  These magnetic and electrostatic devices can be combined in many different ways.
By the proper arrangement, and by the use of personal controls, it should be possible to maintain a regulated flow of ether through such a system in any direction; into or out of it, so as to change the ether pressure in and around the system.
Perhaps the Egyptians used such a system to transport the huge blocks of stone in the Great Pyramid.

  A comment will probably be that such a system would be contrary to the law of conservation of energy; a violation of the first law of thermodynamics.
This law, however, applies only to isolated systems, and a process that involves the transfer of ether to and from the outside, is hardly an isolated system.
There is much we still do not know about the law of conservation of energy.

  In spite of all the glamour of modern technology, the orthodox science of today is still unable to draw a single plausible picture, or diagram, of even the simplest elementary particle, or to give any intelligible explanation for any of the forces that act at a distance.

  The ether-vortex theory would give us a new method of approach, and may open up a new field for experimental research.
First, we should try to find some method of producing regions of increased, or decreased, ether pressure, and then study the effect of such conditions upon the elementary particles of matter.

  If we merely continue along the present lines of thought, then the problem of producing an anti-gravity device will probably never be solved.
It may be troublesome to change over from a nucleated atom to a vortex atom, but it will be still more troublesome ten or twenty years from now, and eventually the change will have to be made, for there is a continually increasing amount of evidence that is piling up against the nuclear theory.
 
  It is significant that the physics profession has never made any effort to attack the new vortex theory of the atom.
Any evidence that can be produced in support of the nuclear theory is equally applicable to the vortex theory, and the latter can explain many things that the nuclear theory cannot explain at all.
It is only the vortex theory that has been able to offer any suggestions as to how we may proceed in our efforts to solve the problems of biocosmic energy and of anti-gravity.
