From wikipedia. An Euclidean space 4-dim cube, rotating in the fifth space. This idea of more than three dimensions may intrigue some, but it is quite simple, really. How many dimensions there are in "reality", we don't know, since we don't know what reality is. My guess is, there are more than two. Some individuals refer to time as beeing the fourth dimension. "Really! How many seconds equal a yard?" I use to ask.

The board




Hur i helvete kan du skicka en kommentar på tyska, när texten är engelsk.
-------------------------------------------------------------------


I dislike the attack on the ceo. The law against prostitution blames the John - not the whore. Is it not the same in this case? The Board, who gave him this extremely high salary, is to blame. They have no sense of figures, and should be replaced. But it seems these persons think they are immune to revision. In a relatively short time, the board has fired two ceo:s. Don't they know who they employ? They try to focus on the fusion with 'Den Danske Post'. Who asked for this fusion? I could have understood foundation of an European post service, but this is not a step in that direction. Instead it is preparation for a future privatisation.

Poverty

The CEO of Swedish Mail Service, "Pösten", will refrain from his salary, which equals the income of 45 postmen, or seven times the remuneration of the prime minister. The reason of his payback, is that he does not want to seem greedy.











A greedy employee who will not pay his salary back.

Gwendolyn



About Gwendolyn
She is not my mistress, nor my sister. She is just a creation of my imagination. The crazy general Bourbaki may have existed, but Gwendolyn has not. If this upsets you, me not telling the truth, I beg you to forgive me! This is called fiction. A mirage of reality.

Peace

There are few remaining days in charge for the president. He declared war against terrorism. Is it possible for him to sign a peace treaty now? The leader of terrorism, Saddam Hussein is decapitated, and Bush won the war. Did he not?

reality

It should be obvious, that the tiny subatomic particles have no impact on our everyday lifes. The latter are built upon belief of what is true. Man has existed on this planet hundreds of thousand years. The quarks have been known for a few decades only. Man's primtive mind can not handle the knowledge of what the world really is made of. Deep thinking will make him most unhappy. So he has always invented his own reality. In these days we have so many technical facilities that help our phantasy, and reality has been reduced to a video game, more or less. So when people use the word "reality", I always ask "your reality or mine?". If we don't accept the idea of several realities, we are not able to understand the John, the capitalist or the suicide bomber. They live in realties I'd rather see eliminated. I can not abolish thoughts from my fellowman's mind. I can just step aside and hope they will not harm me.

pi

Hideki Yukawa predicted the pion in 1935. Inside the nucleus of an atom these particles should help the harons sticking together, he reasoned. The particle could not be detected by its mass or otherwise, since it travels a very short distance and and exists very briefly. This is is the principle of inaccuracy that Heisenberg brought to us. If we had a complete emptiness, some energy could still momentarily exist there, if we can not detect it. Physics is about things that can be measured. Hope you see the paradox! However this short-time-existence against the first principle of thermodynamics seems to hold. A particle like the one Yukawa had predicted was found by Cecil Powell in 1947: the pi-meson. It contains two quarks and is electrically charged or neutral. pion (image from the Internet)

mu

When trying to explain evolution, few authors have considered the radiation from outer space. Every second lots of tiny particles travel through our bodies. Is it not plausible, that at least some of them will cause chemical reactions? Neutrinos will probably accomplish nothing. The muons, on the other hand, are more likely to interact. They have a lot of energy and are electrically charged. What they bring is not known, but we can not exclude their participation in life processes. The process of 'A forming B' may not be spontaneous, but when the system obtains energy from the surroundings, it will be possible. And we know sunshine causes cancer. It is a bad evolution, I admit, but it is still a transformation brought from the outside world. So if there is an 'astro physicist/ biologist' reading this, we would welcome your comments! The gates are open again.






(Fundamentalists need not give us their opinion, since we already know it quite well.)

Correction


We said earlier, that we knew everything about the physical world. This is not the case. We had forgotten the black holes created by LHC - Large Hadrone Collider. The machine in Geneva is mended for the time beeing, but when it starts, it will create a fourth dimension, in which the gravity will be much stronger than in the common three. This will eventually make a black hole, consuming all earth and maybe the entire universe. Some say so. Others deny it. Newton calculated the end of our world to 2040 or so. The "big crunch" may come earlier. So get the most out of every day, and love thy fellowman, since this might be the end. Time will cease and every distance will shrink to zero. There is nothing you can do about it.

Appendix III

Obviously matter consists of several other particles, than we stated earlier, and the Z and g particles are questionable. And what about the Higgs' particle? We like intermediate vector bosons. So please, ignore 'appendix II'!

Appendix ii

Inside matter
These are the only particles contained in matter. What builds up voidness is not known. However, we can't know everything. Don't you agree?

  1. World concists of atoms and emptiness

  2. In the beginning the creator created his creation

  3. There are no such things as aliens or men i black

  4. There is no speed greater than c

Amazing facts



I heard on the radio today, that when certain parts of the brain are removed, the personality will change. There must be some connection between the brain and the soul, was the conclusion made by the speakers voice. This demands further investigation...

Maybe Gwendolyn can make something out of it.


Actually research has come much longer, but it is hard to present it in a popular intelligble way. Maybe this programme tells us, what the voice thinks of our ability of understanding. Psychology is the science of 'psyché', which is a substance yet not described by physicists, but this does not mean, that it does not exist. All I can say is, that I am personally very sceptic to this "soul". You may call me a moron, but I want exact measurements, before I accept things.

The future

There is not much petrol. We have to get used to alcohol for driving our cars, boats and planes. Is there infinite amounts of alcohol? I certainly hope so. Otherwise we have to concider our demands for transportation. Is it really necessary to fly to and fro across the earth? Couldn't we stroll in Central Park instead of Saltzburg? I can not tell. Anyway, the future will differ from the past and present.

Snowflakes

No two snowfakes are alike according to Bentley . Let us make some calculations! How many flakes and how many possiblities are there? To discuss this, we must define probablity. When a state is certain, the probabilty is = 1. If the state is unthinkable, p=0.

Illusion of reality

The second video above is from BBC4. It will take almost one hour to watch. It is worth enduring to get a summary of modern physics. It is recommended studying further on sites dedicated to physics. This is about life, art and philosophy. What is reality? If the physicist can't tell, who can? Is it possible for everyone to create his own reality, like Gwendolyn. It seems likely. I am frustrated. So much science and so little knowledge. :-/

Gwendolyn revisited


When I asked Gwendolyn, if her life turned out the way she had expected, she answered me: "Yes of course. What else could it have been?" Understanding the brain of this individual is very hard. Maybe we will manage to do this in thousand years or so.

Large numbers



What is a "large number"? In a classroom there are 24 desks. There are 24 pupils in the class. There are approximately 1 mol ways of placing these pupils, with one at each desk. One mol is not a large number. If instead there would have been one mol of desks, and one mol pupils, there would have been a larger number of possibilities. Math is about knowing if two numbers are equal or not. It is not about knowing if a number is large.
_________

This is also connected to probability, P. P=actual state/number of possibilities. The spot where you are standing, is one of billions of spots on the surface of the earth. It is highly unlikely, that you stand where you stand. Of course, this is rubbish. Still some idiots try to prove the existence of an intelligent creator by means of statistics. When something is an actual fact, there is no need to calculate. Statistics is means of predicting the future - not writing history. If you, honored reader, is one of the creationists, I suggest you reread your book. If the existence of God could be proven mathematically, I am sure God would destroy the world and create a new one, where his existence could not be proven. Faith and knowledge may not interfere. That is the dogma of an inspired book Gwendolyn will write next year.Lady Gwendolyn waiting for inspiration.

Climbing



I talked to my elder sun today. He is a climber climbing steep walls indoors. He asked for my super 8 repelling tool. He intends to practice outdoor climbing. This made me curious. "Are you going to Norway?" I asked. "No, to Kanalklippan." he answered. Children of the city climb in the city.

Kanalklippan

I would prefer more calm routes in the wild mountains.

Free will



FINAL STATE MACHINE


It is claimed that man has a free will. It is also claimed that a machines can not possibly have a free will. I disagree.

I was looking for information about FSM (Finite State Machine), and landed on the site of The Church of The Flying Spaghetti Monster.

My point, which I am slowly approaching, is: What the hell is "free will"?



Disability

Of course you can not choose the impossible. But you don't know in advance, what is possible.

Ateism


Jag skrev i en tidigare blogg om en näshörning, som inte existerade. Det kommer mig att tänka på dagens talare i "Vid dagens början". Hon var från Humanisterna - en organisation som inte tycker att Gud behövs. Själva Guds existens är inget som har diskuterats med framgång. Jag kan ju om jag vill förneka näshörnigens existens eller försöka bevisa den. Fast det leder inte någon vart. Om jag påstår att existensen leder till att vi måste leva på ett visst sätt, så kan detta samband diskuteras. Vad humanisterna menar, är att individen har ansvar för sitt eget liv, vilket den som tror på Gud också skulle kunna hävda. Dock inte fundamentalisten och den som tror på ödet. Att avprogrammera sådana torde vara svårare än att avvänja heroinister.
Den heliga skrift är en stark drog.

How big?

I like metrology, as you probably know. Knowing quantity is essential when making decisions: "You strain out a gnat but swallow a camel"(Matthew 23:23,24)
This is my latest problem:
How much air is there?








Is there more water in the hydrosphere* than dry air in the atmosphere**?

*1.35 × 10^21 kg

**5.1352×10^18 kg

___________________

Yes, more than thousand times.

_____________________


You checked it out at Wikipedia's. I expected you to think for yourself. Anyway, what I did not say explicitly was that I asked for the mass in kilogrammes. If I had asked for the volume, it would have been a serious problem. There is a correlation between mass and volume called density. When the density is zero, there is no air. Obviously there is no limit. As you rise to the universe. the air pressure will decrease. Nowhere will it be zero. Even the moon has an atmosphere. If there is a void volume in space, how do we measure it? Normally it is hard to detect zero. What is 'darkness' and 'silence' in absolute terms? Of course we can say "there is zero rhino present in the room right now". But that is not a metrological statement.The non-existing rhino

At home - at last





For a long time I have been travelling to and fro. Now I am at Sky City, Arlanda, Sigtuna, Sweden. This is not my home (I have no home), but I enjoy walking the streets of this air station. It is not like Tempelhof, that I admit. Still it is the best airport in my neighbourhood.

Uppåt värre


Stödet för sjuksköternas strid är begränsad till Vpartiet. Det beror antagligen på att politiker vill förhålla sig neutrala, och låta arbetsmarknadens parter sköta avtalsrörelsen. Onekligen vore det skojigare om det fanns ett Hparti, som gick ut och sade:
"Nej, det har vi inte råd med. Sjuksköterskorna är så många, att en så stor löneökning skulle leda till för stora konsekvenser för samhället." Det finns inget som hindrar övriga fackliga organisationer att uttala sig, men de har valt att tiga.
