Ha! Nick, it seems you and I share in a common note of self-reflection. Hope the wheel work keeps you happy, even as I enjoy the videos you post.

rlortie, If you have been outside and are cold, and open the door to a warm house to enter... I feel a warm breeze of air strike my face. That being said, you say "in a gradient, energy flows from positive to negative". As in a battery, or such. (even though the electron is arbitrarily lab...

Grimer, so you're saying (in translated form) that it IS like a concave lens - - > )( BUT that the latter parentheses is rotated in the third dimension 90*... sorta like a four leaf clover... with two opposed leaves pushed down; while perpendicular to them, the other two (opposing) leaves are pulled...

From wiki-tionary: Anticlastic = "(of a surface) curved in opposite ways in two directions; saddle-shaped" wikipedia has no articles referring to this phenomena (that I could find). Thus, please fill us in a little more Grimer. PS - I'm assuming that's then like a concave lens? - - > )( vs...

Do we think the US (or other) govt watches this forum? I believe that when we mention words like "Ir*q war" and "Nuclear Mis*iles" we increase the risk thereof. But mostly I believe they mostly ignore us. First, mostly because the majority of us are garage guys and tinkerers with...

Gill, let's try one more perspective game. 1) take two spheres and overlap them so that their circumference touches each other's centers... that's your typical 3D vesica... and we are trying to definitively determine what it's shape is. 2) since we couldn't figure that out, let's take the same two s...

Gill... nice attempt at working with the sand-box, I hadn't thought of working with images of resin as well... neat. 1) you're sticking of the spheres(globes) 1/3 of the diameter into the sand is only approximate. Pi is transcendental, and the point of intersection of the globes won't be exactly rat...

Gill... I'm interested in what "religious text" you are using (especially as it seems you refer to multiple ones). If you're referring to the Bible... I'm not sure how genesis and you're translation thereof line up... care to explain a bit further or provide a link? As to Sacred Geometry.....

Gill... 1) take the inner, over-lapping part of two 2D circles (vesica pisces), and you have a 2D lens. Now if you rotate the LENS (through the third dimension) you get one thing... a rugby ball. 2) but if you take the inner, over-lapping part of two 3D spheres , you have a different structure... on...
