Existence is, of course, a mysterious thing to us humans. Many would suggest that the mystery is veiled from us, as though it might somehow be seen through with immense determination/effort. Personally I have to imagine that we simply aren't capable, no matter for the want of trying. That regardless...

I began this Quest on 29/07/2000, a windy/wet Saturday evening when I was confronted by a whole window display brightly promoting JC's book here in Glastonbury. It was my dearly departed friend's birthday & I bought her the book knowing she'd love it. My date of birth is 19/01/1954....so, as of ...

Puuuuuling this back on course if I may dare? I have waxed previously in the past, that you's good folk appear to have zero understanding & therefore appreciation, of the creature you attempt to track down. That's quite important don't you think?...'cos it would sure as hell mean that none of yo...

Re enough room... I imagine this being a thing of Principle if anything at all....& that all the usual/known rules apply to it still in terms of mass acting around an axle. It's just a different axle! Simply imagine Fig One with the two swaying spokes extended outwards/made longer....the longer ...

It's coming up to a quarter of a century since I first became enslaved to the pursuit of PM & throughout that time I've always have the strongest/strangest of feelings that this Quest of all Quests is destined? Like you's all, I've no idea if/how destiny comes to be a thing. But whatever the mag...

The following is my response to Agor95's question re a swaying tetrahedron asked in a previous thread of mine. It grew so extensive as to require its own separate thread but extensive as it is I do hope none will be put off...it's really as simple as simple could possibly be but as ever, putting it ...

Agor95....As to your thought experiment re my thought experiment, may I just first ask if I've understood you correctly please? As per the simple diagram...a disc perpendicular to its axle (a) that slants fully over until it's aligned along it's axle (b)....si? I ask because if that is correct then ...

Thank you for the replies...appreciated. Kinda sensing an attempt to drag me back to the excess weight we all know about tho'? However it be translated into English, I remain convinced that the `whatever` Bessler is referring to appertains to a motion that's engaged in adhering to some Principle of ...

Having never followed this thread & now unlikely to wade through the soon to be 100 pages of it, may I ask... Has anything at all been learnt/deduced/realised/discovered/advanced etc, in terms of the `know soon enough`statement of some 27mths back? Not a dig but a genuine question..'cos I'm not ...

I've vented previously re Bessler's excess weight statement & I haven't seen reason for changing my opinion.... That being that he mentions excess weight in the context of some motion that is perpetuating, having met the conditions to do so. He is not referring in any way to a wheel/axle & ...

Wtf?.....I posted re the thread....remember the thread...look up! Please don't even dare think to attempt to drag me into this most pathetic display of apparent arrested emotional development on the part of yourself & those who indulge along with you...'cos for sure you's aren't gonna be able to...

Don't suppose it's of the slightest interest to me...but what exactly is new that's worthy of mention please 'cos I'm not seeing it?
Where's the clean break?
And a blank slate!...that's the old board in its entirety surely?

Soooo....eccentrically1. If I have an A, in receipt of an input of energy that results in a max terminal speed of x rpm...then tilting this A to a B will have zero effect in terms of acceleration as A is already at max velocity? Nor will there be any change in that max velocity? The only effect/diff...

Thank you's for your efforts to assist. I think most are perhaps not seeing the simplicity here...the last two comments appear to see it best. Undoubtedly my fault....I'll try to simplify. I have a regular wheel, a disc on an axle & I give it a shove around. I then force/bend the disc so that it...

A simple question I'm sure so maybe just an even more simple person having to ask it! I have a horizontal axle A with a vertical beam sat centrally upon it...and the same again (B) 'cept the beam is not vertical, not at a right angle to the axle but slanted/angled to some other degree. In terms of a...
