1. On diversity:
  (from a gentle conversation between Angltred and Dongerous)
>>hey....it's diversity that makes the world go around, isn't it? >:-}

>No, actually diversity is what causes wars.
You're both right. That's why warfare is cyclic ;-)

2. On relativity:
  (commenting on a 2-3 month old forum topic)
Hey, everyone knows that all you have to do to reverse time is go in
circles in the reverse direction fast enough.  It was well documented
in Chris Reeves' first Superman movie, which I'm told was a true story.
Superman flew either around the Earth or Marlon Brando's belly (I
forget which) to accomplish.  I think that is why some folks try to
play records backwards. Certainly, what they have to say about the
experience seems to be (much, much!) younger than their age.

3. On anti-matter:
  (re: very recent posts on Covers)
Can you imagine the implosion that would occur if KaTe and Tom Waits
covered each other's Red Shoes songs, and then they were both played
at max volume in the same room?  Can a certain mix of sound waves
actually cause the start of the formation of a black hole? Or is that
just acoustic alchemy?  Maybe if they were played backwards......

Enough time on the outside. I need to crawl back into my Orgone box to
work some more on my proof that pi is a rational number.  Just don't
tell anyone until I'm done, OK.  Shhh! I hear Nurse coming...........
