What's troublesome about that? thus: well, if Christopher Walken will only do weird/creepy but not bad, as I just read in teh Sunday NYTimes, then so can Bill Shatner; eh?... of course, the "bad" is in the denouement or resolution. (at the moment, HSJ is just letting me waste my time on him, which *might* be a good thing .-) as for interesting, it could be used as a vehicle to promulgate math, like the "purposefully mistaken calculus instructor," more or less (because, I hypothesize that it is really an alias for Obama, jerking us around for some reason). > Hmm. You'd need someone who can do humourless/irrational, while making thus: the only comment is that "the quaternion people" did not "do" any thing "to the scalar;" Gibbs took quaternions apart into two operations, using all of the nomenclature (and not adding any, I think), except for "imaginaries." thus: well, if the microphone is your ear, then it is commonplace observation; two ears, you can even locate the emmitter, immediately. so, what is the *same* about the waves & the particles? thus: NCLB/Come the Rapture; won't matter about Babel-on! > What's the "No Child Left Behind" *Alphabet*? thus: vous etes tres pathetique, monsieur Valev. comme-ca, quelle es problematique avec <<dilation doo temps>> -- faites-vous supposez, cette est le meme chose a journe' <<een>> temps? > http://astronomy.ifrance.com/pages/gdes_theories/einstein.html > "Le deuxième test classique donne en revanche des inquiétudes. > Historiquement, pourtant, l'explication de l'avance du périhélie de > Mercure, proposé par Einstein lui-même, donna ses lettres de noblesse > à la relativité générale.
