Some guy is studying the preCambrian explosion: http://groups.google.com/group/sci.physics/browse_frm/thread/977749a910341dbb and I've shared this idea there. - Tim

my format is just self-publishing, but always responding (top-posting) to the subjectum. Tom Gold's theory hasn't been tested, only it has; the oilcos just haven't realeased the C14/C12 ratio of their "fingerprints of adjacent holes." no oil is "Fossilized Fuel TM;" that is nothing, but a tradename, with no technical significance (unless, you consdier, "sediments pile-up in the ocean, and their own weight creates hydrocarbons," to be a theory .-) of course, Earth is growing, but this depends not only on falling- in space-junk, but the biota of the outermost layers & the noosphere.... I don't see what the problem is with plate tectonics, over-all, although "currents in the mantle" is a known absurdity, from the seismic data (on the other hand, there are so many weird pahses of rocks at temperature & pressure, like ice .-) volcanos produce huge amounts of CO2, and CFCs and so on. > Actually I think, that oil is not fossilized biomass, but comes from > deep inside in the inner earth.

I like UD's _Math.Cranks_, because, in his chapter on fermatistes, he only made one mistake, that I can find, now, and he had acknowledged it, when I told him. also, he seems to have left numbertheory, out, and that's one of the four, the true meaning of "higher arithmetic." > http://www.ams.org/notices/201005/rtx100500608p.pdf > author would be in not including Geometry explicitly as part of > mathematics: "So that there is no confusion, let me say that by > 'mathematics' I mean algebra, trigonometry, calculus, linear algebra, > and so on: all those subjects beyond arithmetic." thusNso: textbooks are often *generically* bad glosses on the discoveries in the original monographs, or simply pedantic workbooks. the real empty set, to me, is those who attempt proofs, without any grounding in elementary geometrical & numbertheory proofs -- see wlym.com. and, recall, it was Liebniz who gave the generic format of "iff," which is necessity & sufficiency, used meaningfully in various ways in natural language. the New Math following upon General Bourbaki was a silly thing, since you *need* natural language (and diagrams etc.) to make ready analogies & metaphors for your work. such that, the glaring example of Bourbakism was perhaps Russell's illinguistic "paradoxes" -- whence "silly" deploys from over-reliance on Aristotle's syllogisms! --Stop BP's capNtrade rip-off; call Waxman & tell him, we need a small *tax* on carbon emmissions, instead of "let the arbitrageurs raise the price of CO2 as much as they can -- free trade, free beer, free dumb!" http://wlym.com |
