I think the future of science is in the hands of Artificial Intelligence. The problem with humans is that our memory is too limited and our life span is too short. It's impossible for one scientist to be current in all fields of science, but I think that's exactly what we need to make major...

DVS, thanks for your interesting reply. I don't believe that socialism really equals economic slavery or hinders people at excelling AND being rewarded for outstanding achievement. Look at Sweden, which is de-facto a socialist welfare state, not a state with collective ownership. It's one...

So where are all the remote viewers when a child gets abducted?

Entropy tends towards a maximum, where no exchanges of any kind of energy are possible. It's called the "heat death of the universe" as implied in the second law of thermodynamics. But wouldn't that also be the state of maximum equilibrium or uniformity? A.k.a. perfect order? Am I getting lost...

Thanks for your replies.

DVS wrote: "Let's face it, there are always pros and cons when it comes to these economic philosophies." Yes, I agree. There is no perfect system, because we human beings are flawed. But there are systems that encourage and facilitate greed and there are other socio-economic concepts that are...

dB, It's done: https://www.theparacast.com/forum/political-discussion-moved-from-starcke-thread-t5271.html?p=70567

Please post your replies here. Thank you, swatcher

Walter Starcke: What am I missing? OP, I know I'm totally off topic here, but this will be my last post about Goldman Sachs. Blacknight, First I want to apologize for sounding a bit harsh. I had a bad night yesterday and it reflected in the post. I applaud you for not responding in the...

Walter Starcke: What am I missing? dB, May I ask you a question? Why do you and most Americans always sound apologetic when socialism is mentioned? I don't get it? Is there really something evil about it that I'm overlooking? I wasn't brought up in the US, so I'm really curious. May I...

Walter Starcke: What am I missing? Blacknight, We're going in circles here. You don't seem to be able to understand my point of view and that's fine with me. It just bugs me that you deliberately chose not to address my main issue that GS repaid pennies on the dollar. You honestly...

Yep, I have the floaters and the "grid", too. But I'm able to completely tune it out. Funny, I never considered it odd. I thought everybody has it. Just as a side: did you know that different races have different structures of the optic nerve? All the best, swatcher

I was reading about the Newman Free Energy machine. Sometimes it's so easy to spot a crook. The last line made me chuckle: "This guy is the poster child of Robert Park's book Voodoo Science. I recommend reading it for the full story. Basically all Newman's done is make a high voltage (about...

The total disorder in the universe, as measured by the quantity that physicists call entropy, increases steadily over time. Also, the total order in the universe, as measured by the complexity and permanence of organized structures, also increases steadily over time. — Freeman Dyson ( Synopsis...

Hi DrLogic, I find your contributions to the forum very interesting. Do you happen to have a degree in physics? I have some questions about entropy. Google leads me to nowhere and I don't have a physicist in my circle of friends. Just curious ... All the best, Swatcher

I was working out in Mar Vista park at 09:45am when I looked up and saw a bright object in the sky. I first thought that it was a very bright star, but then it slowly moved. It first moved North towards Santa Monica and then changed directions and moved at a slow pace to the South. It was a...

Blacknight, Thank you for your reply. It looks to me you're buying the corporate PR-spin hook, line and sinker. Your take on GS is flawed. Of course Goldman Sachs has repaid the government loan with interest, AFTER they were propped up & allowed to become the fifth biggest US bank and...

Blacknight, So who was the recipient of all that bailout money? Was it Joan six pack down the street who can't make the mortgage anymore, or maybe some corporation that has recently announced an enormous quarterly profit? Goldman Sachs Posts Record Profit, Beating Estimates (Update4) -...

I enjoyed the show. The guests had an interesting take on ghosts. When I went to their website I found the photographic evidence "questionable" to put it mildly.

Yes, that kind of show would be interesting!
