Troy Posted March 13, 2014 Report Share Posted March 13, 2014 Cynique when you spoke about Neil Degrass Tyson in it made me think of Richard Feynman. He is just a fascinating dude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cynique Posted March 14, 2014 Report Share Posted March 14, 2014 Interesting, indeed, how an answer to a question can feed upon itself and expand like a pyamid. Maybe that's why pyramids have a prominence in mysticism. Feynman's dissertation also kind of illlustrates the inadequacy of trying to capture reality in language, which is why the simple phrase "it is what it is" is really profound. When responding to the question "WHY?, one word can be the gateway to infinity. "BECAUSE"... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delano Posted March 19, 2014 Report Share Posted March 19, 2014 There's a few books on Feynman and a DVD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delano Posted March 19, 2014 Report Share Posted March 19, 2014 He has working on the bomb, with the other giants of physics. The said in a room full of smart guys he's a really smart guy. One if the things he said was he developed a really good toolkit. And he could think of q problem from basic principles. Kind of like reverse the formulae for electricity are the inverse of magnetism. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troy Posted March 20, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 Del! I trust all is well. I wish Feynman was alive today to to see what he could come up with knowing what we know about particle physics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delano Posted March 20, 2014 Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 Hi Troy, Things are well, the readings are picking up. Kids are well. And I'm in a relationship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troy Posted March 20, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 Del, I presume you mean a new relationship. I was not aware that you were out of your other relationship. In any event, I'm sure it is all good. Congratulations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delano Posted April 9, 2014 Report Share Posted April 9, 2014 Yes I'm in Brisbane, I've been up here for about ten days. Will meet the parents at Sophia birthday on Thursday. Thanks, Del 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
