So. Stuff and other stuff...

[lithera]

Thank you Lyssa! That rules. I've wanted one of those for awhile and never would have bought one for myself. It was a most excellent birthday present. I made happy squeaky noises.

Speaking of birthday presents, I need to go shopping for all of the other birthday people. (I hvae a vague idea of what I'm getting everyone.) Remember everyone - March 27th! Birthday party! Bring yourselves, bring drink, bring smiles!

So, I now have a much better idea of what the layout of Tacoma really looks like. I also know that Mike's car isn't as much of a pain to drive as I would have thought it would be. Maybe this weekend I'll take the bus down to the Hoodsport store in Tacoma and grab a few bottles. Mmmmmmm. Wine. Not that Mike and Leigh don't have enough of it available to me anyway... Speaking of which, I wish them well on their journey. It should be an interesting trip.

I packed everything yesterday saying to myself, "Don't forget your boots, don't forget your boots." So, of course, I forgot my boots. Go me.

Also, unfortunately, my bus pass does not work in Tacoma for the connecter bus I need to get to the express I take into Seattle. So, I'm going to have to remember to carry bus fare with me. Bleh.

Here is something that will make your head stretch. A lovely mix of science, religion and philosophy. I need to read it again when I'm not rushing to do things.

And sometimes, you know, sometimes things, webpages and such, update just too slow. It can be torture to wait for things. Not that I mind so much. I not really an instant gratification person, sometimes being denied is more interesting btu for work I'd like it to be a little faster, thanks.

I'm tempted to get the book...

From the article, I'm not sure if the problems I see are due to Beaumann or the contributing writer, Dale Short.

Either the author or the reporter seriously mangled the science involved, but they do have some interesting ideas. I think the biggest implicit leap they make that bothers me is treating Light - all of light in existance - as a single entity. Beauman is also making several other logical leaps, such as relying on his childhood assumptions of a "loving God", which doesn't closely relate to the "three omnis" that he claims as the isomorphism betweem "Light" and his concept of "God".

I've seen this done before, and better. I have a few books on quantum physics and philosophy that I can dig out for you.

Hmmmmm. Interesting. I'd be interested in reading them, though I know, for the most part, the science is quite easily out of my sphere of comfortable knowledge.
