I believe that there is a definite greatness in being able to
show everyday people how sometimes difficult, often
complex scientific ideas actually work.

So this guy, along with people like Isaac Asimov and
Carl Sagan, is without a doubt one of the greatest
astronomers to ever "keep looking up"!

Space must flow
As the wind must blow,
The wind doth blow
If we see it or no.

Space doth flow
If we need it or no,
For if it don't,
Where the heck'd we go?

Lots of reasons more people looked up in the distant past. They liked
lying on their backs,and looking at what they thought of as heaven. Much
clearer sky. No TV to watch. Comets,and lots more shooting stars. They
even could get lucky(like me) and find an iron meteorite.  It is
possible every one was an astronomer in those good old days of "clear
skies" Todays dim sky creates more couch potatoes.That creates fat
bodies,and brains. Reality is in this spacetime Astronomy is a TV NOVA
show. I call it virtual astronomy.  Bert

The last place to to be laying on your back to look up at the stars is
on the ground in Florida.      In the dark you could sit on an fire ant
mound.  They are there in the thousands,and it would take them 26
seconds to bite you 50 times,and 50 bites means your as good as dead.
Best place is Look Out Mountain outside of Denver.        You can drive
just about to the top. Denver's city lights are far below off to your
left,and smog covered.   Bert

Not to mention gators, snakes, and poisonous spiders!

Here there are too many damn clouds.  I've missed the planetary
conjunction because of them.  It's raining again today.  It rarely
rains after July 4th though, but often on that holiday of course.  We
usually get 6 weeks of summer before the fall rains set in!

Hi Double-A I'm on my back porch reading your weather report. Having a

Rain coming down in a solid sheet. Gators now can't tell where the shore
of lakes are any more. Big dogs give them a small dinner.  We are having
an out break of rabies,and I'm wondering if gators can get rabies? That
could make for a very bad situation. Cold blooded rabies.  Go figure

I had a big collie when I was a boy.  He would go burrow under anything
he could to escape lightning!

He was also gun shy.  Just the click of a gun bolt would send him
cowering.  Still I tried to take him hunting with me.  But the first
time I would shoot at anything with my 22 rifle, he would be gone!

He also had this fetish about chasing airplanes.  Where we lived at the
time was right under the flight pattern of the jet airliners.  When one
would come over, the dog would go racing of through the woods, up and
down hills, trying to catch that jet!  He had beaten paths worn through
the woods from his frequent runnings!

Have you ever heard of such a thing?

I think that if you get close enough to a gator for him to bite you,
you are already in big trouble, rabies or not!

What's put the sharks on the bite in Florida?  Sounds like a boy was
fishing in the surf this morning and got his leg bit off!

Maybe they could change the name of Miami Beach to Shark Beach.  It
would help keep those pesky tourists away!  Ha! Ha!

G=EMC^2 Glazier - 28 Jun 2005 12:04 GMT
Hi Double-A  80% chance of rain again today.      Jacksonville beach has
the most shark attacks. I'm surprised Speilberg did not shoot Jaws
there. Many moons ago when scuba diving of Miami beach with the hotel
life guard we saw a big shark about 200 feet from us. We got to shore
"fast" and he rang a bell and everyone had to get out of the water.
This was before Jaws,but you can easily see parts of the book taken from
these real life scenarios.  I once read killer whales have sharks as
their arc enemy,and have yet to see them kill one.                Bert

Bert, I thought Florida was the "Sunshine State"!

Rain?  In a solid sheet?  This time of year?

I thought only we Oregonians had to endure year round rain!

G=EMC^2 Glazier - 28 Jun 2005 12:14 GMT
Hi double-A  Late spring,and all through the summer is the monsoon
season. That means lots of thunder storms an rain,just about every day.
That is why Florida is the lightning capital of the world. That is why
the NASA came up with July 13th to fly the Discovery. It is the heart of
the monsoon season. NASA is playing their con game. They have good
reason not to fly this piece of garbage,and they won't. That mother of
two I feel is safe and sound. I'll give NASA credit for that  Bert

Then I guess that "Sunshine State" motto is just a bit of false
advertising, huh?

Even here in rainy Oregon we usually get six weeks of uninterrupted
sunshine in the summer.

Hi nightbat  Seems we have BH, Gravastar,and you have your black comet.
I like the BH for it has a singularly. Mother nature uses this
singularity like  a chicken egg,and when the cells inside the chicken
egg reach there critical amount the egg pops open and out comes a chick.
This is relative to a BH reaching its critical mass of 6 trillion stars
and a universe is born. Without a singularity a BH has no meaning. It
would be a universe with no intelligent life,and that would be a big
waste of space and time(spacetime)  Bert

I thought you said a black hole had structure and a surface?

A singularity has no structure and no surface.  It takes up no space.
All it has is mass.

Make up your mind!

       Officer Bert doesn't understand he has been absorbing my
profound nightbat " Black Comet " indications for years but constantly
falling back on none real world black holes. You are correct Officer
Double-A and just try convincing Officer Bert of it because he keeps
apparently favoring the nightbat net " Black Comet " Universe creation
logic solution while claiming black hole singularity? It must be those
double boiler makers of his they make him see mixed up double. Ask him
if a comet has structure and surface and whether all his trillions of
star masses take up space, maybe then he'll get it?

G=EMC^2 Glazier - 29 Jun 2005 14:41 GMT
hi Double-A  I don't think mother nature will give me enough time to
think about the inner structure of a BH  between the surface and its
core. I can only say I like the idea of the exact gravity center of the
core having a singularity. The singularity could be there at the very
start of the implosion of the massive star,or only develop in the
trillion of a second the black hole has reached its critical mass of 6
trillion Suns.               My thinking ia lot of information is
lost(body that has collapsed) when forming a black hole.       I have
read much stuff by Hawking,Penrose,Wheeler,and friedmann,and even
nightbat would not have the nerve to tell these great thinkers that BH
are sci-fiction,and there is no reason to think similarities.
Similarities prove that GR is an incomplete theory. It goes blank on how
the universe began.  That is why my new theory has the first stage of a
universe taking place inside a Planck length. Only QM and the string
theory fit inside this sub-micro realm. Where measurements are a
trillion times faster than I( can stop a ray of light in the macro
realm)  Bert

       You still really don't get it Officer Bert do you, I'm the
reason the enigma resolution is at hand and it's the " Black Comet ".
For years I have told you there are no black holes Officer Bert, none,
not a real world possibility, your deep thinking let astray friends were
sci fi wrong get over it. Information is never Universe lost because
energy is per mathematical proof eternal.

       There is no evidence for string theory, none, get over it
Officer Bert, and there can be no origination for energy based Universe,
because it's eternal and always in one form or another.

G=EMC^2 Glazier - 29 Jun 2005 18:26 GMT
Hi nightbat  You are reading a lot more than I when viewing that potato
shaped comet Lookks more like one of those Mars moons to me. Looks more
like a large asteroid. I think you jumped on two words and they are
black,and comet. If Tempel 1 was round that would show it was a very
dense mass great gravity object in a small package. This is not the
case. It reflects light. Black because it is made of elements that are
black such as carbon,iron etc. It even radiates out  infrared photons.
So does granite rock because it is radio active(also is a dark rock.
What Tempel 1 is telling us is not all comets are alike,and that's goes
with not all ateroids are alike,and that goes with not all rock planets
are alike,and that goes with not all moons are alike etc. Tell me why
you relate this to my black holes?   Bert

       What ever the reason Officer oc the fun begins July 4th for
real. Officer Painius hit it on the mark and the fireworks of Universe
ancient comet make-up is now within scientific grasp. You complain of
some throwing the baby medium out with the bath water, keep your eye on
that found " Black Comet " baby, it's like no regular other.

       Officers Double-A and Painius already did Officer Bert, for
black holes are a non real world possibility. Listen, you're not to
really blame for your sci fi confusion for some of those prominent
scientist's are really responsible for misinterpreting the Einstein
presented math. Dr. Einstein never claimed the singularity paradox as
black hole for that came Ed Whitten and the rest of the sci fi folks
later. Even Hawking joined for 30 year multiverse fantasy until just
recently because of nightbat's einstein's mathematical energy eternal
reflected pronouncements. The comet chunk the scientist's found is just
a baby chip of the Mother massive " Black Comet ". Remember this small
comet piece is now in normal gravity field and gravitationally altered
from its original heavy gravity main body parent state. It only reflects
4% compared to a normal solar approaching white reflecting with tail
dispersing comet. About half the size of Manhattan Island but enough to
give the scientist's an internal glimpse of what the originating ancient
Mother is composed of. Tempel 1 has taken it lumps as it broke off and
fell long ago into normal gravity field. The evolved Mother " Black
Comet " is now a planet surrounded by water and massive end of fusion
cycle heavy concentrated core iron. Dr. Einstein and Dr. Tesla pondered
about it and humble nightbat key found it. Energy required for fantasy
black hole versus concentrated iron

       Yes most likely since they have the time and University paid
internet and computer access. Not to mention professional scientist or
researcher only member sites and some which require paid membership and
University member registration and affiliation requirements for gaining
view to listed papers. I know I learned from my Officers much like you
for instance Officer Double-A about your extinct volcano Mars theory and
comprehensive planetary reports with links, or Officer Bert's life
saving tubes. Officer oc's for Wolter's donut engine out of this
Universe theory, Officer Bohne's immense Star Folks related mermaid site
info, Officer Greysky's FTL iterations, Officer Painius science 101+ and
great poetry, including Officer Twitty's sweet talk. Officer Zinni's
right on time interesting frame directed net corrections, Officer
Luigi's checking up on Officer Bert's far out darts, Officer Uncle Al's
one liners, Officer hanson's never flub additions, and on and on.

What really made Hawking's retract from sci fi loss of info false black
hole imaginations is any bodies guess and very well the multi net
science group posters. If what you post makes sense and has logic folks
have a way of listening and absorbing what is important especially when
link relative knowledge reference pointing or affirming.

Why they would remove particular all science net posts pre 2000 like
nightbat's from google is another question. Perhaps too vital for
National Security reasons even if on the home front Officer oc still
feels Princess Darla is a fakeian with respectfully Officer Bohne right
behind.

OK, Spruce.

How'd you get that nickname, anyway?

Reminds me of a line from the classic novel, "Candy":

"Don't take any wooden organs."

How'd in happen, Bruce?
