Random Thoughts or Whatever

Ahhh... a tautology, folding back on itself. The essence. Where mysterious exist metaphor abounds. No one knows.
Mr Mobius! (I think that was a Toto album. No? :idea: :))

Since we're talking about cosmic overlap...

One time, I went up to Mount Wilson after a rainstorm. It was so clear that I could see Catalina Island 25 miles away with the naked eye. I used the binoculars and looked far in the distance. I could see the back of someone's head waving on a mountaintop, which was odd considering I was waving at the time.

:idea:

Aside from having similar experiences, I've had that very view. Like you could swim to them, the islands. Sol Cal, after a good rain and quick clearing the view everywhere is amazing, another world emerges.
 
What sound is the word "Onomatopoeia" trying to emulate?
The sound of many things in concert but nothing individually discernible, a cacophony of sounds all in the minor key. I don't know what it sounds like but I know it when I hear it. A symphony of sounds producing noise all but impossible to emulate so they gave it a word, and the word is... onomatopoeia. Opposite of aumm, ah-oom. The Moody Blues knew.
 
Now...you've created an enigma, m'8!

Q
Hmmm, wouldn't say enigma, nothing seems mysterious about it, even sociologically, which has been studied, utilized. But the physical, nothing comes from nothing except nothing, a disturbance of molecules in the air and the extended affect on all things, perhaps, which is quite the reach to be something beyond a simple and extremely minor disturbance in a sea of molecules. Kind of like whizzing in the ocean and contemplating the affect. Are we having fun yet... :)
 
....Are we having fun yet... :)

I do believe we are.

But this could all be a "dream within a dream". (Poe's take on things)

If you've heard the sound of one hand clapping...you've are are privileged to have had this experience, and it speaks for itself.

Just had a thought right now...a "random thought". Not sure where it came from, or where it's going after I had it.

But, what really is a THOUGHT?

How can some thing physical, made up of matter, create something that is not of matter?

And if it exists in MENTAL form, does it really exist?


Q
Physical audio amplifiers general sound, which is not matter. Same for lamps generating light, or oscillators generating radio waves, none of which are matter.

You open another "Pandora's Chest", as they (astro-guys) are still trying to decide what... "light" really is.


Q
 
"Generate", not "general". Why does this site change what I originally typed? (Post #6536)
Some kind of Embedded in the A/K forum`s software AI ?
Possibly "Spell correct" in use, at your end ?!

I`ve encountered some pretty brain damaged auto "Spell Corrected" typed word substitutions in electronic communications over the yrs, that the sender failed to proof read check before sending !!

I have no recollection, since joining A/K in July of 2016, of the site changing any of my words, other than it`s family friendly censoring software changing F#@k to all asterisks !

That`s all I have to suggest, egellings, Sir. FWIW.
