                           Scientific Paper: Breaking the Rules
                      by Richard DePersio with Ben and Michael*
Flying solo aboard comsat. Gods and goddesses - Calliope
included - are on Mt. Olympus. Winging it; impromptu; off-the-cuff;
adlibbing; without a net. Without hours of research and planning.
Lying: B  M (not bowl movement --- best men) are with me for
one of my final articles (the boy who cried wolf; you've heard it
before --- this time it's for real; looking forward to hearing from you).
An autographed picture of Aphrodite is on my computer desk.
Breaking the Rules...This represents my first scientific paper (or, is it
the second; Hayden Planetarium Program, age 16, some math - must
be early senility) as differentiated from a scientific article. It would never
 be published in science journal because of format and other violations.
 All modesty aside, it deserves publication After all, the UN papers on
global warming are falsified while mine is honest! (At
see: "Green with Envy" and "The Article: New-Spanking Version"
(first blue section).
(This paper was written prior to the events at
www.rickcmtsite.blogspot.com As Colombo would say: :Just one more
thing..." feel free to share my articles with your friends and
semi-friends and to tell people eve more famous than me about
my web sites and articles - even Schultz-ey at Red Eye!).
     
There has been a proliferation of shows about ghosts and UFOs
thanks to cable and thanks to cable for these comedies. I would
like to relate a story which I'm certain has a rational explanation.
Being that this is my space, I'll relate it unless there are any
objections.
      My nephew Miles (4 or 5; I don't keep track of important stuff).
My sister used to read to her daughter which helped her learn to
read. Miles didn't enjoy it. One day, he was looking at a photo
album and saw a picture of my father who passed away before
my nephew was born . He asked his mother to tape it to the
backboard of his bed. She continued to read to him and virtually
all the time he was bored and distracted; her daughter still found it
enjoyable. One day, my semi-wonderful sister heard him reading out
 loud. In shock, she said, "How did you learn to read!" He pointed to
the picture of my father and said, "He taught me."
      Brain or brain/mind...God or multiverses...Physics with math. and
without.....................I just returned from visiting the pope. Alright, no
more potty humor. Have you noticed that since the 70s, especially,
the '80s that stand-up comics and sitcoms, by and large, are only
capable of finding humor from sex, bodily functions, buffoonish
white males, the religious and conservatives. It must take all of ten
minutes to write a sitcom or a monologue nowadays. Gone are the
days when such humor was rare and comedy writers could derive
laughter from all forms of  human behavior....where is my Adderall?
...........I'm back. You didn't catch me kissing the picture on my desk.
No; good.
     The articles at www.comsat-ak.blopgspot.com concern astronomy
and philosophy...it takes time for the Adderall to take effect...the
posts at www.quasarpolitical.blogspot.com are primarily about
astronautics and space policy.
     Didn't I warn you that this article was extemporaneous (except for
BM (now, cut that our!), well, we're changing the title of this magnum
opus...too pompous?...exposition.
The BIG Challenge: Gravity - the Force that Pushes not Pulls-Part Two
(actually, adding a sub-title in the middle of article...nay, paper).
I can do that because I'm Add-ed and this is my comsat! A-oh, Hermes
and Urania just arrived. RD: "No; it's not a hostile takeover. No; I'm
not crazy enough to make a god and goddess angry. After all, all five
comsats belong to me." Hermes: "What! Comsat-ak belongs to Urania
and quasarp..." RD: "Where not doing that kind of humor here."
"Hermes: ...belongs to me and don't ever interrupt me again! I work
with Hades." RD: "Aphrodite gave me permission --- and you know who
her father is! Urania: "Namedropper." I'll see you later at the latest
Diogenes Club." Hermes: "What are you talking about?" RD: "The
one at rickcmtsite." Hermes: Now, I remember." RD: "You've been
spending too much time with Dionysus!"
Let's get down to business...Some say that Einstein replaced Newton.
Albert fell otherwise. He felt that Newton was great for the cosmos
(world) in which normal people lived. Einstein felt that Einstein was
only needed to be invoked when dealing with masses and speeds that
the average (who needs them; most people are prosaic; can't think in many
boxes simultaneously) don't deal with (forgive me for ending a
sentence with a preposition. Ladies, make that a cyber-space proposition).
Newton was good enough to get us to the moon! Albert helped develop
quantum physics but never accepted it. He felt that it must be part of
something BIGger. Newton shouldn't be discarded but thought of as part
of something BIGger and more correct: Einstein. Newton was good enough
 for everyday world. Einstein contended that quantum would eventually be
found to be  part of something BIGger and more accurate. Albert felt that
you can use Sir Isaac in the commonplace world or him (more complex
math.) for greater accuracy but why make life more difficult for yourself.
       As far as we know, no one has attempted to describe Einstein
non-mathematically in the world of Newton. At this junction, you might
elect to reread Part One to see where I'm going. B & M: "Do you know
where you are going or where you are in the universe!?!?" RD: No; but I'll get
 there. Don't abandon me."
Sir Isaac refused to explain how a force could pull and do so without
having contact between the two bodies - touching each other or a medium
between them. He finally became testy regarding the question and said,
"hypotheses non fingo (Latin for: I feign no hypotheses)...It is enough that
gravity exists according to the laws I explained. I feign no hypotheses...it
abundantly serves to account for all the motions of celestial bodies...I won't
speculate or guess if it is physical or metaphysical or occult or mechanical.
...inappropriate...experimental science explains how not why."
Later scientists tried to explain gravitational contact
between bodies not in physical contact via a invisible ether -- reminiscent of
the invisible crystalline spheres. A holdover, it would seem, during the
development of modern science of ancient type thinking, it seems to me.
Our contention: Let's think in terms of push not pull. Let's agree that the
 pictures of the space-time curvature in books, magazines and docs are
misleading generating misconceptions much like Bernoulli diagrams, as
opposed to, Newton-based in describing lift when it comes to things like planes.
We should change the way that we visualize the s-t curvature and, perhaps,
for the first time we can visualize Einstein in the everyday world between the
worlds of the very massive, very large and very fast and that of sub-atomic
particles. We shall return to this controversial position sometime before the
conclusion of the article. Let's go for the gold : a scientific paper in contrast
to a scientific article. Let's keep our bladders under control. My Biggest
Challenge: Let the stars be with me: Welch, Madonna and Spears (with a
shaven head). The established scientific community is crying foul. You can't
do a scientific paper this way. We certainly don't seek to be published in a
U.N. scientific (we use the term loosely, very loosely) journal. We'll present it
directly to our intelligently readers - nothing average or common about them.
We'll start off with the indirect like a lawyer who has his strong stuff but will
fatten it with stuff of lesser strength.
RD: "Dionysus what are you doing here? Something tells me that it is time for
 a liquid break; perhaps, it's the change of color -grapes...
Drank Ascencion - Torrontes, Salta -- cheap enough to do the trick.
Let's get physical...no; Aphrodite hasn't arrived yet...tangentially for you...
In "Understanding Flight" by Anderson and Eberhardt (McGraw-Hill; 2010)
they give a physical description of flight, especially, lift. I'm attempting to give
a physical description of Einstein in the world with which we are familiar.
Engineers employ Newton in the everyday world and scientists go with Isaac in
the commonplace world except when the most precise measurements are
required when they call upon Albert. As far as we are aware no one has
attempted to give a physical description of Einstein gravity for the world between
 the extremes: the very fast and massive and the quantum of the very small.
We couldn't handle Einstein mathematically in our world but they must think that
you are stupid too stupid to grasp complex concepts with a physical description. 
(Please reread last few articles a quasarp - not absolutely necessary).
       Understanding Flight: "...the wing is forcing the air down, or more
accurately pulling air down from above." If we want to enjoy the BIG 'A' in
our familiar environment, we must think in terms of forcing down or even
better: pushing air down.
(Aphrodite has arrived). Let's get physical...
RD: "Klinger, slide one, please":  the curvature of space-time  depicted
 for laymen (RD: "Aphrodite, let me be you lay-man) in discussions of 'E's
general relativity is rather flat and two-dimensional. They do point out that the
more massive an object is, the more it curves the 'fabric' space-time. (Don't forget
 that when it comes to space-time, we don't mean empty space like a vacuum; we
mean space that contains dark energy and quantum foam {electrons are made
 of strings while protons are made of quarks which are made of strings and
strings are made up of the foam - remember: Albert 'no middle name' Einstein
 taught as the matter and energy were different forms of the same thing;
preempting a question that you made ask later}).
RD: "Max, slide two": Let's imagine: that the first circle to the center represents
the earth; the next circle has a satellite in orbit around the earth. In Newton's
universe, gravity (an invisible force or force field) is pulling the satellite down.
(although, we generally, think of a force as a push not a pull; further, there is no
physical contact between earth and satellite). Let's pretend that the next circle is
right above and in contact with the satellite. (Hey! You have to work with what
you have!). There is no downward force instead the earth is bending or
warping space-time. (If the earth were more massive it would curve it more).
Result: the circle representing space-time is pushing down on the satellite.
RD: "Next slide, please,": You and I are being pushed a lot by BIG bullies! Mainly,
the sun and the moon. Jupiter, for example, though massive is far away,
therefore, its effect is imperceptible (not even capable of being measured with
 today's instruments {technology}): the curve looks like a line --- but  slight curves
does exist.
Curves and Curves...The whole solar system creates a curve around the
earth and you but not as curved as that of sun and moon ( solar system: further
 away; more spread out).  There are more curves that Aphrodite: The Galaxy;
the Local Group; the super cluster; the whole damn universe. (once again, we
have to work with this slide; it's the best that we got!). Space-Time is being
curved all around us: some imperceptible (with present technology), some slight,
others progressively larger.
       No longer should newspaper and magazine articles on science or popular
science books written for intelligent laymen or college textbooks use slide one
but instead a version of slide three!
What about dark matter? Newton: Hermes ("You rang?" RD: You're invoking
Maynard G, Krebs line in Dobbie Gillis."). orbits the sun faster than  Gaia
because it is closer to the sun, therefore, the sun's gravitational pull
 on Hermes is greater than that on Gaia. Alternately, the curvature over 'H'
pushes down greater than on 'G.'
Getting back to dark matter....You would think that the stars closer to the center
of our galaxy would orbit faster than those further out. Well, they don't! the stars
near the center and at the edge orbit at the same velocity (think of a record; the
thing before the CD). Astrophysicists claim that the Galaxy is filled with dark
 matter and extends out 10x (pardon the math!). the length of the visible part of
the Galaxy. I wonder if this dark matter, extending so far out, isn't pushing the
stars at the edge to orbit faster than those closer in, as the halo of dark matter is
 closer to the edge than the center. Newton battling with the DM achieving
equilibrium. Or, more precisely, the push not pull (or curvature) is less between
 the edge and the center. Matter battling with the dark stuff. We reiterate: Ban
Slide One!!!
*Franklin and Faraday are counted amongst that rarified breed: two of greatest
f'n scientists. Yet, they weren't very good at mathematics beyond arithmetic! (As
we learned from our WC friend Goldstein {another wonderful Jew-boy of "BO
Offends WC/AB" at rickcmtsite; David had nothing to do with this paper).They
possessed a genius for conceptualization and physical representation; akin,
one might say, to Albert's thought experiments to work through and help
explain his thoughts non-mathematically. RD wouldn't presume to place himself
with the the Fs; although, Citizen Journalist might!

                          HERMES Presents PUSH or PULL
                          A GIFT to a REAL LADY: URANIA
      by Richard DePersio with Citizen Journalist Janus Calliope
Hermes: "Speaking on behave of RD, CJ-C, it is good to be back.
Signed long-term contract that is equitable to all parties: RD, CJ
and I. The gods and goddesses of Mt. Olympus aren't members of
socialist unions which are destroying America --- to whom we
bequest Western Civilization. A Message for Urania: The old
haunt - CJCS Comsats - won't be the same without you. Sign new
contract post haste! The Obols are quite good! Ploutos concurs.

The problem with gravity: it pulls rather then pushes. We think of
a force as a push.
      Newton couldn't explain nature of gravity and how it could
influence over empty space. He tired of the questions until with
annoyance, he finally said: "It is enough that gravity exists
according to the laws I explained. It abundantly serves to explain
the motions of celestial bodies. I feign no hypotheses." He would
not speculate on the nature of the force - be it physical or
metaphysical or occult or mechanical. He explained that
science explains how something acts but not why.
We think of a force as a push.
     Einstein stated that a mass bends the curvature of space-time.
The more massive the object the greater the curve. The curve
causes space-time to push down on a nearby object.
Newton works just fine under most circumstances and the numbers
in problem solving are virtually identical to Einstein. Newton is
somewhat easier and was good enough to get us to the moon.
 Einstein is needed when dealing with extremely high velocities and
 masses.
     The fact of the matter: Push not Pull seems to save the
phenomenon better; it works better and may or may not describe
reality; describes it better than Newton. We can never be
certain if we are describing reality or absolutes --- that's for religion.
With science near certain, perhaps.
 
Wing lifts because air pushes down. Force is a push. Wing
irregardless of shape causes air to be deflected downward like the
curve of space-rime causes the space-time above the less
massive object to press down on it.
     Run a small stream of water from a faucet. Bring a horizontal
water glass over to it. The water will wrap partway around the glass.
Newton's first law  (no need to call on Einstein to complicate
things) tells us for  the flow of water to bend, there must be
a force on it. The force is in the direction of the bend. Newton's
Third Law tells us that there must be an equal and opposite force
acting on the glass. The stream of water puts a force on the glass
that tries to pull it into the stream.
    You don't like pull. The wing gives the air a downward deflection.
It does so by creating a region of reduced pressure on the top
surface of the wing (a kind of a suction) which pulls the air
downward. PUSHES on the wing. Wing deflects air down; air
pushes down on wing FORCE; equal and opposite reaction wing
pushes up --- lifts.
"Stick and Rudder" by W. Langewiesche (McGraw-Hill): "The main
fact of all heavier-than-air flight is this: the wing keeps the
airplane up by pushing the air down."
     "...it pulls the air down with its top surface...makes the air go
down. In exerting a downward force upon the air, the wing
receives an upward counter force."
Air pushes down on wing (force; action) and wing pushes up
(equal and opposite force; reaction). The same thing: gun
recoils as it shoves the bullet out forward.
     ''...if the wing pushes the air down, the air must push the wing
up." This is Newton's Third Law: For every action, there must be
and equal and opposite reaction. "...the wing...is in the last
analysis nothing bit an air deflector. It is an inclined plane...
that's, after all, why that whole fascinating contraption of ours is
called an airplane."
     "This plane is inclined so that as it moves through the air,
it will meet the air at an angle and thus shove it downward." It
pushes down on the wing.
Pic. 2: Imagine space-time pushes down on satellite as a
consequence of the curvature.
Pic. 3: As Albert taught us everything is relative: Wind deflected in
 downward direction by wing as viewed by pilot (if he could see
wind); wind would be nearly straight down behind wing as viewed
 from earth - not depicted (again, if you could see air).
 
(More on flight, as well as, the fallacy of Bernoulli Principle when
applied to lift {according to BP, symmetrical wings, for example,
 couldn't produce lift}, see: "Hermes has a Message" And
"Hermes: Ladies, Fly Me" at www.quasarpolitical.blogspot.com ).

                           ADDENDUM to SUPPLEMENT
       (Supplement "Soul Man" follows followed by Article Proper
 "Is There a God/Urania Moons You/Plato's Man-in-the Cave Series)
          by Richard DePersio, Citizen Journalist and Descartes
      The PROBLEM with KAKU and MOST of HIS COLLEAGUES,
           ESPECIALLY, OVER the PAST COUPLE of DECADES
God and Brain are mind-boggling. We just returned from a consultation
with Pythia, who was reticent to accept our queries.
 
Plato and Descartes were dualist: Plato - Body and Soul, Descartes -
Mind and Brain. Both were Rationalists: knowledge can by acquired
other than through the use of the senses, by exercise of our unaided
powers of reasoning; pure thought and mathematics.
 Francis Bacon and John Locke held that physical reality works
according to mechanical principles apprehended by observation,
experience and experimentation.
 George Berkeley is an example of a Idealist: only ideas and souls or
minds perceiving them truly exist. Physical reality doesn't exist.
Another name for Idealism is Immateralism. Further, If wind causes
a leaf to fall from a tree and no one is there to see it - the leaf doesn't
 fall. The leaf, the tree and the wind don't exist.
  Plato: "I subscribed to the view that perfect ideas exist in heaven."
 Realism:  ethical and aesthetic values and mathematical properties
 really exist 'out there,' independently of our knowing or experiencing
 them. Plato: "redness and tallness exist in Plato's Heaven
independently of red and tall things; my opponents, the nominalists,
maintain that these are names or labels that are attached to objects
 to highlight particular similarities between them."
 Michio Kako:   "My own view is that verification of string theory might
come entirely from pure mathematics, rather than from experiment"
from his"Parallel Universes"(in which he defined idealism incorrectly).
We contend the both rationalism and empiricism are vital to a
complete understanding of the cosmos.
There was a time when the process was: speculation (in verbal or
mathematical form) to model to theory to widely accepted theory to
fact. It was a process taking decades and necessitated a great deal
of observations/experiments to confirm by many independent
observers/experimenters. More than likely a proposal never made it
to fact. Now, we have short-circuited the process: a proposal in the
form of mathematical speculation, proven mathematically can now
be accepted as fact with little or no observations/experiments to
back it up.
There was a time when you believed or didn't believe in a theological
concept while you accepted or rejected a scientific concept. To
hear scientists today, especially, physicists talk about their belief in
scientific concepts. Semantics, you say. No; listen to them talk in
documentaries and read what they write with almost religious
conviction and fervor.
In traditional science, the theoretician or observer/experimenter was
detached and as objective as humanly possible. In contrast, it now
seems impossible to separate the observer from the observed; we
are part of the mystery that we are trying to solve.
 According to quantum theory the wind has and hasn't caused the
leaf to be on the ground. We won't know until someone looks:
collapses the wave function --- the Cat Paradox.
Einstein postulated what he called "objective reality,  absolute
reality outside of human experience. The leaf is on the ground or
not irregardless of whether or not someone is observing. You can
safely assume that the moon is in the sky even if you are inside
and can't see it. He sounds like a realist; we know that he was a
type of a pantheist.
Neils Bohr, one of the principal contributors to quantum theory,
held that reality existed only after an observation had been made.
He seemed to be leaning in the direction of idealism.
 To say ideas exist independently of our perceiving them as Plato
and Einstein suggests, one might say that the purpose of the
universe isn't us: with our prefrontal lobes of the neocortex
capable of accepting or rejecting God's existence and choosing
good over bad (He's rooting for us!). Unless one says that they
exist in Plato's Heaven or in the Mind of God, such as, things
that we still don't know. Would ideas exist at all if we didn't exist?
There wouldn't be a universe if we didn't exist. This is not to say
that physical reality/substance doesn't exist. It does.
At the instant of the BIG Bang, God established the initial conditions;
 physical laws with their constants which could lead to life, including,
intelligent life and places for them, to live. He didn't know precisely 
the nature of the life and the intelligent life other than it was likely to
be carbon/water-based.
He isn't an all knowing God; but, far more advanced than us. He
knew that advanced brains, if He were successful in producing them,
 would have free will and could chose good or evil. Further,
 intelligent beings would be self-conscious and could comprehend
distant past and future.
For centuries theologians have struggled for an answer to the
question: How could a totally good God create evil? We are
responsible for a certain brand of evil. The other type: volcanoes,
floods, etc. in which good people die. Plate tectonics was necessary
 for life which means earthquakes that kill good people. The God of
the Bible (who created universe and knows at every moment how
many fish are in the ocean, who controls every atom and is
everywhere {like an electron can be according to quantum mechanics
-many or all  possible places simultaneously]). may have created
evil and engaged in it, but, doesn't own up to it. Ancient gods such
as the Greek variety would impose inflictions on humans (evil) and
had no qualms about it. We picture a deist God who is only indirectly
 responsible.
We aren't capable of imagining the numerous activities that engage
God; one of which is his universe-experiment. He established the
laws of nature: physics and He doesn't violate His own laws; perhaps,
He is capable of more outside of the universe. For example, he can't
see the future of the universe because it isn't possible according to
the laws that he established. Would He want to be prescient? It
wouldn't be as much fun to see past, present and future in an instant
as it would be to watch the experiment unfold. He doesn't interfere
with the cosmos but observe. He chose to or is compelled to abide
by the laws that he created when dealing with universe and not
enabling prophets to see the future or performing the type of
miracles that would violate His laws; He doesn't interfere by
performing miracles. The universe exists for us to appreciate Him
and  His creation (over which He didn't have complete control; He
set the stage which led in a certain direction but not one which
wasn't totally predictable  - it's like trying to predicate future path of
a hurricane, you know that it falls with in certain parameters and will
 trace a relatively narrow path but the precise path is known afterwards).
Idealism to the extreme? John Wheeler believes that everything
is info in the form of math. A proton never reaches the event
horizon of a black hole according to the universe. The black
hole passes event horizon and enters black hole's singularity
according to the black hole itself (as Einstein taught: everything
is relative) where its identity is lost: mass, spin, charge, etc.
John suggests that the info that the proton contained now
resides on the inner surface of the event horizon - two
dimensional but appearing three --- a hologram. He further
postulates that all info past and present concerning atoms,
planets, galaxies, people, etc. exist in mathematical form as a
hologram on the inner surface of the sphere representing the
observable universe. We think that we are real and of substance
and exist at the center of the universe. If we went to the 'edge'
we would think that we were made of matter and at the center
with info in the form of a hologram on the inner surface of the
observable universe (the most distant objects in the universe
appearing to form a sphere with us at the center).
Is nothing sacred, Is nothing real?
Zeus Approved.
