About A very uncomfortable but directly observable thing against "theories of nonexistent time" of self-declared gurus around the world: Well, there are processes and they have different states, and so... according to their sophisticated theories a brown and dry leaf is at the same time exactly as green and fresh as it was last spring! ;-)

So, let them eat rotten food that of course is exactly as fresh and nice tasting as it was some days ago, simply because their theories demand it this way. ;-)

Or even better, let them do real hard work, collecting pieces of information, experimenting, and above all *testing* their theories against what the experiments show. Then they will develop exactly the same measure for progress in processes that is generally called "time". But of course under some other more etherious (and nonunderstandable) title! ;-)

The foto has its focus problems at the bottom but I hope that it is still good enough to post. Any opinions?

OK, now I understand you right, Fabrice. I thought that "great" was meant as "big".

Have a nice evening too,

Nick

Thanks a lot for the commenting reply, Aniko. I am glad you like it still.

And indeed, *fear* is the keyword for any metaphysical religious revelation that supresses thinking. A pity that most of us also fear to accept that we fear, and thus we construct mediocre but very pleasant pseudo-explanations about a world, in order to be... salvaged! Salvaged... from what? From the imaginary claws of some astro-religio-magico-silliness? And so they're paid for nothing. The vatikan itself is one of the richest industries around - indeed as you said.. industrial usage of fear.

How strange that we need billion earning authorities to advice is about what we have to do to think in such a way that they can earn some billions more.

Best wishes,

Nick.

P.S.: Bincos are now as clear as a BINary COSine function! :-) Hey, the world looks so much better now!!!! :-)

Oh well, it was not very... consciously selective, Dave! Rather selected by coincidence and thus not really my effort. :-D But I am glad to know that you like it still.

Thanks you and have a nice day,

Nick

Dear Nick... I will continue to smile with you as I am not in favour of high paid "gurus" who exploit "sheep mentality" people who seemingly are AFRAID, therefore cannot think and feel for themselves... lol... :)

Regading the photo.... lol... OK... maybe it is time you cleaned the bottom part of your bincos... Yet still, the image is most pleasing!

Best Wishes,
Aniko :)

Aniko, thank you very much for your kind comment - and for smiling with me with those obscure theories. To continue my sarcasm, the highly paid gurus are the first to check the *temporal* development of their bank account, which is steadily growing as the followers more and more pay money for mystical nonsense! :-D

Now on the photo itseklf, of course I am glad if you find that blurryness at the bottom not distructing, but... I wear glasses and when I look at it I have the feeling that my binocs are dirty at their bottom part. Oh well, perhaos I should really clean them! :-)

Best wishes,

Nick

Nick... these delights me... the image is wonderful and I really like your "about"... :)

I see your point re the focus problem at the bottom but it does not distract me at all...

Beautiful work my friend!

Best Wishes,
Aniko :)

Many many thanks for the nice comment, Eren! I wish it would have better focus especially at the bottom, despite the nice colors. But OK, we never have it all! :-D

Best wishes,

Nick
