 Coolness: 91815 | Cool post. The "golden spiral" and the ratio phi is also something that fascinates me; apparently this ratio can be found everywhere in nature, and has been incorporated into numerous examples of art and archetecture.
I wouldn't call time a "pseudo" term, however. I think you're confusing time itself with the units by which it is measured. Of course, seconds, minutes and hours are completely arbitrary measurements. We could just as well develop a system of time that had, for example, 100 seconds per minute rather than 60. But time exists independant of how it is measured, just like objects have mass no matter whether its measured in pounds or kilograms. As far as cosmological theory goes, time and space are fundamentally related to one another (just as mass and energy are, e=mc^2) and space-time is actually the fabric of the universe. Your discussion of "conscious life" vs "total life" is also interesting, but again I must disagree. Sleep is not useless in one's development; its a time for dreams and for the assimilation of unconscious mental contents. Dream life and waking life surely complement each other. So someone who sleeps less will likely have a less active dream life, and this in turn will effect their waking life. Besides, someone who sleeps more each night might be more alert and aware during the day, thus more fully conscious than someone who is often drowsy. There are many degress of consciousness, not just "asleep" and "awake". |

En plus le temps change dépendant tu es ou pis la vitesse que tu vas. Si tu vas à 100km de la Terre le temps passe un peu plus vite, car tu es moins proche de la Terre donc moins proche de la masse qui distort l'espace temps. Pis si tu vas super vite ben le temps passe moins vite. Genre à c-speed y'a pu de temps. Me wanna go at c-speed. |

We're suffering with them." 10 million , that's 1/8 of Canada pledge.

 Coolness: 2604110 | Umm I think it's perfect that 24 hours a day, 60 minutes, 60 seconds... 60 and 60 is a little too perfect in my oppinion... making it 60 x 24 x 60 = 86400 minutes a day... thats divisible by 100! TOO PERFECT... |

| Coolness: 102890 | ah yes, noah is right... it's was made that way.
The Sun, our Moon, the rest of the planets, the weather system on Earth, the Earth axial tilt , the Earth core, the magnetic field all got together and form a conspiracy so we puny little human will have a 24 hours a day, 60 minutes, 60 seconds. seriously it isn't perfect, we get a leap second every 27 years. Don't forget to set your watches! |

| Coolness: 2604110 | In the spring of 1918, as the nation mobilized for war, Private Albert Gitchell reported to an Army hospital in Kansas. He was diagnosed with the flu, a disease doctors knew little about. Before the year was out, America would be ravaged by a flu epidemic that killed 675,000--more than in all the wars of this century combined--before disappearing as mysteriously as it began. |
