    Okay I'll definitely look for those, and find out why it didn't pan out; and yes, Lisi was the surfer. There has to be some validity to what he is saying - after all he isn't the first guy to combine these forces to E8, so there is most likely a pattern here. I'm sure the work from the Hydron collider will show more pieces to this puzzle.

    I was viewing Tormod's profile page, and noticed that you had posted images 4 days ago that looked like this model called E8. Are you familiar with Garret Lisi's E8 theory that he is dubbing 'the theory of everything', which he boldly is trying to combine Relativity with Strong and Weak Nuclear force and Electromagnetism? His model looks more like the Metatron's cube depicted in Sacred Geometry, and tries to explain how when a particle interacts with a boson, it changes it to soemthing specific, such as an electron or neutrino.

    I wish...I'll be there in spirit. But Yvonne's going up to Prince George, BC, next summer to visit a relative. That's as close as we get.

    tonite begins The Prisoner series on the ol boobtube.....I couldn't help wondering why some of the imagery and the whole damn thing seemed so bloody familiar, like I'd seen it before so to speak....my first thought was maybe the Eagles' Hotel California had something to do with it....but no...it was something else.....very tangible and yet not....a vague fuzzy memory of a fuzzy TV screen.....Bam!!! a revelation...hastily a wiki was queried...AhA!! So I'm not a total mental case nor as big an idiot as suspected twas a mini-series from the late sixties! Goddamn lazy f***ers!

    Wish I could simply copy someone else's labors and reap vast financial reward.....lazy ferkin bumnuggets!

    Yes. The images are intact. It's the software that's gone.

    I wondered how long it would take before somebody noticed. I love Mr Escher's work, and this is one of my favorites. I see a lot of possible influences of turtelesque type stuffs in some of his other works

never before last walkabout had i specifically sought the camas seed, and so one revelation for me rooting around that field was that the camas pods & seeds make a most unusual and remarkable sound when disturbed. i may have heard it before in the field but never knew the cause, and would not have associated the sound with camas even this time save it was camas seed i sought & it was camas seed i found. the sound is bright, high pitched, almost like a quick & short whistle or a little...

took a while to id this as it's not in my books and no one lists 'peach' as a flower color. even when i found it in the state database, peach petals aren't mentioned or the blue anthers, but the 5 petals narrowed it as well as the slender leaves. photos helped a lot as they showed the reddish stems which no source mentioned in the text. once i id'd it, i checked my county listing of vascular plants found and this one is not there. this is the plant i mentioned earlier...

i have climbed to the mountaintop! while there, i gathered some seeds from wild growing lupine, and now that i have climbed down off the mountain i have commenced a jag to collect more seeds in the wild. took off today & walked to an unmowed field about a mile away & started gathering. i especially wanted to get the yellow salsify i earlier spotted there & i came prepared with a dozen or so rinsed out zipper tobacco puches. looking for native plants only, no aliens thank you, &...

the beautimous little flower you see, for now, aside this post is a plant native to my area, namely Fringecup - Tellima grandiflora. that it is fringed is obvious, but less so 'grandiflora', as it is a rather not grand but small flower. so this one i collected several years ago and grew in a pot, then put it in the yard in a shady corner last year. it's thriving & i spent the last couple days harvesting the ever-so tiny seeds now matured. of the maybe 40 seeds i got i have planted a few...
