Anybody else notice there's been a banner in the threads for quite a while that just says "test"?

Much as I love bacon and cheese, it would save an incredible amount of natural resources. I don't think totally vegan is necessary though, vegetarian would do.

do blind people (blind from birth) dream in shapes/colors? are all their thoughts emotions? whenever i think about stuff its an image or something. but if they cant imagine things like that they must have a hard time knowing stuff. do they know what they look like from feeling their outline?
I think they'd have a very heightened sense of touch. So much so that we couldn't even picture how they percieve the world, but they could dream in touch will all the intricacy and depth of the rest of us.

hahah I have a bed...and Johns laying over most of it. All sprawled out like. Eh' I may take a nap instead and not take my meds. Besides I have pot and that means when I smoke later I wont have a headache from not taking my meds.
Hmmmmm, well reb you probably know what's best for you, but most MMRI's and SSRI's (whichever you're on) are supposed to be most effective when you take them regularily, keeping a consistant level in your stream.

omg it must suck if you didnt have a bed!!
Sometimes I think I'd like to stop sleeping in beds, don't know why. But as it my back couldn't take anything except my very customized matress and pillow.

I hate myspace for some reason...
It's trendy. Trends have a way of getting on some people's nerves. It did for me until I realized this.


Quantum logic has been proposed as the correct logic for propositional inference generally, most notably by the philosopher Hilary Putnam, at least at one point in his career. This thesis was an important ingredient in Putnam's paper Is Logic Empirical? in which he analysed the epistemological status of the rules of propositional logic. Putnam attributes the idea that anomalies associated to quantum measurements originate with anomalies in the logic of physics itself to the physicist David Finkelstein. It should be noted, however, that this idea had been around for some time and had been revived several years earlier by George Mackey's work on group representations and symmetry.
Yeah, but we can't throw empiricle logic out the window until we have a better grasp on quantum logic. Personally I suspect that the quantum world isn't as random as it's made out to be, but rather thousands/millions/billions/( maybe infinately) different varriations of patternistic behavior. Inevitably though, if you adhere to string theory (it's my favorite because it jives with my buddhism nicely), all matter and energy at the subatonic level will achieve a relatively consistant rate of space-time energetic vibration to form a solid particle. I guess what it comes down to though is that every possibility exists before a single frequency takes place to create this atom and that.

The most interesting part, the big mystery at least to me, would be the find out why certain areas of space-time begin this fluxuation-induced vibration in the first place. I love this stuff because it's SO much like what the Buddha taught, that matter, energy, existence and non-existence, essentially all come from the same source with different areas of potential having different effects. He even said that we and everything are made of near-infinately small parts that constantly blink in and out of existence, shifting between different forms and degrees of existence, even that at this level everything is one. Some damn interesting stuff right there, but then enlightenment is a damn interesting state of mind.... for lack of a better term.
