This thread is for the more intelligent, any intelligent thoughts can be posted here by the more intelligent amongst us.
The thread is dedicated to bosley (bos) who only wants the more intelligent thoughts posted here.

Imagination is more important than knowledge; Einstein

I can confirm that the offer has been turned down, the board are considering a hostile take over of (TTYT).

The ,more intelligent.

Loving this thread - lmao!!

A thought for the day:


I'd like to die peacefully, in my sleep, like my grandfather.

Nice one (Driver)

Scientists have discovered water on one of Saturns moons today, giving rise to the hope they might also find life.
Yorkshire water have imposed a hosepipe ban since there has been little rainfall on the moon for several billion years.

Looks like quite a bit of water.

That won't stop Yorkshire Water. All they need is about 20 minutes without rain and they cry shortage.
Its a constant problem here in Gods own county, but I have the solution.
Everyone should be made to dilute their water so it goes further.

Well its p**sing it down here on the radio yesterday they said we could see stand pipes next week.

been saying for a long time now that we need more reservoirs, you know more people, more dish washers, new attitudes towards you must 3 showers a day, more bidets, more larger, more natural water (filled with tap water) WE NEED MORE RESSERS, but too intelligent for some. durh!!

Or a French approach to personal hygeine.

I can't see how it can help.

well, we need somewhere to dump our insurance write offs.

just a small input


when i was at south east london tech in 1977, we did a thing called the Hopkinson test ( electrical engineering ).

this involved two similar motors, each rated at 100Kw.
one was connected to the other via their drive shafts.
one was powered from mains electricity acting as a generator for the other whos output was fed back to the first....a lesson in perpetual motion....

i can still remember how amazed i was to see 2 100Kw motors running flat out and the only power input was 1Kw. ( from mains electricity ), due to losses wrt windage, resistace, etc

Probably cos of Quantum and the space-time coninuinuinuum.

I think you are properly wrong again in your assumption that it was Quantum and the space-time coninuinuinuum, The fabric of space-time is thought to be "foamy" rather than smooth, that explains the phenomena such as radioactivity and antimatter, and no other theory can match its description of how light and particles behave on small scales. There fore its is of no surprise to see 2 100Kw motors running flat out and the only power input was 1Kw

However it must be wrong.
All theories must be wrong, for a given value of "wrong".
No theory, past or present can predict accurately both the small scale world and the large scale universe.
String theory attempts to, of course, but it relies on the dubious mathematical trick of "renormalisation", where infinities cancel each other out.
There are those that argue the reason no theory can describe everything is down to our inability to understand increasingly complex theories well enough to make the predictions accurately.
For my part, I tend towards the strong anthropic principle that answers the question ; "Why are we here?" with the answer ;"Where the hell else should we be?"
The debate therefore becomes whether the anthropic principle is a dereliction of a scientists duties, or a willingness to accept that the universe is not as mathmatical as we think. I would argue that if the famous uncertainty principle is correct (and the foamy universe relies on this somewhat) then we can never really predict anything from our theories as all the values we apply have to be approximations and where we use an approximation, the result that emits from our beautifully constructed equation has to also be an approximation. The goal of science, therefore has to be finding answers that are less wrong, rather than finding answers that are right.

MMMmmmm I will have a think on that But you are properly wrong again!!!!

You told Kivver I needed his help!!!!!!
It's you thats stuck for a response!!!!!!!!!!!!
Alan

Youre having a laugh stuck for a response, go and sell your BBC.
