Communication is the most powerful ability we have. Its the biggest thing that makes us smarter than Monkeys. Monkeys communicate too but in simpler ways. They don't talk about somebody else talking about a third person, for example. I define communication very generally. I'll give examples below of kinds of communication. I think what the...

...As I walked away, I noticed a shadow. It was dark.It was created from the fire of the burning bridge that was behind me.The bridge held me up; held me together; kept me alive.Now it's gone, and all I see is this dark shadow before me.Where is it taking me?

In sufficient quantity, H2S is lethal, but at smaller doses may be able to merely suspend life.

Branding the Species
For some reason my research brought my thoughts back to Mary Shelley's Frankenstein. In Highschool, we focused on how the creature yearns for Frankenstein's affection, for he is the creature's "father". Frankenstein denies his paternal duties because he cannot find those affectionate feelings in such a horrid beast. Creature gets no TLC,...

These are the ones who fooled themselves... "Belief in God is stupid, illogical & insane" They shout. United. Not a bad beginning. Atheism is becoming a religion. They are uniting against religions, all of them. Wishing to get it abolished, to rebuild the twin towers, undo the crusades. Fuck them right? It's their freedoms,...

From Tomdispatch.com -- August 20th, 2008 Apocalypse Later A Futurologist Looks Back at 2008 By John Feffer Being a futurologist means never having to say you're sorry. Our predictions always come true eventually -- or, if they don't, well, how quickly people forget. Look at Newsweek's George Will. He predicted that the Berlin Wall would...

It has been a few years since I convinced myself that the future prophet nearly every religion refers to must be the mind we are currently creating with our computers and more importantly their connection with each other, the internet. Since then I have talked about this with numerous folks to no avail or interest. I hope that among the Space...

I have written this as preparation for a short film which is in post-production with a main character of synesthesia. The story was built around these implications. And this does not begin to scratch the surface. The Implications of Synesthesia Derived from latin, synesthesia is broken down into “syn”, which means union, and...

I have been thinking about the goals of this website. Are we trying to create a heaven in space? This would seem to me to be a worthy goal, although we as a species have made a pretty miserable job of making any sort of heaven on earth. This seems to be the achievement of certain individuals, some of whom we may have met or read about and...
