  1. 'Quiet Sun' baffling astronomers

    A year ago or so it was found out (and the climate zealots didn't object) that due to the sun's decrease in activity, global warming came to a halt, which will last for estimated ten years. The liar-scientists said that this would not stop global warming, but just 'mask' it, by counteracting CO2' influence. Hm, so the sun is a veeeery tiny influence compared to CO2, but now they admit the opposite ... that the sun rules and CO2 can only work under its pre-set conditions, so to speak. The best thing you could deduct from that is that the same intensity variation of the sun causes more change now than it did in the past, but that would then only create bigger fluctuation, wouldn't it? By the way... The acidification of the sea due to higher CO2 absorption by the water due to a higher CO2 concentration in the air is another claim of the climate zealots that contradicts the claim of other climate zealots of warming water releasing CO2 due to decreased capacity to absorb it. But both claim their theory to be true and the media accepts both as true, as if no contradiction was there. They are simply always right. This whole idea shares several typical similarities with religion.
  2. 'Quiet Sun' baffling astronomers

    Have read the first page. It is so bad on so many aspects. Plants' appetite caused the ice ages?!? Earth's thermometer only consisting of CO2?!? This looks like one of so many examples of a 'scientist' trying to sell a book by using a new thesis that is optimized at gaining attention by being against existing views. Quality of the thesis is not that important. A guy can write a book about complete bullshit; As long as it is unsettling, it will sell books. Maybe I should have read the other 4 pages, but is it just that guy's view and a philosophy or are there convincing facts? Oh and the BBC article is nearly worthless in my opinion: Too politically influenced and biased. We know nothing.
  3. Misspelling!

    Spelling is so impotent because the opportuntitties for alteration of the meaning in an awkwart way are always lurking and waiting for their chance to occur. This can end careers! By the way... do you know this?... Fmpmfpmfffmm mfffmm Pmpmppppppppffm-fmmpfmmppmmmpmp, mfmmpppppmpppffmmmfmpmppmpm mmpffm fmpmfpmpp Pmpmppppppppffm fmppffmmmpppfmmpmfmmmfmpppfpff.
  4. right brain

    I guess it's simply internal alchemy. Energy working through channels that have, for a long time not or never before, been in use. Maybe sensing energy fields now through increased sensitivity. Although it sometimes happens spontaneously, I'm increasingly successful at triggering this feeling by handling orgonite in front of my head.
  5. World T'ai Chi & Qigong Day

    I'll get up at 10 and do Kunlun.
  6. Jim Humble's MMS Chlorine Dioxide

    I'd say taking a substance that very effectively kills off harmful microorganisms from the body also effectively takes all challenges from your immune system, thus makes you kind of a junkie. Just a thought, but if you take it regularly and then stop, how will your body deal with the next flu? Better or worse? I would only consider taking it when I suffer from something that my body can't take care of on its own. Strength from within gives independence.
  7. Leaving, Soon As I Came

    I just thought: Maybe Zensunni Wanderer has already been gone since starting this thread and you're all talking to the void.
  8. killed a bug

    Sometimes I like to tease... I have an electric bug swatter (tuned to 9 volts) near my PC.
  9. right brain

    My brain doesn't talk, so .... no. But during meditation I noticed something like a magnetic motion behind my exebrow(s), limited to the left side. Since lately I feel that for maybe 25% of the day over the whole width.
  10. Right then...

    Which is one of several indicators for religion being mainly fueled by fear. It's always that someone or something is more powerful than you and you bow to that. Even the case with sun-worshipping.
  11. Leaving, Soon As I Came

    Originally it's just the craft of casting (metal). Later it was all about making gold through transmutation.
  12. I want to train with this master

    I had to quit watching the video before halftime. It was just too dangerous for my sanity.
  13. mo pai n kunlun

    You wouldn't believe what I'm gonna vote for in the next elections... Pirate Party!
  14. unfinished sentences

    when looking for advice __ask when giving advice __smile when in a fight __fight when fighting more than one person __kick ass when choosing a teacher __don't hurry if you meet someone and fall in love __love when you have nothing to do __be idle when you feel life is testing you __be yourself when you have to do something that you are afraid of __don't be when people don't agree with the way you live __don't give a shit
  15. killed a bug

    Nah... it's doing great. It drinks coffee and milk.
  16. killed a bug

    I roughly kill half of the critters, the other half I 'rescue'. Always according to the situation and my mood. Sometimes I feed them to my carnivorous plant; This way I always can say I did a living being a favor.
  17. Right then...

    No, it can't. No superior insight can ever negate this. Mathematics is superior through inferiority, because it is merely a man-made logical set of rules serving as an intellectual tool, or shorter: it is defined to be correct. Any time someone disagrees, it's nothing but playing with words and definitions. BTW... something that philosophers are wasting a lot of time on.
  18. How do you prepare your tea?

    Could also be due to a higher heat penetration in the slow heating process of the oven. A microwave tends to quickly heat the food up, but more the surface than the inner substance. So the food from the microwave might end up having a smaller heat reserve. When food in the oven looks done, it's done. Not so in the microwave.
  19. What effect does it have (I guess in the sense of acupressure) to press the tip of the middle finger against the inner side of the thumb at fingernail height? (And if it is relevant: left hand)
  20. Karma in real life

    Wait ... Are you sayin' he should eat his sister?!
  21. Immortal Chung on cultivation problems

    It is available for free here: http://2020ok.com/books/68/my-country-and-...eople-54968.htm or more directly here: http://ia300228.us.archive.org/1/items/MyCountryAndMyPeople/ There's no convenient PDF. I made one from the multipage-TIFF using IrfanView and PDFCreator, but the comment from the first link makes it unclear whether it's OK for me to make the PDF available for download.
  22. Leaving, Soon As I Came

    Those filthy neutrals!
  23. killed a bug

    Buddhist or Daoist answer?
