K - I'm considering enrolling in this course. What is your opinion?

Thanks for the link RTH. Never heard of this site. Looks fantastic! It's online, it's free, it can't get any better than that. I would enroll in all courses, if I have the time. Nothing to lose and everything to gain.

Some of the courses are probably just videos, and those you could see on YouTube as well.

I am not sure how much value the "Statement of accomplishment" has. Something is better than nothing?

btw, folks should look up http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Runt
never knew it was a hindi abuse but maybe they' know betterπŸ˜†

talking of moons, here's the dark side of the moon. Wonder if folks can identify themselves there. Heavens knows they should get where no one can see them, present co excludingπŸ˜†



Hey ! ..Birdie ...That's a good discussion ..But somehow K's vastness criteria didn't appeal to me either ..Didn't the Positrons lack in number ? Like us good, positive people here ? which made the Universe so friggin negative...

Now tell me...Like me don't ya too fear the phonies might make that their best argument to drum up sympathy ? ...πŸ˜†

hey missed you buddy and totally agree with you. Don't mind our mutual friend. I know he can get cranky at times, especially when we dont like his posts enough.πŸ˜† But he's pretty high caliber otherwise, higher than what passes off for pseudo-lesbo IQs. πŸ˜†

".Didn't the Positrons lack in number ? Like us good, positive people here ? which made the Universe so friggin negative"

There is nothing inherently positive or negative about the universe; positive and negative are just arbitrary human assigned signs. We could as well substitute any other binary value there. 1/0, true/false, on/off...

All there is, is attraction or repulsion.

Hey ! Of course ...But then I guess we can't overlook the human perspective unless we are Aliens ...😊...All I had to say was those particles must always move in Opposite directions in the same matrix ..to conserve the momentum ..Now what's negative and what's positive is again the matter of one's perception ...I don't allude to some innocuous Saint as a Killer ...Um..Do you ? ..πŸ˜†

That may be, but I am convinced that as long as I have the human perspective, I will never be an "unbiased" observer because our perspective introduces bias.

(We could continue this in the chat thread if you would like. This thread has a different purpose, even though, now-a-days, I don't see see much difference between one thread and another. They all degenerate into chat)

Haha ..No ...That's alright I guess ..Didn't we almost concur there ? ...😊 . It's the matter of the perception after all ...The bosons or the humans ..Some are known to blink and the rest for being all blinkered ...πŸ˜†
