With all due respect, mathematical "idiot savants" is what has destroyed this website. For all intents and purposes, the idiot savant Einstein, though credited (rightfully so, of course) with mathematical bombshells, was functionally illiterate when it came to living in the real world. He could hardly keep himself dressed correctly without outside help. The same has also held true for many other "geniuses" like Everett who came up with the ridiculous concept of "many worlds" idiocy while sequestered for months like a monk because he couldn't work on a mathematical model and interact in the real world at the same time. Hawking fits the mold very nicely, thank you very much. Unmistakably genius, he is also real-world retarded--bouncing back and forth about his "beliefs" on whether there was intelligent design, or the complete lack of it.
As you may have garnered, I have little need for "linear literal thinkers" who have much difficulty thinking out of the box. If, indeed, there are seven literal dimensions at every point in space and time as proposed by the "Calibau-Yau spaces" hypothesis, your "linear literal mathematical models" are about to take a paradigm shift into obsolescence; because by the authors' own definition, literal linear thinkers are going to have to actually "perceptualize" geometry in the real world, rather than immerse themselves into the netherworld of idiot savant mathematics.
Can you idiot savants even PICTURE what would happen to a single photon passing through Calibau-Yau space or the possibility of that single photon passing through a seven-fold crossroads...in every single instant of space/time/matter? Not only does it allow for a "seven-fold" (at least) quantum entanglement of particles and all of its attendant possibilities" it CERTAINLY allows for the "simple" proposition being put forth here of a particles ability to exist in two places at once--thus allowing for the "conservation of mass" principle to be upheld with a little "non-linear" thinking. Instead, idiot savants like TIMELORD drive any would-be posters from even discussing what is on their minds on this site, which used to be lively and interesting. Darby, Ray, Tom, Anita, Transient and others have had great scientific, philosophical, and even religious input without having to resort to "marginalizing" the input of many who have a genuine desire to understanding of what makes our universe tick without having to resort to defending themselves (however "crazy" their ideas) from smug little know it alls who, in my opinion, don't really have a clue about the "real world". Mathematics, to me, has allways been boring, though I could probably write computer programs along with the best of you. Human beings and their nature has always been far more interesting and satisfying. My God, even Creedo, as weird as he was, gave us all something to ponder about in his madness--and oftentimes, a chuckle to go along with it.
With all that said (and off my chest) I probably will just continue to lurk now and then, pondering the "good ole days" of when we had fun here, being human, being open; using satire, humor, and a plethora of unorthodox ways of thinking to unlock mysteries that NONE of us (however intelligent we may think we are) REALLY have a grasp of. Even Machio Piku (however he spells hisname), the whore that he is for the physics world, saw us as LESS than a type I civilzation. I always get a kick out of seeing these so-called "elites" of the genius world walking around thinking that somehow, they are not part of that Type 0 civilization--lording it over the rest of us. Don't get me wrong. I actually LIKE him. I just can't ascribe to his particular brand of Zen-colored glasses and his particular Zen-biased view of how the universe works. That makes him just another idiot savant. To the originator of this thread, keep thinking out of the box. Your view of the universe is just (if not more so) as valid as the linear thinkers on this forum. I have a feeling that the LHC is going to show that "massive space/time" is going to get much more "massive" (a little pun for you Ray). I really mean it when I say that we are all headed for a "paradigm shift", and it is going to cover all the bases--scientifically, philosophically, AND religiously. I can almost taste it. It is going to be SO delicious--and probably quite tragic in its own ways. Heads are definitely going to roll--and I don't just mean metaphorically.
Ok, I'm done. You can mock on now.
