I always liked geometry and the science of telling stories (written, verbal), but I feared math like my father. Now I add a late appreciation of math and... with my youth gone like so many... an appreciation of history too.
One of the original questions here once was, "Non-science interests?" I love curiosity, reading, movies, forum participation, dirt-bikes, camping, hunting, fishing and the Missouri river, ... in short everything Tom Sawyer would have loved. Ha, ha, but what is there in this universe to love that is not science?
Unfortunately, in youth, the claustrophobia of classrooms once cramped my comfort zone like Sawyer, above. I'd supposedly had reading comprehension & spatial ability skills worthy of top degree... but I've largely wasted my exceptional luck. It is now painfully unveiled in my abysmal failure of appropriate academic achievement. Whoops. My hope is I am now much older & maybe a shade wiser..
I've loved any machinery no matter the size, there is a sameness to them all; Einstein, Poincare and others must have loved them also. With their help, I too find we live in a mechanical, symmetrical realm between the most and the least. One limit (c) is the maximum length something may travel in the shortest amount of time... and the other (ℏ) is the shortest length something may travel in the maximum amount of time.
And yet they both appear to me not just constant, but totally interchangeable in every way... in every way lowly miscreants like I can conceive... just as though they may be inversely proportional. The 'Relativity of Space' laws that exist beyond (and likely within) the atomic quantum shell space... and quantum reality laws that comprise our model... must somehow be the same... and thee dice gods will one day reveal their secret blueprint to us mortals.
I reach, and sometimes grasp, but... my fleeting grip shall also surely slip only partially fulfilled, during our short allocated wisp of falling sand. So many tocks to delight one's curiosity, so few ticks to satisfy it. My grains are few now. --Wes Tausend
