"Green eyes, devil in disguise." "Blue eyes, snooze you lose." "Brown eyes, crown and clown." Hi, I'm blue eyes, the trickster from the little town of Meddybemps, Maine___a pretty little valley, with a beautiful lake, and mountains and hills all around. I grew up in a family of royalty, the family owning most of the town, and running political affairs as well. I am of the black sheep side, as my grandfather married a second time___a real no-no in the twenties. My house was full of academics, businessmen and PhD educators___gramps was a teacher, businessman, local and state politician, farmer, statesman and all around great guy, loved by many, as he employed many in construction, farming, and land oversight___over 100,000 acres in the twenties___3,000 acres still in the family today.
So, as you can well imagine, I had a very well rounded upbringing and tutorledge. Through my youth I was friends with boys whose fathers were economists, philosophers, physicists, electrical engineers, and other assorted academics. Many of my friends became masters of physics, electronics and economics. I'm still friends with many. Of course, I myself, am a wise-acker hard-drinking arrogant, insulting, and often disdainful Irishman. I don't like people much. I think dogs are much better than humans___thus my often bent toward outright put-downs. I'm quite well-aware of how my mind works, and always take the roads I do by self-known choice. I don't much care whose meta-feelings I hurt, because I only really know/believe in, and am interested in cognitive system's sciences. My wife and children hate me for this stance, but oh well, I and they will just have to live with it... I am who I am, and at my age, I ain't-a-changing...
Oh, in the seventies, I had a spiritual-social-cultural awakening. After it screwed me up so much, I abandoned all meta-non-physics for the cognitive sciences. The notes I took in that era have had to be mostly trashed___too much cultist meta-non-physics mixed with my own science views of the era. I have since tried hard to cleanse the scientific swamp of metaphysical Alligators, as Dave has said, or so-so... Through over forty years of research, note taking, editing of over 50,000 pages, and writing three web publish books___now deleted from web, I have learned what is real to me, and what is not___so you often see my straight-forward sarcasm. I should insert that I also spent three years studying with a polymath auto-didact buddhist___the main reason for my meta-non-physics exit. My first studies were comparative religions of the world, psychology, and anthropology. My next were physics, then philosophy, economics, law___finally settling on economics guided by the laws of physics over economic laws. Now, after realizing how difficult it is to get a big economic idea across to the general or specific public, I have decided a return to physics___to find a big idea___may be the most likely chance of success for my economic ideas___which are already completed. Therefore, I'm here along with all of you to discover the big Idea. My aims are probably most different than others, as I see using a TOE only as value of promoting, I feel, more important economic ideas for the safety and security of the future of America and the world.
That said, after starting my physics quests, in the sixties and seventies, returning here has actually caught my interests___very strongly. I like Tony S's, Dave W's, Baud's, HBD's, Tiny Tree's, Mr. Nobody's, Guille's, Robert's and I know several others' ideas, I'm forgetting. I think I'm so far into this I may be stuck here___it's just become intrigueing to try and figure out just the quantum/relativity of one atom's absolute motion. I can't help but try to envision a cesium atom at a virtual complete rest state, devoid of all angular and linear motion___how large would it be after losing all that motion?
Anyway, for all my good and bad, this is me. I'm on the quest...
regards,
Lloyd Gillespie
p.s.
BTW, I'm presently retired on the coast of Florida, in the beautiful sands of Mexico Beach. The campground is great, and the resturant, Tucans, is excellent. I'm enjoying the sun, beach, shark fishing and warm water. Wish everyone could enjoy such a retirement/vacation. Just to make you all a bit jealous, My H2 Hummer runs and looks great___06-Jet Black-10.5mpg towing a six ton camper-that's better than most other trucks, towing the same weight... To hell with the terrorists and tree huggers___I'm having fun living life to the fullest...
