Element 99

Did you know that no matter which side of the road you are on, you are on the other side.

Unless you are into quantum physics, in which case you could be on both sides or neither side...at the same time.

  • How can you be two places at once when you're not anywhere at all?
    Is time  we consult Ralph Spoilsport and Babe to solve Zeno's Dichotomy paradox.

  • Wouldn't being subatomic make it fundamental as opposed to elementary?

    Mayhap...But today is electron day so I will go vote on it.

  • No you're right.  Now that I use what's left of my brain elementary and fundamental particles are the same thing.  For some reason I confused elementary particles with composites.

    All these ups and downs have a strange charm that makes it hard to tell the difference between top and bottom. That's what happens when one  photons the wrong issues    during electron day and find yourself stuck the muon candidate. Tau-tau for now.

    I'm sorry you're having trouble differentiating between top and bottom.  I'll explain it to you in graphic detail one fine evening. :-O

  • That little though experiment being taught to me as a teen is what set me off on my experiments with indole  psychedelics ,  substituted phenethylamine  entactogens.

    It din't cross the road because it was already there. At least that's what Heisenburg said...but I' not sure.

    In a certain dimension I would have have nowhere to go because I would be everywhere at the same time. I experimented with that one time when I heard of a new stripper joint opened on a planet in the Andromeda galaxy -travel was instantaneous and when I got there I found myself already there then i went back home and found myself already home; i could only not exist if I was in neither of any places..

    KG, you are a constant source of surprise to me.  I love brainy men.  They are my Achilles heel. 

    Do you know any? ;-)

    Yes.. Einstein. Could check out people who are members of Mensa. A few years ago a local paper ran an IQ test for subscribers to try and from my result was for me to give it a shot, maybe I could qualify to become a member. I didn't bother -I hate doing IQ tests.
