Oh thank you Momoe!

This comment brings to mind many things.

I hope your babies are doing well. Very well. hahahah

My son is a genius of sorts.

He attempts to try other things.

Genius is in the minds of the beholders. ha

I aint one of them geniuses. hahaha

I know this for sure.

Again, I hope you are doing well and I hope your grandkids are doing well also.

We just lost a king of truth.

There is all types of genius. Don't sell yourself short. ;)

Well NCD, I need to read this

Well NCD, I need to read this link more than once.

But Dark Energy and Dark Matter intrigue me.

Which brings me back to the baby boy's quiery:

What is the speed of dark? ha

Great link!

In reply to Dick, I LOVE this!

Of course men are colder than they need be. hahah

After listening to so many of these lectures I am caught up in presentation.

I loved Obama; but his eh eh ehs... were intially distracting but later enticing.

Greene and Dawkins and Krauss never hesitate for thought.

Their deliveries are almost flawless.

Oh how I wish I were born a genius!

Dick, I LOVE this!

Dick, I LOVE this!

I drove 3 hours through snow to go to a talk by Brian Green at my daughter's college a few years ago. Turned out he had a cold (I would call it a 'man cold,' meaning it is far more serious than the kinds of colds women get) and he gave a very abbreviated talk...so disappointed. I still like him, and I love the way he explains things. Later I went back for a lecture by Richard Dawkins. He was very interesting, but Liberty University sent a bus load of students and they monopolized the Q&A.

I haven't had time to watch the whole first video, but I am looking forward to it.

thanks for posting this.

Gravitational lensing helped proved Einstein's General Relativity

...Thus, gravitational lensing is a clean probe of the Universe and has much to tell us about its two most mysterious components - dark matter and dark energy.

*In fact, this is one way in which gravitational lensing differs from optical lensing, as gravitational lensing is independent of the wavelength (colour) of the light. All light rays are bent the same amount by gravity. Optical lenses cause light of different colours to bend by varying amounts in a process called diffraction, resulting in the splitting of light into rainbows. There is no such analogous effect with gravitational lensing.

Oh hi AA!

Oh hi AA!

I just thought of this song I should have added. I dunno, I like songs.

It's been the speed limit in

That's been the speed limit in all of NYC since 2015 and I assure you that we are no school-zone-type place but the literal heart of darkness.

Well maybe in a school zone!
