IT'S ALL GALILEO'S FAULT!!

Tecumseh said...: This imbalance, where mechanistic thinking is so predominant, goes back at least to Galileo’s assertion that there is nothing in nature but quantity and motion.

I agree with Chuck on this one -- this rotten, physicky way of thinking sucks. We need CDs and gerbes, instead.; 6/18/2010 6:04 AM

Tecumseh said...: Does he also hate cell phones?; 6/18/2010 9:23 AM
Mr roT said...: Galileo invented the cell phone, or so they say here, so I guess so.

Apparently Charles likes jet planes though, or he wouldn't be flying around burning kerosene to tell us not to fly around burning kerosene.

I think they invented jets somewhere around here also. Like in Germany and in the UK.; 6/18/2010 9:31 AM
Tecumseh said...: I'm sitting next to the spot where Galileo performed his jejeune experiment. Big woops. Dropping a stone or something from the fifth floor of some random building -- I was doing that when I was 3 years old, without making a fuss about it. A stone's throw away from where the jet engine was invented. And without the infernal cell phones ringing in my ear, to break my concentration.; 6/18/2010 11:59 AM
Mr roT said...: Ohain was in Italy?; 6/18/2010 12:27 PM
Tecumseh said...: You got it all wrong, Herr Rot. But I'll give you a D+, to cushion the blow.; 6/18/2010 3:20 PM
