Ok, but does your audio gear have rotons (metamaterials)?

There were no typing courses at Case Tech and I've never mastered the skill of paragraphs, on this site.    My tab key doesn't function in here and my typing stinks, anyway.            Still: no one interested in actually learning something, should have the least bit of trouble following the lines.     Only those many, in here, that have chosen to ignore (remain willfully ignorant of) the history of Physics.     Back in 1927 Vienna, at the fifth Solvay Conference on Physics, some of the greatest minds on the planet (ie: Einstein, Bohr, Schrodinger, Heisenberg, Curie, etc) got together, to discuss things like photons and electrons.        Arguments quickly ensued between those that wanted the universe to make sense, based on classical Physics and/or Relativity and those that were theorizing about quanta (packets of energy) and how so many things, observed in their experiments and in their theorems, based on such as Planck's Constant and Heisenberg's Uncertainty, seemed irrational.      Every day: Einstein would come up with an objection, as to why such must be in error and by evening: Bohr would have an answer.     As an example: Wave-Particle Duality.      Einstein wanted electrons to just be solid particles, all the time.    Bohr asserted that they existed as fuzzy/indistinct waves, with no particular position.   Only a multitude of possibilities, until observed or detected, at which time, they become particles.    Einstein replied, "So, you're telling me the moon doesn't exist, until I look at it?"      Anyway, that's a miniscule, much simplified slice, of what took place then.                   What followed that conference, is a matter of history and experimentation.    Some proved Einstein's assertions.  Others: Bohrs      Probably: the resultant inventions that are most notable, whether you believe them to be evil or not, were the Atomic and Hydrogen Bombs.    Obviously Quantum Mechanics works.     One of the arguments, of which I was most interested, back in the 60's, while studying Physics, was that of Entanglement (if a photon or electron are split into two entities, each when detected/observed, will exhibit identical properties, whether across the room, or across the universe.    Einstein called it, "spooky action at a distance".   To make it fit with Relativity, his universal speed limit (speed of light) and make any sense, at all: he postulated that when a photon is split in two, both (at the source) already have those properties determined.       Quantum Mechanics stated they exist as wave functions and don't exhibit any properties until observed/detected, at which point the information is instantaneously communicated (again: regardless of distance).       No one had a theorem, by which to test that, until a guy named Bell (who I believe to have actually been ambivalent about the whole thing) came up with one.   He lacked the means, by which to test his math, however.       Then: a couple guys at Berkley, California cobbled some equipment together and proved the Quantum Mechanics view correct, using Bell's theorem.       You can deny the facts, until you're blue in the face, BUT, without what's been gleaned from the study of Quantum Mechanics: we wouldn't have a few of the inventions that I'll just bet most of you have in in your homes.  ie: LASERs, GPS, anything digital (computers, cellphones, smartphones), semiconductors (ie: diodes, transistors, ICs, etc), the electron microscope, and MRI (well, maybe those two, not in your home).    The list could go on.        About Nicola Tesla: make fun, if you will, but he's to be thanked for the AC you're enjoying, in your home.     His inventions and genius took the likes of you, kicking and screaming, into the Twentieth Century.       Everything in this post can be EASILY VERIFIED, on the Net.       PROBABLY: the first objection will be, "Too long to read!"

"...one can only hope that the non-scientists among us can emulate some of the tolerance and rational debate that allows science to form collaborative communities through discussion and debate."                                                                                                 Not much tolerance is exhibited in here, nor was during that Vienna conference (from what I understand), but: AMEN!

Primarily because: we can only see the light that has had time to reach us.                                      Also: why we can’t see the outer limits of the universe. https://starchild.gsfc.nasa.gov/docs/StarChild/questions/question52.html#:~:text=That%20means%20we%2....

"To start a new paragraph type four spaces after the period then return twice."              By, "return": are you referring to the Tab key?         Thus far: the only thing I'm getting, is a headache!   I use the Advanced Columbus Method (discover and land).       Perhaps this old dog is just getting to old, to learn a new trick!

Funny, that you mentioned Hubbel.      When Einstein came up with his eloquent little theorem on gravity; he couldn't account for all the mass it would take for a stable/static universe.      He had to add what's referred to as the Cosmological Constant (Lamda), which (it's said) he considered his greatest blunder, until he died.       In 1998, the Hubbel telescope proved him correct!     Shame that he wasn't around for that!      Just another case of not knowing what (or having the means) to measure whatever's being argued about  (ie: tweeks/snake oil).           https://www.space.com/9593-einstein-biggest-blunder-turns.html

Try RID.

     LOL!    Actually: I DO (on DVD)!
     OH, and use a REALLY small comb (those are nano-sized critters, that you think you, "got").

@djones- The less those of your ilk think of me, the more secure in my positions, I feel.  
     Thanks for that!

     I'm afraid to touch that last rambling, for fear of screwing up something (story of my life).    
      About those particles/photons: https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/something-from-nothing-vacuum-can-yield-flashes-of-light/....
     Even Aristotle new, way back in his day: nature abhors a vacuum!  
     If anyone questions what all the previous rhetoric has to do with the original post: what's mentioned in it, is based on experiments with Quantum Mechanics, which some quickly began shading.    
                                        

     Well: I suppose, now that you've cleared that up for me, I'll have to give it a try.    
     I'll be darned, looks like the old dog (maybe) CAN still learn something new, after all!    Providing I can remember that, next time I wake up.
     Far as our particular view of the universe (ie: Quantum Hologram/String Theory is the, "what you see is what you get", Multiverse, Big Bang, and dozen, even weirder); it's my guess, we're all going to be surprised, when we leave this plane.   Our minds are comprised of measurable electromagnetic waves and something (some rumors have it) that weighs 21oz.    
     Haven't tested that last one, BUT: I do know that according to the LAWS (there aren't many of those, in the Sciences) of Thermodynamics (the first, actually, being Conservation of Energy), energy can neither be created nor destroyed.     So, where does that energy go?
     Personally: given that science has proven/observed, in the most complete vacuums man can create: subatomic particles pop into existence and are annihilated in a tiny fraction of a second.     From where do they originate and go?        My best guess is another dimension.   
     (I'll bet the following will generate some responses, far as my sanity or, at least tweak some gourds)   What do you bet, when the World's governments finally reveal all the classified data, collected in the past decades, regarding UFO/UAPs; The rhetoric will be, they're from another dimension?    
     Hey, that's pretty cool; the paragraph thing keeps working, even if I go back and add crazy stuff, to prior paragraphs.   
     You've created a monster! 
     

@thecarpathian-    I understand, perfectly.    
     Always have hated hype!     ie: When watching TV, I always mute the commercials.   The Mute button on my surround's remote is now dead and I'm forced to press the CD source button, then back to TV, when they're done blowing their crap.

@hilde45-   Sorry about the major thread highjack!

@mijostyn-   At one time: I had designed a hexagon auditorium, sound treatments and system, for a local church, that subsequently hired me to run it, for a couple years.  
     The Pastor wanted the messages recorded, in script, via the computer system in the sound booth and bought voice recognition software, to facilitate that.   He spoke with a Texas drawl and some of the results, were absolutely hilarious.  
     The name 'Dragon' sounds familiar.  Were they around, some 10 or 12 years ago?  
     Thanks for the tip, but, as is probably obvious: I'm having too much fun, with this new skill(?).  
      Now: if I can only remember to stop hitting the periods, instead of the space bar, before Enter, and having to erase them....  

@tony1954-  How am I doing?

@nonoise -  "Maybe that bright light that's purported to be seen at our passing is just the tiniest of wormholes meant to accommodate our next move."   
    
     Some theorists postulate that Black Holes may be wormholes, leading to other dimensions.     Typically: I feel like I'm swirling around the event horizon, of one of the largest.  
     Then again: perhaps they're the universe's quintessential toilets?  
                                         That'll be my luck!    
   
" Maybe only certain bodies can accommodate certain energies and all matter holds all energies, with ours being one of the highest orders of energies.
     Animating these bodies is just the way things are done."  
 
     When the two scientists at Berkley proved the theories regarding Quantum Entanglement true, the Hippies out there, that were REALLY into Eastern religions, jumped all over it.     A few books were written by such.   Actually: those two scientists WERE hippies!    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Lpf15w6voc 
    Copy/paste this in your searchbar: (quantum entanglement eastern religion books).  
                                            Have fun!

     I have some older Synergistic cables (Tesla Apex, a couple versions of AC Master Coupler and Tricon phono cable) and love the enhancements they made, in my system.  
     But GEEZ: the technology mentioned in the OP's article, hasn't even been developed yet (now: THAT'S hype)!
     Gotta wonder: how long will it take them, to have a set for the Southern Hemisphere?    The guys Down Under, have to be chompin' at the bit!
   
                                  Just SLIGHTLY over the top!  
   
                                           DISAPPOINTED!

@asvjerry -  " ...but not surprised, tho.... We be Borg soon enough...."  

       Check this out: http://human20.com/tag/nanotechnology/   

     After clicking on the, "read more" link, be certain to go, "back" and scroll down to the second part of the article (Timeline To Immortality).

@clearthinker-   "Rodman, do NOT believe everything you see on the net. As time passes, more and more material is false, sometimes through ignorance, more often through intent to put up false and misleading information."  

     What you, CLEARLY refuse to face, is the fact that everything I posted, has categorically been proven/confirmed, through scientific research and experimentation/testing.  Oh: and most of it, WAY before the Net ever existed.  

                        Something commonly referred to as, "HISTORY".  


      ps: If you're going my make comments regarding a scientific subject: it would behoove you to learn a thing or two (at least) about it, first.      Higher education is your friend!

"I believe for the Rotonic Pulse Generator to have an efficacious effect in the Southern Hemisphere, one need simply to flip it upside down."   
    
     Hadn't thought of that!     Pass it on to Ted (apparently: he hasn't yet, either and might miss that market).    

"Also, the technically correct way to say that expression is ’champing’ at the bit."
   
     Funny thing: when I type no more than, "chompin" in my search bar, it automatically fills in a series of ways to say, "at the bit".      Guess I'm not the only one that makes that mistake.    

"(No horses were harmed during this correction)".    

     Loved my horses, when I had them (and the rest of my family).    
                            I and the ASPCA thank you!
     

@tomic601 -     I really like the way you did your moniker!   

     "IF i squint, it looks like the giant hadron collider…. "    

      Not a big thing, but, I like to get details/names right/correctly and believe you might as well, so:   the proper name is, 'Large Hadron Collider'.   

        "thank god i work with ex Dwave and Cray dudes, they can help me create the bubble….wait for it…..with software….."    

      All the bubbles I'll EVER need, are already in my head!



   
     
    

       

@hilde45-    Animal House is one of the funniest movies ever.   A classic I have to watch, maybe every six months.  
     Ever feel like you've known everyone in the flick, personally?

@millercarbon-  " By return I meant enter. Whatever they call it on your keyboard that takes you back to the beginning of the next line. Only necessary on certain browsers or computers or whatever that this site doesn’t play nice with."  

     I find it interesting, on this rig: it doesn't matter whether I hit the spacebar (4X), or four periods and the Enter key once, it still Returns for me.     Not knowing Enter = Return (and trying to form paragraphs, on this site) was giving me fits.
     Thanks for helping me learn that trick!    Just wish I'd known it, before typing that (felt like so sloppy) dissertation, above.

@tomic601 -    "I also believe my point about “ large “ was also made in Animal House. Veggie aisle, … say no more…."  

     My favorite place for cucumber, is in a Middle Eastern restaurant.   NO: not in the Belly Dancer (you sick puppy).   The tzatziki!
   
     Sadly: mine is the only part of my body, I haven't (yet) outlived, but now: have no where to put!  

                                                                    FIGURES!

@avsjerry-     "...happy you're happy with 'Enter'...;)  But many problems stem from PEBKAC....*G*."
   
            In my case: it's NLBK (Nut Loose Behind Keyboard)!

@asctim-    Ti is also very difficult to machine, must be machined slowly, requires special/expensive tooling and wears that tooling, very quickly.  
 
                   Great stuff, when you can use it!

@thecarpathian- "Interesting tidbit, when you finish a sentence with three periods instead of the standard single period, that triple period is known as an ellipsis..."

     HEY: I made one of my favorite skydives (perhaps: THE favorite), during the 2017 solar ellipsis...!

     Flew between two huge clouds, for 5000’ and set the record for off-DZ landings, too (9.5 Miles).   GoPro video available, on request.

                                          (while we’re being punny and off topic)

@thecarpathian-   That was hilarious!

       But: Blood Moons scare me, even with BOTH eyes wide shut!

                                Do you really jump?

@avsjerrry- "Well, all that can happen here is to crash the ’puter....on a physical level of sorts, anyway."

I meant to mention, having tossed one of my laptops at the wall and putting my fist through another’s screen, when trying to get acquainted with a keyboard (again) and so forth, very early on, in the technology.

Would either of those count as a, "crash"?

                                           "MetaMentalMisfortune, rubber mallet....;)"

Been waiting for an efficacious, Mental-Metamucil product, with which to clear my head.

Tried working things out with a pencil, in the ear, up the nose, etc, but, thus far: no movements of merit, worth mentioning!

@thecarpathian- "I personally have not jumped, but it is indeed something I am quite interested in doing."

     DONT pass up the opportunity!   It’ll be the most fun you’ve ever had, with your clothes on (even if you only do a Tandem).

     I have culturally cancelled my own capriciously callous (Whale of a fail) attempt at comedy, having clearly offended the congregation.

      Probably having removed any doubt, as to whether needing Mental-Metamucil was a joke, in the process!

@avsjerry-    You've got mail.
