Posted by Alison McKenzie on 12/01/07 at 10:28 AM I was captivated throughout, the universal metaphors never making me tired or impatient. The use of "fundamental" in the end caught me off-guard. I didn't expect it in the midst of such etheral qualities. At first it didn't seem to fit with the flow. But I chewed on it a bit (as respect for your work demands at times) and concluded, after all, that it does fit, as in "fundatmental" = foundational, which = a beginning - because throughout, that was the sensation I was having, of elements coming together with such force that creation occurs. You amaze me. |

Posted by Gregory O'Neill on 12/01/07 at 10:03 PM Cooling bodies gravitate and heat as they gravitate--heating bodies radiate, and cool as they radiate. You cover all that and more here, beautifully. And it becomes so cerebral here:"I want to couple with electricity and magnetism
to create arcing cyclonic swirls". This is grand. Thanks.
