July 29, 2025Jul 29 Don't take this video too seriously. It is playing with the many worlds interpretation (MWI), which always leads to weirdness. Unless you want to understand the entire universe (i.e., if understanding a very large part of it suffices for you) , decoherence ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_decoherence ) will do the job just fine. No need for MWI outside of cosmology. Peter

August 4, 2025Aug 4 I would like to know the meaning of life. I live in a place where I see varying degrees of life every day from people in motorized wheel chairs, push it yourself wheel chairs and walkers. I'm one of the very few who can still walk unaided. Then there's dementia. I run into every day. One lady who likes to tell us about working for the phone company and quickly forgets she told us and starts all over again. Another who is beautiful and sweet but can't remember what you told her five minutes ago. And my best male friend here who can't remember how to tell time but we tell each other old jokes and laugh and laugh and laugh. When I am asked why I am still physically and mentally healthy I tell them my mother was abducted by aliens so half my genes come from a galaxy far, far away. Noel The tires are worn. The shocks are shot. The steering is wobbly. But the engine still runs fine.

We come here from somewhere else [unspecified] to learn and be entertained. A combination of going to school and watching a movie. When we're done, we go back where we came from, and probably share our experiences. Richard Bach, in one of his books (probably Illusions) illustrates this nicely. One character wonders why we're here. Another character says, "Let's go to a movie." Character one gets caught up in the movie (Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid if I remember right) but character two makes him leave in the middle of the movie. "Why did you make me leave?" This is "life". I'd already figured this out long before I read the book. As for being in a wheelchair, don't think of it as confining. I had gout once and couldn't walk, and if not for a wheelchair I couldn't get out of the house. It's actually very freeing. It helped that it was a powered wheelchair, which are more fun than you'd think. 🙂 Hook Larry Hookins Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of EarthAnd danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings;
