Hi Mague,

i wouldnt go that far and state that no man ever had an original idea. I think man had a lot of original ideas. Just not all of them. If my bucket has a leak i dont need a god to close the leak with one of my socks.

No but where did the concept of bucket and sock come from? Whether you choose to block the hole at all, whether the fix is to be temporary or permenant, whether you use a sock or some scrunched up newspaper, all these choices are yours (as are the consequences). The concepts of containers and coverings are already there buckets and socks are just manifestations of those concepts.

Fallen tress have knotholes. After rain they hold water. You just have to cut away the tree and keep the hole Voila, bucket.

Feet covered in dry mud are warmer then nacked ones Voila, socks !

Aye captn, sometimes we just copy from nature.

Mud socks must have been a pain to wash and iron.

Yes, but how did those before the 12th dynasty do it?

hello TalonThorn,

Yes, but how did those before the 12th dynasty do it?

Simple machines, planning and coordination, and plenty of man power.
And one could speculate about an assist from nature...a lesser felt effect of gravity.

nick c,
If so called gravity is a consequence of attraction and repulsion of aether rotating vortex flows that equalise out at ninty degrees around a sphere?
Then I see no reason to not suppose that at different time spans, a method of locally controlling the opposing flows has been obtained, and utilised to both levitate on a temporary basis huge blocks, and to utilise the self same phenomona to turn matter into no-thing in very precise laser like beams.
this will be possible by overloading one of the opposing flows to break the bonds of matter along that beam.
to levitate blocks a more broad beam will have saturated the block with the flow emitting from the planet, thus leading to levitation, this will be temporary and will disipate .
I consider all of this will be resonance based and have to conform to the geometry that is found locally, this geometry will therefore determine the local architecture, which will be place specific.
Time must have an information structure embedded into time, therefore what is known and utilised may be time based like a wave structure, a given one millenium, gone totally another.
i feel like a throw back to neanderthal times quite often?
All just my personal ramblings.
