I’m on a “Aprisma Spectrum” course all week, which is basically a network management tool for the uninitiated. Looks pretty tidy too in the latest flavour, using java and web front-ends to great effect. Certainly much better than what I have been used to in the past!

In other news….2 dimensional time! Fact or fiction? Itzhak Bars seems to think this could be fact as he postulates around the standard physics model and the quantum model, bringing together a number of similarities, and “symmetries” explained by having another dimention to time, one not quite so tangible as the one we are used to. Certainly enough to make you think. This world is changing at an incredible pace…our perception of the universe, time and space, and even our own mortality.

My view is to keep things simple, and not pretend to know any of what I’ve just been talking about. There are a great many things “out there” that we can niether see nor comprehend. Now if scientests want to give these things labels so be it, but it isn’t going to change the type of cereal I eat for breakfast in a hurry, or make me any smarter….whether you label something as a UFO, or a natural phenomena, or an extra dimension - it doesn’t really matter - all these things have always existed and always will in a standard and uniform way, the only thing that seems to be changing is our perceptional language as we try to come up with ways to explain those things we can niether see or know. As scientests all over the world continue to search for the elusive theory of everything I will offer my own simplified equation here and now:-

Everything in the universe = status quo ad infinitum

….yes I admit it….I’ve been reading New Scientist again….
