Re: The Clues Chronicle — help decide the threads to read!

Thank you for the kind words. It is very appreciated. Thanks to Simon, I have been able to make a new FTP account at Servage and request they fix the blog. As a result, it seems they claim the blog was never down in the first place (slightly strange, since the database was very much disconnected fro...

Re: Introducing the TYCHOS

Flabbergasted, click on the images for the higher res versions. Don't save the forum thumbnails. The files Simon posted are 2.78 MB and 3.84 MB but you must open them by clicking on the thumbnails and then saving the high res images that open in a new window. These are great summaries. Simon and Pat...

Re: Introducing the TYCHOS

Congratulations on ever more salient points for the TYCHOS model, which is the most geometrically correct (and most intriguing, inspiring Cartesian system to date). Most of these points are unassailable and appear to beg answers from the obsolete heliocentric "mono-star" model. TLDR: emoti...

Re: Proving the TYCHOS model with 3D modelling

Really? Have people shown they are convinced it's BS? I'm sorry. Then they obviously haven't tried to study or understand it . . . or the problems with the stars in the heliocentric system. The TYCHOS is obviously the more thorough and more physically correct option. We humans are often our own wors...

Re: Proving the TYCHOS model with 3D modelling

You guys are too kind. Simon did all the hardest work, and Patrix all the hardest programming work. All I did was a little editing and tidying for easy digestion. Speaking of easy digestion, I will be presenting the TYCHOS at a science gathering next month thanks to the great efforts of our mutual f...

Re: Proving the TYCHOS model with 3D modelling

On a hunch I just logged into CluesForum to discover that Simon & Patrix have released their incredible TYCHOSIUM 3-D. This is a historical time and I hope (even though we may keep having a bounty of these as the TYCHOS continues to release new and astounding facts about our world) that you all ...

Re: The Clues Chronicle — help decide the threads to read!

Another update! (Don't expect these once per month. I am actually not sure when I will next have an opportunity to make an episode of the good ol' Chronicle but we lucked out with Mr. Honor's timing.)

Re: THE "CHATBOX"

SacredCowSlayer, I think blue might be slightly harder for human color cones to detect — hence the eerie (but pretty) effect of blue xmas lights, and slightly unnerving effect of reading blue text on bright backgrounds. I like it for modifying existing posts with a distinctive, highlighted moderator...

Re: The Clues Chronicle — help decide the threads to read!

Although I am not moderating this thread I just want to pop in now and then if CC has new media to post. There's a new episode out now! Okay, so here's the actual new direction of the show. It didn't end up being short. We really got ramped up and to talking pretty deeply about real issues instead o...

Re: Einstein and other gods of science

Wow, cool article. There is one part at the start I would call a bit naive: The process used to “facilitate” the meeting is called the Delphi Technique. This Delphi Technique was developed by the RAND Corporation for the U.S. Department of Defense back in the 1950s. It was originally intended for us...

Re: Testing TYCHOS: PVP Parallax Experiments

Earlier in the Summer, Simon and I came up with this brilliant little experiment that, we are pretty certain, should prove or disprove the hypothesized speed of Earth predicted by the (as of yet undebunked) TYCHOS. Yes, in case you are late to the party, the Simontific method, which is based on the ...

Re: THE "CHATBOX"

Dearest bro, no personal attack was meant in my e-mail to you. At all. I was not trying to besmirch your character when I say that our manner is difficult and annoying to people. Deep down, we mean well. We do a good job of orienting ourselves to a moral life. Does that mean we are perfect in our pr...
