The Ides — 11 Comments

  1. Latin Class:

    In March, July, October, May
    The IDES fall on the fifteenth day
    The NONES the seventh; all else besides
    Have two days less for Nones and Ides.

  2. Isaac Asimov once commented that the Roman calendar set some kind of record for inconvenience.

  3. People are losing the spirit of the Ides of March. It’s not about just stabbing. It’s about coming together to stab in groups.

  4. The Moon-Earth-Sun makes a three body problem.

    Based upon Newton’s Calculus and experimentation, he could never create a general solution for his gravity based on 3 bodies. Two bodies were the limit.

    People were told that math describes the universe.

    The Three Body Problem remaining unsolved for the solar system, is a serious problem for standard cosmology. Gravity, the only force that has not yet been unified in physics.

    This problem is analogous to the Fermi Paradox or more explicitly, the speed of light changing. It would cause certain fundamental questions to be raised once again in physics.

    In parallel with the 72 anomalies of H20, water, the amount of things humans don’t know that they don’t know, is quite substantial. It is most likely increasing.

    Things won’t get boring at this rate.

    So true. But as more and more people lose the spirit it’s really hard to get a group together. So this year I had to stab the ceremonial bottle of Caesar salad dressing alone.

  6. I can’t seem to post on this blog right now. It’s very very disturbing.

    In the meantime I’m putting this message on all my newer posts to alert people that for now I’ll be posting at the new site. So follow this link for further updates.

    I sincerely hope this problem will be fixed soon, but I have no idea whether it will be possible. At any rate, the new blog is still operating very well (for now), and I can always post there. So for now, consider that the place to go to read my work.
