How Can We See Black Color

Don't Cats see in the dark?

Just cause I'm going over some old posts....NO, CATS DON'T SEE IN THE DARK...they just see in a larger spectrum of light than we do. That I am superior is just a human failing (ok, may be personal, but since I am obviously superior, I can't tell)

:P

And don't you dare mention the fact that I cannot see black, in any way dismisses Obama...he screws himself over so many ways I can't even begin to find the "black" issue.

Though, if I had my druthers...I'd shoot a random senator, and a random congressman. And then I would hope that others would follow my example. I'm gonna quit paying taxes for 08. Since govenment cannot responsibly spend them, I'm not going to give it to them. When the sherrif arrives a the gate, he can read the note and determine his next action. Enter and die. I can handle up to 20 apc's and 1, maybe two Abrams main battle tanks. After that, I die, but it should go up on youtube within minutes along with formulas and procedures for causing major chaos.

I can't stop them, and never thought I could. But a 10-20 ratio is easily attainable. Anything over that is just a bonus. Dying stupidly is absurd, dying stupidly for a cause is not.

And just what did YOU eat (or perhaps drink) for supper to cause this massive puke of discontentment from an ordinarily non-violent bloke?

Me, ordinarily non-violent? Just where did I go wrong in portraying my propensity for wishing to induce lead poisoning at high velocities to large numbers of people? Subtlety, thy name is not Tom. I believe, with certainty that the Founding Fathers of the US knew way more than our Faciest politicians of today. Problem is, the only way to stop them is to use kinetic lead imprinting technologies.

With almost absolute certainty, I'd be caught and more than likely killed, but I'm almost to a point that it would be a noble cause. Problem is, it's endemic in the system. Kill 1, or 10 or 100 and nothing would change. Cockroaches look to politicians as an evolutionary step.

I'm sorry if I appear a little jaded or bitter, but it has a tendency to surface, especially in any question or answer that I may find people relying on the excuse that some one else should fix/regulate/deal with the answer

Mark, I know you are a Canuck. I was born an American, and raised in London, ON. I have dual passports, and dual citizenship. What disgusts me about America is not even a consideration in Canada. It's called Fascism. Go look it up. Canadians have embraced it. Americans have been duped into it. What program, Canadian or American, can the government run better than the people can? Answer is none. You can be a toddler all your life if you want to, but I don't need you to tell me how to live. Do it in person and lose your trachea. I will feed it to you as you choke to death on your own blood while I hold it in my hand.

Freedom is the ability to soar and crash. You can chose to live well,. or die poorly. The government has no right or responsibility to tell you otherwise. People should be free to be stupid, and suffer the consequences. When the government decides to help poor, stupid people that don't work, they do it on my behalf. I don't want them to. They are stealing money from me to do things I don't wish them to. Steal from me, eat lead.

Find me a poor Politician. You can't. They are parasites living off of us. I'm just going to quit supplying them with blood so the leaches die. I've met one politician in my 43 year lifespan that I had respect for. The rest of them, I wouldn't feed to pigs.

Lets see, 3 sets of books (if I did that with my company, I'd be in prison), 45 TRILLION dollars in debt. And I'm supposed to trust or believe in these people? I quit paying them this year. They can come and try and collect. Death will abound. I will die, probably. So will tens or hundreds of people that work for the government.

I've met my state congressional rep personally. Mr Huntsman Jr. is a decent guy,he's not his father, but he has some of the traits and that makens him far and above most politicians I've met. I've told him I'm not going to let my government rape me. He, as you can probably understand, has some serious quandries with my attitudes. What he cannot (and to his credit) and did not attempt to refute were the reasons behind my attitude.

I no longer trust any politician to do the 'right thing' as I haven't met one who even knows what it is any more.

I don't ask them to help me, but I wont let them tell me who I have to help.

Life, Liberty and the persuit of happiness. That doesn't mean a good life, it means whatever life you can provide for yourself. If you fuck everything up and end up eating pizza crusts out of a garbage bin, that's what your choices have brought you to. No one owes you happiness, just you are allowed to persue it. Fail and that's your problem. Die and that's also your problem.

Our American Government should only do 3 things: Provide for the common defence, Promote general wellfare (not guarentee but promote), and lastly, secure the blessings of Liberty. Hence you are free to achieve your dreams...and free to fail miserably and die starving in squaller it that's all you know how to do.

If you've lead a decent life and things just went wrong, I may help you. I may not. It's not the government's decision to say who I help and who I don't. If I wish to leave you dying on the street, because I know you tried to rape my friend's sister, but the government just let you go on probation, I will let you die. If I know that you've been trying your entire life but things just never worked out, I will take you into my home and help you with all of my ability. But the government can't, nor shouldn't attempt to tell me who to help. But the govenment wants my money so they can help those that they think should be helped, but who I think are just a waste of oxygen. The government argues that I can't tell who is worthy of help. Bull shit. If I think they are worthy, they can have the shirt off my back. Ever see a politician go hungry? Not on your fucking life.

I'm not bitter, I just want to be left alone to make my own decisions. New Orleans paid taxes to keep the levies working...where the fuck did that money go? Levies died, hundreds of thousands of tax payers got fucked over. (not commenting on the stupidity of people building on a flood plain...doh, it's not called a FLOOD PLAIN for nothing)or. But government had no right to build and maintain those levees anyway. The people that wanted to live there should have been paying...and I bet if they were, the levees would never have broken.

Sorry, but I ramble, and I wouldn't run out of stories or opinions if I typed non-stop for a hundred years.

I'm working on taking my life back. I've got a bid in on a little 162 acre spread in south Texas. I'll raise my own beef, chicken and vegitables. I will take the entire complex off grid. I've been playing with and reading about enough crap to combine working elements and test some of my own designs on Stirling (Wally) engine designs. I'll have a compressed air energy storage cell as well a batteries and a plethora of energy collection devices.

I have the plans for my house and sub buildings all ready to go, and with 8' thick straw bale construction with a lead/concrete mid. Underground main lining and space. The only thing necessary is an above groud access corridor. After that gets done...come and get me.

Now, what was that you said about little ol' peace loving me?

Oh my god!

Best way is to be a polititian and create polititians of similar thinking. The way you are following has no fruitful end.

Besides, I do not understand where from this subject came in original thread of seeing Black!!

Most people are keeping quiet. Me? Hell, I'm stupid...

1. So what made you think that CR4 was the appropriate forum to proclaim your reenactment of "Custer's Last Stand?!"
2. It sounds as if this batch of back-woods Meth was especially good!!!
3. Do you expect us all to be sympathetic?
4. Good luck on the chicken farm in Texas!!! The chicken are probably already infiltrated by the Secret Service. So...
5. Be paranoid! Very paranoid!!!
6. Do all eunuchs think the same?!

You get the Wooden Spoon Award, Vermin.

My termites thank you.

Just re, my beloved little Vermin

re 1: Sorry, but this little questioned turned political...not sure if I stared it, but I definitely embraced it. And what were Custers last words? "...where'd the heck did they get so many Indians?" Probably from the castle ARRRGGGGGGHHH (trails off)

re 2: No Meth, but the bathtub gin did taste kinda funny...ants, ants, all over my face...

re 3: Not for me, don't really care.

re 4 an 5: Crap! But I pity the poor Secret Service guy assigned to 'inserting' the transmitters.

re 6: Better than being Monique (bastage :P)

When white man found this land, Indians ran it. No Taxes... No Debt... Plenty Buffalo... Plenty beaver! Women did most of the work. Medicine Man free! Indian men hunted and fished all the time! White man tried to improve it... Stupid White Man

But there is still plenty of bea........ Ummm, better not go there :P

I think I might change the sig...I seem to be getting more comments on that than on my posts...and considering the contenciousness of my posts...that's saying something.

Woo hoo hoo!!! Did you just spill stink on yourself!!!

D'you suppose there's a country he can escape to for the purpose of avoiding the exception that proves the rule of "free speech" in his own country? Or the name of a really really really really good criminal lawyer well versed in constitutional law? Perhaps there's a computer in jail, so we won't miss his company.

Imagine! A country that prides itself for free speech, where you can be arrested for running off at the mouth to express your frustration just like in any third world country. Whatever happened to standing up in the bus to give your seat to an old lady?

Although, it's a little like the yelling "theatre" at a fire thing.

"Plenty beaver! Women did most of the work."

While I am not prepared to comment upon the juxtaposition of those two observations, it is quite apparent to me that there are still plenty of beaver, and that women still do most of the work.

Mark

Don't know much about the cats thing, but concur with the rest whole heartedly. However, being a submarine officer, I prefer to confine myself to a submarine and let them come try and find me.

Bad situation.

trapped in a long tube, surrounded by S...... oops

Yeah yeah, I've heard them all before. Just remember, there are many more planes in the bottom of the ocean than there are submarines in the sky.... food for thought

Yeah, but you keep tryin' (Emergency Blow)

http://www.usna.edu/Submarines/Images/emerblow.avi

Woof ! I defy anyone not to get excited looking at that. I can almost smell that taste of the sea.........

I think it was running from an amourous whale...you do know how whales get their jollies, don't you? They bite the tips off of submarines and suck the seamen out (rimshot please)

Yes, these gags have done the rounds in the UK. Personally, I blame the Germans (we do that for most things in the UK), but those 'Crazy Germans' were always very good at that type of stuff.

The only problem with your little phallic joke, is that even whales can't open up there mouths wide enough to get around our big tube!! Always remember, submariners do it deeper.

Yes, but deeper where? Since you go down 100 men and come back up 50 couples.

(it's so nice to be back in an environment where someone actually gets the theraputic value in a good insult)

only 50 couples until we break the surface, then it's 100 divorcees..... (I believe the submarine force actually defined (and/or created) insult therapy, we couldn't function without it)

Us surfies have about the same divorce rate, but usually only after we cleared the forward chain locker of Philipino's (and got the requisit shots).

There used to be a massage parlor close to where I live,... out the back was Siemens

Damn it, I don't care what the genetic testing said...none of them were mine!

Or possibly the color black is not really black. Absensce of reflection is not black? As a photographer I was absorbed in this thought for a while. Shades of gray, allows us to see black. True black covers background colors.

You could be onto something - what I see as 'orange', del might see as 'mauve' in my terms. Dels 'mauv'e could be my 'orange', and my 'mauve' could be del's 'orange'. It's just the name we give to a specific stimulus to our eyes. When we both look at a banana, we might be getting completely different brain exitement. I have no way of knowing if anyones neurons behave the same as mine when we all look at a banana.

It may be true for banana, but when one sees a bottle of a wine, every body's neurons behave the same!

Yes, you are right. What I look as orange, you may be looking as green (similar to what I see as green). But we are taught from childhood to identify and name those stimulus as the colors we call. Bit complex?

I may be sensing the leaves of tree in entirely different way than you. I may be looking leaves like Red as per your definition. But both of us are tought to say that sensing as green.

I have No way to know what you sense and you do not have way to sense what I see. !!

Exactly ! It's almost like trying to compare how two people experience pain/smell/taste etc. No wonder I'm so confused.

Color charts and sample print chip displays at paint stores seem to exhibit color intensity and hue progressions that "flow" smoothly from one color to another. If the green incorporating colors were interchanged with the orange incorporating colors, the displays would not flow.

Integrate that thought with the color frequency progression (radio waves) and that proves the order of color charts and displays is correct. Overall intensity levels could vary from person to person though.

That's the way I see it. Anyone know where I can buy ultraviolet house paint?

Well, at least we all agree that bananas are round!

How many sides does a banana have ? I don't have one handy, but they peel apart in several bits. I'm sure it's not four, that would sound silly. Even length-ways it doesn't have constant/infinite radius.

Hmmm, they do seem to have 4. I've never paused to study if different bananas have different numbers of skin sections.

Sorry Kris, but that argument denotes an Oedipus complex or at the very least, Castration anxiety. Duck and cover boys.

That took you a while to respond to - seems a little 'retentive', no ? I've no objection to what a grown man does with ducks in his own garden, but 'cover boys' ? 'Cover' is usually referred to as 'service' over here, and I can only guess that it's some allusion to a cottage industry. By-the-by, I'm a dainty Brit and always eat banana with a knife and fork. It saves my embarrassment at counting how many skins are formed by peeling one.

Black is a term. It is a general consensus for our inability to see any color in it. It is an interpretation of our optical senses to a complete lack of any color. Hidden in it could be a bottle of wine, a wedge of cheese, or a bdsm scene with numerous British politicians or a Governor from New York.

True black covers nothing, and everything as it allows no color. It doesn't mean nothing is there, except to our tiny minds. Our visual range is minuscule. But remember, if there's no light and everything is black, I'm using a shotgun <evil malicious grin>

"And we people creat (sic) problems.... Not Einstein"

So you say, but Einstein created a problem for me in his challenge to understand his concepts. Hawking, Thorne and others have extended our understanding into the mysteries of the universe, time, space, and multidimensional realities all of which are based on Mr. Einstein's posits, but essentially we are still ignorant of the full meaning of E=MC2.

Well said!

No we're not!

Ahhhh Vermin, cute as you are I know you know what you know but I know what I know when you say you know what you know and that you know when you say you know then we both know and it'd be known to all who want to know when we know it is known to us to know that you know what you know and we'll wait until you let us know. You know?

See? I told you!

Schroedinger was going to run the "Banana in the Box" experiment, but his cat (known as Deltoo) ate the banana. He had to find an alternate way to run his experiment, and Deltoo has not been seen since.

Bill

Deltoo's hasty eating probably got the better of him - it must be hard to prowl gracefully when you've got a banana-shaped body. He's surely going to pay a heavy price in the litter tray !

When will this be released in Car paint form?

And how does it interact with Radars :P

The area of discussion is visible light. Radar can still detect the car as it works on other wavelengths of Electromagnetic spectrum.

But, when this real black paint will come in car industry, you will see only driver and passengers travelling without envelop of car and surely will have accident immediately.

Might have more demand for Radar black paint than Visible light black paint...

Naughty, naughty ! I don't know if anyone has tried to build a true 'stealth' car, but Blink's '6000mpg' vehicle is fairly sleek, and still in development, so maybe he could be persuaded to add nanotubes.

Additionally, the black paint will warm the surface and the boundary layer, making the air of the boundary layer less dense and lowering drag.

It might be off-set by the sticky tyres as they heat up !

Nobody read my #21.

My God, you've electrocuted vermin !

No! It's just a phase change nanoVermin

LOL ! It's the kind of demise he'd like.

Humble apologies Kris. I didn't engage my eyes before putting post in gear.

-John

It's cool johnhohn - I was looking for sympathy votes !
