sorry to burst your bubble but your machine doesnt work. i built one base off this drawing and it only lights up th coils to red and make thrust in a circular direction.

hmmmm, this is the first time i've heard that. my guess is, you did not use enough duct tape.

no th electricity was going in the wrong places to make its own gravity. though i have built a machine that can do this. yours can work you just have to add some coils and a lot of brass.

ah okay, thanks for the tip. i had some coils on hand and the brass truck comes by on Tuesdays, i'll get some next week.

It's a prototype, but we have high hopes for it!

Oddly enough. And they are not supposed to be interconvertible.

did we talk about gravity before? the secret, secret force, clue to the world as we know it, or better, as we do not know it? i am fascinated by gravity

hmmmm. I don't think so. Yes, the force that has not so far been fitted into a unified field theory. I find it fascinating too.

Gravity - the curvature of space, or a force exchanged by particles, or somehow both - I have read some mind-bending books on string theory and cosmology which try to deal with it.

you can always try darker gravity and thinner light.
or try another button...

i love your wordplay

there have been unpredicted results. some of the buttons are not responding. the man hopes to rejoin his colleague so they can decide what to do next. he is not in any immediate danger. as far as he knows.

i am afraid, and hoping in the same time, that you have invented the time machine.

that would be good and then the thickness of the air and light would be of no importance.

RichardLeach In reply to TheCollagist [2010-03-08 17:26:03 +0000 UTC]

well yes, but it is very much not safe, no one knows exactly how it works. there is the possibility of being lost.

It is somewhat related to taking the M Train to get back to the F train [link]

My worst fears confirmed! This is what happens when a body steps on a treadmill! Those things should be banned!

We need a Congressional hearing into thick gravity and light loss!
