Just public opinion

The movie 12 Monkeys had a very large affect on me at a young age. Primarily Brad Pitt's rant about how people perceive things to be correct about the world by agreeing with the norm of the group and shun any different idea's as crazy. This has become a deep part of my moral structure. Part of me will always wonder if I buck trends just to do so or once I have a reason I'm more willing to except them and jump.

With my learning of the dangers of man made oils (Corn, Palm...) I have made many changes in my eating. I now eat saturated fats instead. This being very different than how many North American's think. I will always wonder if I'm wrong and I feel confident that it's the best thing for me. The problem is I'm also betting on this with my daughter's health as well as my own. This is a horrifying realization for me, but also a wonderful one. I feel that by knowing and acting on my info I can start the change in eating at a very critical time. Before I get to old that I can't change much and my daughter can grow up in a way that is ahead of the times.  I think that the food sold to us will be full of the bad oils for 10-20 years still. By making the changes now my daughter can live her entire life in a healthier way.

Pondering Light

If a photon is traveling from the surface of a star to a detector in space it will not experience time. What would the photon experience? A photon would move instantaneously from surface of sun to detector. It could be said to be everywhere on that path or every path at the same time. (detector's point of view of time) The photon snaps to “reality” by an interaction with a partial. This is the photon experiencing time. A sudden shift from no time to full time. This being the cause of the probabilistic wave function collapse.

Slow Inflation

I was on the couch 1am-ish with my daughter sleeping on my lap and I started to think about frame dragging of a black hole. When space/time is stretched as it is pulled into a black hole the flow of time is being slowed down to almost nothing.  If a white hole is on the other end of all that, what would the out put of space/time be like? Hmm, maybe the flow of time would be extremely slowed and speed up over time. If the big bang was created by a white hole, would the flow of time of the universe have to been speed up or maybe still speeding up. Is this why older people feel time passing faster? ... that's a leap. I don't think anyone could notice time changing speed.
