    the year and photo has brought back a lot of memories..good..and bad!

    the reality is that no one really cares a damn about what you do with your hard earned money..if you want to tear it up in shreds..or use it as toilet paper..then..that is entirely your own choice

    personally..looking back..if i only knew then..what i now know..well.. let's just say i would have retired a lot earlier than i did

    unfortunately..you can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear..no matter how hard you try..so..why waste so much time and effort on trying to do things that are not worthwhile

    bla..bla..bla..the stories could go on and on..the riddles and rhymes..the pictures and charts..the talk about this..the talk about that..in the end it really doesn't matter one little bit..as..the only thing that really matters is the way your brain perceives and processes information

    everlasting life..the great duality that was introduced to start controlling the masses..funny..it is now scientifically proven that everlasting life does in fact exist..it just happens to be a different species than the human..and..in between..there are numerous other evolutionary developments that have enabled certain species to survive in what is considered unsurvivable conditions..such as..the ability to survive in outer space..come back to life after being frozen..shut down nearly all functions that enable existence..even down to the level of removing the dendrites that connect neural pathways..only to rejuvenate these dendrites again to re- enable existence

    science fiction..not at all..it is the realities of life..but we don't have time for such trivial things..as our brains are pre-occupied with far more important things :)

    Yes, the little (microscopic) animal ( named Tardigrade) in the picture below:

    it can survive in impossible (for any other leaving being) condition, like outer space...

    maybe not the point M4-1 wanted to make but still a curiosity that may need satisfaction:D

    yes..it was initially called "kleiner Wasserbär" due to the way it walks :)

    after been exposed in space..it came back to life but died soon after..but it lived long enough to reproduce..truly amazing stuff

    same with the immortal jellyfish..when it encounters disease or other life threatening episodes..a little bit of it "breaks off" and it starts the development cycle all over again..immortality

    they spend trillions on weapons of mass destruction that can wipe out human life in the blink of an eye..but even the kleiner Wasserbär can withstand radiation that will kill humans..

    imagine if they spent all that money on genetic research into these truly amazing creatures..now..that would of course be the correct thing to do..but..if nothing has changed since 1580..the odds of it happening now are next to impossible :)

    I don't get it: o_O
    I was expecting AC or BD...
    With AB, time disappears...

    Oh, I think we should consider ourselves lucky they do not spend the military budget on genetic research, the weapons that could come from that are way more terrifying than the nuclear ones.

    This last year of natural disaster is indication enough of what biological weapons could do...

    On the other end, some of the latest advancement in molecular biology (CRISPR, is an incredibly powerful tool for gene manipulation) are going to revolutionize medicine, agriculture and anything having to do with life in the coming years.

    My ex scientist mind is excited by the realm of possibilities, my ethic and rational mind is worried that humanity have reached a level of powerfulness to manipulate life that is at least as significant as the power of the atom but being not so showy as a nuclear explosion may be way more dangerous if (as it will inevitably be, soon or later) used for evil...

    AC would not be much use as it would be "after the fact" :D
    AD would be quite useless as well as it would not be a box:D
    AB instead...

    I think the time dimension is connected but not the main element in drawing the box, I think it is in what happen when price reach the border of the box... might be wrong but to trade with low risk you need some references otherwise it would be CHAOS...:banghead:

    Thats new...
    It used to be: react to levels; wait for some form of confirmation that a support holds...
