Harry Potter

If kids read Harry Potter....

than (almost) anyone (Language issues aside) is ABLE to understand and learn what is on this website.

Seven!

Wayne's note: I tried reading the 1st book of Harry Potter a few years ago - and I was unable to get past the first fifty pages.
I remember reading the entire Lord of the Rings Trilogy (and Hobbit) and countless other fictional books as a child. So -- I have "credentials."
Either I'm too much of an idiot now to "Get" Harry Potter -- or it is just too FICtional - FAK(e)tional for me.

 

Pandora's Box / Jar

Are you familiar with the Greek myth about Pandora's Box?
If not, or you need a refresher - watch the video below.

Another good explanation --  Myths & Legends - Pandora's Box (E2BN)

Pandora (Wiki) - In Greek mythology, Pandora was the 1st WO-MAN.

Sounds similar to Adam & Eve, and the serpent eh?

Whichever story you prefer - the result is the same - we are drowning in a sea of information, feelings,
weight of history, CULTure, etc...but there is a way out - and it is in our collective knowledge.
That is what this website is for - the relevant knowledge that may help you. Learn as much as you need to "close the box"
and / or stop eating "Apples."  Each soul must find their "own way."

Do You Think Science... (Vimeo)

 
By asking a group of space physicists the unanswerable Semiconductor reveal the hidden motivations driving scientists to the outer limits of human knowledge.
In an attempt to find meaning within the question, they open a Pandora's Box of limitations within science itself, revealing their own philosophical confines.
Issues of faith, medicine and the laws of matter are raised to illustrate the infinitely complex universe we live in.
