In the previous article, we learned how the brain receives information from our senses and then reconstructs “reality” for us. This process is known as Saltory Conduction and it can be fooled and project a different interpretation from others observing the same incident. In this article, we will take the discussion further and question whetherContinue reading “Are We Real? Part Two”

This may at first appear to be a stupid question. Of course, we are real. Ask another question like, “What is real?” The world is real. Everything around us is real. We can reach out and touch something and it is there. These are all commonsense answers to the question of reality. However, if weContinue reading “Are We Real? Part One”

Parallel universes or as they are now more commonly known, the multiverse, have been around as a concept almost as long as science fiction became a genre. Our visible universe is three-dimensional with the fourth dimension generally accepted as time.

This has been pretty much the case forContinue reading “Pope Joan”

If you are ever there, look for a crowd of people gathered around one picture. That will be the Mona Lisa.Continue reading “Mysteries of the Mona Lisa”

We have all heard of Homeopathy and some may have tried it or know someone who has. The feedback can range from the remedy worked and I feel better, to there was no improvement whatsoever.

They live underwater all their lives exist in caves in the Balkans. These underwater caves stretch for many,Continue reading “The Diet and Longevity of the Olm”

One of my favourite books was written by the late Douglas Adams and is called “The Hitch Hiker’s Guide to the Galaxy.” It has been turned into a movie, a television series and a radio series. At this point, I must issue a spoiler warning. Part of the story is searching for the answer toContinue reading “The Answer is 42”

The Moon is covered in craters. These have been made by the millions of meteors that have crashed onto the surface over the past several billion years.

Therefore, there is nothing toContinue reading “Mystery of the Linne Crater”
