Ha-ha-ha!

The wizard at that place should have been called Caractacus, then I could have given you a nickname.

"The Invisible Wizard"

I guess I can call you 'Ancotar' instead.

MMMM!!!! sausage Rolls

As long as I keep mentioning B1 or B2

Believe me, I look better invisible

Think I saw that debate on Kung Fu

That's the spirit.

Right, that evil sod Slater has put me in the mood to spend a couple of hours wandering around Oblivion (no tree has ever fallen over, so I can't answer the question_. Catch you guys later.

Some people think way TOOOO much

Physics gives me a headache which is why I stopped doing it in year 9

If your going to talk about sound you might as well enter colour into the equation

Same concept

We did colour as well. I think in the same way as I did with sound. The frequency of light exists, but it's that frequency that hits your eye and converts it into something the brain can recognise (in this case 'colour').

Also, each conversion cannot be 100% exactly the same for every brain/pair of eyes. So while you see green grass, I also see green grass and we both receive the same frequency, but our eyes and brain may convert that frequency differently so that though we call the grass 'green', my green could be totally different to yours.

How do I know that my green is your yellow? How do I know that my version of green is normal, or correct? My brain recognises the frequency and logs it with the associating word that I learnt from my parents.

Colour only exists in the brain.

Errr.....time for bed!

Sorry, didn't realise this would be such a hot topic for you guys hee hee. I go and see a friend twice a week who is a Physicist and our conversations always usually end up on theoretical physics and other stuff like that. Enough to turn your brain to jelly.

Yes Buttsie be nice to me or you won't be getting any kinky posts on my birthday or birthday party food. Actually, Mummy Hex is doing my birthday party food for me !grin!

Well done, Mummy Hex. Hope little Harmony is spoiled rotten om her big day.

As Buttsie says, some topics just hurt the brain too much. If I've said this before, I apologise, but at the age of about ten I tried hard to think about the distances involved in space: Earth to sun, Earth to outer planets, our solar system to the outermost part of the galaxy etc, and my brain started melting when I began wondering about the size of the universe.

Easier, and less taxing on the thought processes, to talk about sausage rolls and Tv shows and beautiful women (much more fun too).

Great philosophy essays revisited.

In fact, most concepts only exist in our brains- and language allows us to develop common descriptions through sharing such contacts.

However, Ludwig Wittgenstein showed how inadequate language is for such sharing.....there are 6 million colours that the human brain can pick up, yet most people think there are 10.
