Physics according to Rip

The only photograph of me that I like!

Over hundreds of thousands of years our species evolved a pervasive classical perception.
This perception is so entrenched that far too many of us really think, "What you see is what you get."
      While this is good enough for everyday activities,
            including flying to the Moon,
                  it is profoundly inadequate for really comprehending Reality.

About one hundred years ago we started figuring out that reality is, at a deeper level, quantum mechanical.
      To go beyond a superficial understanding of the universe
            we must break free of the classical constraints
                  our evolutionary past has imposed upon us.

McCloskey Quote







        I got into a fight with 1, 3, 5, 7, and 9.

        The odds were against me.

        I found 5 to be the meanest one.

        I would say, "impressive", except, this is just an average joke.








Bud Haggert with An Important Message:





Dave Rondot (YouTube)

This is the first time Turbo Encabulator was recorded with picture. I shot this in the late 70's at Regan Studios in Detroit on 16mm film. The narrator and writer is Bud Haggert. He was the top voice-over talent on technical films. He wrote the script because he rarely understood the technical copy he was asked to read and felt he shouldn't be alone. We had just finished a production for GMC Trucks and Bud asked since this was the perfect setting could we film his Turbo Encabulator script. He was using an audio prompter referred to as "the ear". He was actually the pioneer of the ear. He was to deliver a live speech without a prompter. After struggling in his hotel room trying to commit to memory he went to plan B. He recorded it to a large Wollensak reel to reel recorder and placed it in the bottom of the podium. With a wired earplug he used it for the speech and the "ear" was invented. Today every on-camera spokesperson uses a variation of Bud's innovation. Dave Rondot (me) was the director and John Choate was the DP on this production. The first laugh at the end is mine. My hat's off to Bud a true talent.










IN QUANTUM PHYSICS, "REALITY" REALLY IS WHAT WE CHOOSE TO OBSERVE
(I would have written "Blue Pill reality" depends upon what experimental parameters we select.)
This paper reports a "delayed choice quantum eraser" experiment (1999) proposed by Scully and Drühl in 1982.

Toronto's Finest

In 2017 an 18-year-old man was caught stealing a tie, a dress shirt, and a pair of socks from a Walmart store in Toronto, Canada.

Walmart reported the incident and Police Constable Niran Jeyanesan had a conversation with the man.

Rather than arrest him, Constable Jeyanesan decided to buy the young man some new clothes to wear to his job interview.

Four days later, the young man was given a job.

If you don't understand why I would never consider voting for Biden, you either don't know Biden, or you find him to be an acceptable candidate to represent your point of view.

I know Biden for his positions and voting record over many years. Biden is not better than Trump by any meaningful measure. We need to be looking to improve the situation in this country. Neither of these candidates has anything to offer to repair the damage done over the past several decades. Neither is capable of speaking truth to power.

Perhaps we may someday have an opportunity to participate in developing details of how we can create a more just society. I don't hold out much hope for that becoming a Reality.
