Rohair's theoretical thoughts

brainstorming is a very fun and interesting thing to do sometimes. i do it all the time and come up with crazy ideas that i never tell anybody, so i am putting them on here for people to read if they would like. most thoughts are based around my studying that i do in my spare time and may or may not be realistically possible, but they are just thoughts. i base my assumptions and ideas around stuff i read, and try to be as unbiased as possible. in the field of physics, being biased about ones ideas is very popular because nobody wants to be proven wrong (at least while still alive) and mainstream ideas usually rule the thought processes of most people. i try to not be that way. i take all information i know and try to deduce what can be wrong and what can be correct. of course, i am far from being a theoretical physicist, so my ideas probably are not totally correct, but hey, neither are some physicists ideas. if you would like to add to my ideas or add your opinion, just let me know and if it is a good argument, then i will post it, with your credit of course. i love thinking about this stuff and hopefully you will find it at least somewhat interesting also. i may also post some other rants that have nothing to do with physics because i may get bored some saturday night because i dont have anybody to talk to and feel like ranting about something that bothers me. or maybe both. who knows? maybe i do. maybe i dont. maybe you do. maybe the little mouse sitting under your bed knows. maybe thats who. or whatever. yeah.........ill shut up now, so read my rants.

Big Bang Plasmology?

NOTE: before reading this thought, you may want to read about the big bang theory and plasma cosmology to get a general idea of what they are. i have posted some links here to other sites for more information on the subjects. if you already know what they are or just dont care to know, then alrighty.
 
 
      most big bang theorists (perhaps all) consider the big bang to be the definite origin of our universe. when confronted with flaws in the theory or with new observations that do not agree with it, they create new theories to try to make the big bang work. same thing with plasma cosmologists, except they will present anything they can find to make the big bang look false. indeed, plasma cosmology poses many observations and truths that contradict the big bang, but the big bang theory cannot be totally wrong. the big bang is the biggest and most supported theory in modern physics, so of course there has to be at least some real truths that support it. but then again, when Ptolemy presented his idea of the earth being the center of the universe and the sun and planets rotating around it, everybody agreed with him, especially the church. Ptolemy's geocentric universe was accepted as fact for over one thousand years! thats a very long time. it was after those thousand years that Copernicus' ideas of a heliocentric universe (sun being at the center) were published, which at first nobody agreed with it, but 100 years later was proven to be correct by Galileo Galilei.
 
      i guess one way you can look at the debate over the origin of our universe to be like that of the debate of the structure of the universe. the big bang theory takes the position of Ptolemy's geocentric universe and plasma cosmology is the idea to disprove it, like Copernicus' heliocentric universe. but if one looks at the situation of Ptolemy's ideas, he based them on what he observed in the night sky, which was the planets and the sun moving around in circles and he was staying still, so one could probably say that from his point of view, he was correct. so maybe in the same sense the big bang theory is correct. it fits some observations, such as Edwin Hubble's discovery that the very distant galaxies move away from us at a greater velocity than the galaxies nearer to us. that observation helps to support the idea of expansion of our universe, which according to big bang theorists, is the result of the big bang. and as i was typing those last sentences, i realized that Hubble's observation could be looked at as an apparent observation, just from our point of view. and according to Einstein's special theory of relativity (not the general theory) just because objects look like they are moving one way, does not mean that they are actually moving that way to another observer. take for example a person in a moving car who drops an apple out of the window. to that person, the apple looks like it drops straight down to the ground because it maintains the same velocity that the car is traveling, but to someone who is standing alongside the road sees the apple falling in a downward curve in relation to the car's path. so neither of the observations are wrong...they may seem very different, but both are absolutely correct because of their relative motions. so just because it looks as if the galaxies are moving away from us, does not necessarily mean they are moving away from us, but instead maybe we are moving away from them. i am sure i am definitely not the first person to have thought of that idea, but i have never read about it before, so who really knows.
 
      but back to the original thought. although big bang theory does have flaws, it does not mean it is totally wrong. actually, instead of calling it a theory, perhaps it should be labeled more of an idea. then, one can agree with parts and disagree with the others, whereas a theory, one must agree with the entire theory or disagree with it. i dont like to think in terms of all or nothing.
 
      one big thing about plasma cosmology that is difficult for me to accept is the fact that it predicts a universe that is infinite and ever changing. the universe has always been here and will always be here. how did it get here? how did the particles and elements develop and how did everything else develop. well we know that matter has come together over time to develop all of what we see, but how could it have been there forever and just recently (within the past 100 billion years, which in comparison to infinity is not much at all) have developed into planets, stars, galaxies, clusters, and superclusters? it had to have begun somewhere and at some time. but when, where, and how is what is extremely difficult to comprehend. plasma cosmology says that it has taken at least a couple hundred billion years for the superclusters of galaxies that we can see today to have formed, but the big bang says that the universe is no more than 20 billion years old...huge problem. and we cannot ignore observations, because we can observe the massive superclusters today. for an idea of how huge they are, they are about a billion miles long, a few hundred million light years wide and a hundred million light years thick. that is absolutely gigantic.
 
      so right there is substantial evidence against the big bang. or at least the one that we are familiar with. i have an idea about this problem. if the big bang theory is correct, then the age of our universe would be approximately 10-20 billion years old. but for that to be the case, then the velocity of the galaxies today must have been much much greater in the past, which would result in the massive clusters. it seems highly unlikely for the velocity of the galaxies to slow over time since nobody knows of any force that could slow them down. it cant be gravity because gravity is much too weak. electromagnetism? probably not. maybe there is a force that can slow it down. and maybe there is not, who knows? but there are lots of stuff that we dont know about yet. im sure there is. if there is such a force, then the big bang theory would be even more believable to me than it is right now.
 
      the big bang as we know it probably is not true. that means we either need to abandon it totally, which would be extremely difficult due to all the supporters and popular theories that rely on it, or go back and reexamine the evidence and come up with a more believable theory. right now, plasma cosmology seems to make much more sense to me than the big bang theory. i am still in the process of learning about plasma cosmology and the ideas of the big bang (currently reading two books: Stephen Hawking's A Brief History of Time, and Eric J. Lerner's The Big Bang Never Happened. i highly suggest both since they both have great ideas in them, even if you dont plan on studying physics.) who knows, maybe both theories are right in certain ways. if that is the case, that would be one crazy theory...ha...big bang plasmology. the idea of there being a big bang and a universe that is ruled not by gravity, but by electromagnetism and the mass containing a majority of plasma. ha, not likely, but its an interesting thought. well i think im done for now stating my thoughts on the debate. ill probably post another rant about it later after i learn more and develop more thoughts.

Words? bah!

      i have determined that i do not like words. why do i need to speak? i dont, really. well, sometimes it can be a bit helpful, but most of the time, i have nothing to say. and when i do have something to say, i can never get it out right. unless im doing this...like typing on here...this is like the only time i think i can get my true feelings and words out. actually words are cool...what am i talking about? i think i just hate talking...thats it, i hate talking. maybe i should be a mute. i think i could pull that off. i usually just mess up conversations when i talk...thats why i enjoy listenin more. and i never know what to say to people when i listen to them. i like to listen to them, but never know what to say. thats why i say stuff like "thats cool" "that really sucks" "aw maaaaan" "bah" "of course..." "googoogabamafoo" and "?". yes i say question mark. except its much harder to say than it looks. my mind does not think in words usually. my mind always sees pictures and then sometimes i see patterns and relate things to numbers. but words usually come last to my mind. i guess thats why im not good at english, but good at math and science....i just dont think in words. when i do think in words, it usually starts out as jibberish and evolves into literate words. maybe i should just not talk anymore. perhaps ill have to do that. maybe for at least a day. oooooooor, maybe i should just not talk when i dont need to. which is actually quite a bit.
 
      bah!......bahbahbahbahbahbah! im frustrated now. words have frustrated me. or maybe im just being weird. yeah i think thats it...im just being really weird. i need to stop being so weird cause im a weird weirdo. ha..its funny how words lose all meaning after you say them a lot. vacuuummmm. vaaaaaacuuuuuummm. vacuum vacuum vacuum vacuum vacuum vacuum vacuum vacuum cauuvm vacumma vuuaumc vaucjaem vaucune......who comes up with words anyway? vacuum is possibly one of the weirdest words for something so weird. im saying weird a lot cause i cant think of any other word to use (roger has a big vocabulary). i heard a great word this week. it came from the mouth of ron. schmeeglyboo. its a great word. say it with me now....SCHMEEGLYBOO. yes of course, back to the jibberish thing.         who writes the dictionary? i wish i had a say in what words would go in the dictionary. did you know that Stephen Hawking is in the dictionary? apparently he is a noun. Haw-king (ho'king), n. Stephen William, born 1942, English physicist. i was looking up some other word and saw him in there. how come he gets a definition and other people dont? Hendrix isnt in there. neither is Ghandi...of all people i would have expected Ghandi to be in there....especially before Stephen Hawking. dont get me wrong...Stephen Hawking is a smart man and i enjoy reading his books, but why is he in the dictionary before Ghandi? maybe they didnt like Ghandi and decided not to put him in there. it wouldnt surprise me.
 
      so yeah, i dont like talking. unless your really cool and dont mind my weirdness and your interesting and have a lot to talk about so i dont have to talk to much. theres not many people i can talk to very long without that awkward silence settling in. i hate the awkward silence. ha...maybe thats another reason i dont talk. and speaking of not talking, im gonna stop now. its late and i need to stop ranting cause i need sleep because i have to work tomorrow and fun stuffness and bah and good bye.  
 
update   apparently i spelled gandhi ghandi....maybe thats why i couldnt find him in the dictionary...but i dont feel like looking right now so somebody else can look for me....but hey, i still think hendrix should be in there.

...i just dont know

      sometimes i wish i did know...that would be a good thing. i hate not knowing. but i usually dont know. thats why i say "i dont know" a lot. usually when i say it i really mean it. i never know whats going on. which is a bad thing. sometimes ignorance is great but other times you just want to know. im tired of wanting to know. bah i say. bah i say today, but i just may slay the day with the leymay in a way, but ney i refuse to pay the ray for what he say on that fine day.....?
 
      i wish i could read people's minds so then i could see what they are thinking. it would be much easier than guessing, and a lot more accurate as well. im just horrible at guessing people's thoughts...especially girls. girls are just confusing. so confusing its annoying. maybe thats why girls hate me so much. or maybe im just boring. maybe both. yeah, probably both. if you havent figured it out by now, you can probably tell i dont have much of a life. i come home from school or work and do homework and play games and then go to sleep only to wake up and go to either school or work and then come home to play games and do homework and then go to sleep again to wake up the next day and everyday to repeat it all over again.
 
      i just cant wait for college. then no more work (at least not until i need a job), no more being bored all the time, and lots of girls (hopefully at least some worth talking to). but knowing my luck ill get to college and ill be struggling to make new friends and the girls will still hate me and ill probably have to get a job right away since im crazy broke and im gonna have to get tons of loans. yay, cant wait. i probably shouldnt be so pessimistic about people. i think i have discovered that the only thing i am ever really pessimistic about is people. i just never know what to expect from them (because i cant read their minds!).
 
      im gonna try to stop being so pessimistic about people. i just think that when i speak to people im just annoying them or something. and im just not comfortable around most girls cause im pretty sure they hate me for some reason. maybe i smell bad or something. or maybes its just that im not attractive. girls usually say looks dont matter, but hah!, i dont believe them. girls are so immature. and so are guys. i hate high school. and work. and boomers. and those things that "weedleweedleweedleooooooooooo" and jump like 6 feet in the air and then fly circles around your head until you are dizzy and fall down and then they land next to you and a littler thing jumps out of the thing and goes "hubedeebubub bagoooo!" and then pokes me in the eye. i swear one of these days ill catch him. im not insane. quiet you.
 
      but yeah, im gonna be more optimistic from now on. im just gonna talk to whoever i wanna talk to and if they dont wanna talk then bah to them. im trying to keep friendships goin but some people just dont care, so whatever. i just cant wait til college...mature girls and people. i think thats my girl problem....girls just arent mature enough for me. ive already had a 24 year old and about a 35 year old tell me they would date me if i was older. i dont know of anybody else though. yeah that may be it. people arent mature enough. high school sucks. bring on the college and fun. i think i know now. i have talked myself into knowing. and for some reason im putting it on here. oh well. i should really come up with some better rants. next one i promise will be better. if not, you can throw a rock at me. not a big one. just one big enough that it would hurt but not bust my head open and kill me. unless you wanna kill me. hmmm...now i wonder who wants to kill me. ill just assume everybody unless said so otherwise. hmmmm...idea!
