Re: Something Just Went BEZERK in the Gulf of Mexico. The US Navy just sunk a French Submarine
Given the Chinese interest in decoding the Mayan glyphs and their SIM's, I recall reading that the number 144 also features in Mayan astronomy ~ it is the time, in seconds, it takes for the disc of the Sun to set (ie the time from when the bottom edge touches the Horizon until the Sun is totally Set) on the Equator and during an Equinox. I think it was dubbed the "Solar Unit"... I'm not sure if it's relevant but some may find it interesting/helpful?
 Quoting: fellowearthling


FE: anything mentioned about a green flash the moment the sun dips below the horizon?
 Quoting: TutuWuwu

I don't recall reading that the Mayans recorded any sightings of this, although I imagine it would have been occuring then and may have been used for timing purposes. A few Solar Returns could be required before it's observed at the right time though...

This guy [link to answers.yahoo.com] has calculated that it take 143 seconds ~ or 2 minutes and 23 seconds ~ for this to take place, using some fairly detailed mathematics ~ if the green flash takes an extra second to appear then it could help explain the minor (1 second) difference too.

Edit to add: There's exactly 600 "Solar Units" in any 24 hour period too...

And is there any control for this stuff? I can easily think of a scenario where it gets out of control and eats everything in its path. Good plot for a Sy-Fy movie.
If you think about it, oil eating bacteria could get out of hand, and start going after ALL petroleum products. Like Plastics. My Volkswagen, Al Gore's Prius, you get the picture.
 Quoting: Hans The Magnificent


They could park it in the two Pacific gyres of plastic trash for starters, but nooooooooooo.
 Quoting: TutuWuwu



Great idea! There are TWO of those plastic islands in the Pacific?

North and South Hemispheres (separate current patterns)- tons of trash dumped for decades - yeppers, you betcha!

Thanks, FE! I have only observed the green flash for a split second at the moment the sun slips below the horizon. Back in the day, those of us in Lahaina would gather on the shore at sunset, daily, waiting for it. I think it is only visible on the water horizon. It is quite the visual jolt. EDIT> and totally unpredictable.

Aco had a alleged public voice chat for bezerkers. The trick is, a little box pops up "Private Chat" and I clicked on Acolyte . Waited 20 minutes while looking at box (Waiting for Acolyte to accept you" ) Never happened. Not really a public session. Public for the same In-crowd as usual.

Re: Something Just Went BEZERK in the Gulf of Mexico. The US Navy just sunk a French Submarine
Kind of disappointed. It said Acolyte was going to be there and I thought I would find out he or she. Aco would not let me in until left and I never did get in until after aco left so I never did find out. There were also some things I wanted to discuss but I appear to be blocked. Maybe I was not really invited. or so it would seem.
 Quoting: Hans The Magnificent

Hans..Acolyte IS a MALE..and had nothing to do with NOT letting you in...It's an open room, no invitations needed..and NO ONE IS BLOCKED... It's a new thing...It has glitches...We were all trying to help you, but obviously we can't see what's going on, on your end..so all we can do is try from our end...Sorry you had such a bad time of it...

This is plain unadulterated bullshit Hans...we kept trying to help you, and tell you what to do..ACO was chatting with the whole room, while he was also working..plus it might do good to remember it was the middle of the night for him..it wasn't supposed to be a private chat session...you did NOT click on the proper Icon...out beside his name on the list of who was in the room...I DID THE SAME DAMNED THING the first time...UNTIL RS told me to beat the hell out of the icon beside Acolyte's name...THEN the name Bezerker appeared up top and I got into the room...IT WAS NOT PRIVATE CHAT...IT'S an OPEN ROOM and NO ONE IS BLOCKED...

 Quoting: Hans The Magnificent

Hi Hans, pleas don't take it personally or offence. You should have clicked on the icon next to the room name i.e "BEZERKERS" and not on the icon next to my name. If you click on the icon next to my name then it opens a private chat which i wasn't monitoring or noticed because i was speaking in the open room. I Clearly said I was testing it so we all had some difficulty at first to get the mics and sound to work lol. I set it up without any blocking/banning or any passwords so they anyone and everyone could get in. It was NOT a private room.
Not much was discussed as we were all still trying it out. I Wanted an open chat as i don't want to post on this thread anymore as some of the new subject matter is not directly related to bezerk. My official involvement ended on the 19th. I still have to post parts of the final burst then I'm done.(There are forced delays which I have to obay)
