Hello, I had a quick skim of this thread and your paper. The content of your work seems to be so far beyond the lay person's understanding of physics that it's very hard to judge whether there is anything substantial to what you say, or whether it is all just random words. It would be helpful for my understanding if you could explain 'negative energy' in lay terms. My assumption is that this is actually positive energy derived from anti-matter particles... that is, a mirror of our everyday world. Is that correct? I'm thinking along the lines of the Dirac equation, and specifically this discussion: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dirac_equation#Hole_theory As for your questions, the creation of a TW would represent a new age of humanity. We'll never be ready for those, but that's not to say they shouldn't be encouraged. Regarding the discovery of intelligent ETs, I think this is improbable within the first decade of TW technology being established simply because of the due diligence required before blindly groping about other galaxies.

I also answered this. I'm often probing new possibilities, each with different success rates. [Note that I don't have an addictive streak, so I approach all this in a cold calculating manner ] Blackjack - you can't card count online as they shuffle every deal (grrr), but you can take advantage of introductory offers and what I believe is a 'beginners luck' phase where they tweak the cards in your favour to get you hooked. You have to play perfect odds, obviously. Poker - I found this really hard and too easily corrupted. You have to know the perfect plays in an instant, but you'll never be faster than a poker bot. Avoid. Sports Gambling - make use of arbitrage opportunities by comparing different sites. The bet market is far less fluid than the stock market. I get bored of this though. Financial Gambling - by this I mean betting on the close value of the FTSE 100. Volatility is your friend, allowing you to cover each position as you go. Requires lots of attention. Spreadbetting - I guess this doesn't really count. I use spreadbets to short the long positions I hold elsewhere, e.g the price of gold, saving me the trouble of selling. Games - I used to play worldwinner.com, where I could make decent money playing whack-a-mole (ahem), which it turned out I was pretty good at. There was one guy in Canada that could beat me but otherwise I was up there. They don't offer whack-a-mole any more. Of all these I've made most money playing Blackjack, BUT you do have to play very mechanically.

Now to that I might be able to contribute something sensible! I've worked in the games industry for the last 7 years and have had plenty of contact with most of the large (and many of the small) games companies in Europe and North America. I'm a technophile, and a mathematician by training. It also turns out that I'm pretty good at saving my income (HDTV and other gadgets notwithstanding) which is why I have an interest, though little expertise, in investments. I've researched and tried many areas: spreadbetting, blackjack, betfair, funds, stocks, premium bonds... though I've not yet gone short on equities. I'm happy with high risk, unhappy with high charges. I'm also on the green side of the fence. Funny though Jeremy Clarkson is, I don't share his views. My interest in this site, therefore, is the (sometimes paradoxical) intersection between 'green' and 'investment'. I'm more likely to post questions than answers, especially on the latter, but I have no qualms about doing so. What else do you want to know? My top ranked artist on Last.FM is David Bowie.

Hi, my first post on my first thread - I may have the focus misplaced. Anyway, I like this page on wiki: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green_economics
