We have photons going 0m in 0s so their speed is: 0/0 = infinity = 300 000 000m/s.

The Earth is not Accelerating Upwards.
Willem F Esterhuyse replied to Willem F Esterhuyse's topic in Trash Can
If space accelerates in towards the center of Earth, where does it go? -
The Earth is a ball. How can one side and the opposite side accelerate upwards (their local "up").

I Know What Consciousness Is!

You can't will it to flap when the wind isn't blowing. -
It is a geometric structure in the body, made of thought-objects.

Mean free path is a minimum for objects at 0 K.

The "mean free path" of molecules is not new (I may not have the term 100 percent equivalent). One can picture in mind molecules going around, bumping into each other and the walls of a container and easily see there can be no negative distance between them.

Especially talk of infinities are mental constructs with no physical proof that they exist. Cantor proves the Reals are uncountable by constructing an infinite list of reals paired to a natural number. Such a list can be constructed conceptually in mind, but it cannot be physically produced to check that it exits. This is why I say mathematics is a Fairy Tale.

No, because there is no negative free paths for molecules.

They postulated a quantity called "phlogiston". On a abstract level it makes sense.

A general object. In body A. Then reason like Syllogism: replace "water" with "coldness" and compare with the left sentence.
-
The logic is: it gets to have a larger quantity of coldness. And water flows to make a larger quantity of water.
-
When something cools down it gets colder, hence it's coldness increased, so can't you say that coldness flowed into the warmness?

In this paper (see attached, last hint on the page included): "theta < kappa" means "theta is equivalent to <kappa" because "|P(theta)| = 2theta <= |H(kappa)|". Is this wrong?

Usage of the Empty Set.
Willem F Esterhuyse replied to Willem F Esterhuyse's topic in Analysis and Calculus
Ha, ha. I can't quote it because it is in non ASCII letters. Paper: "The Foundations of Mathematics.pdf" at www.academia.edu. I was mistaken, it does not say that. -
I've read a paper wherein there is a definition and formula amounting to "there exist some y an element of the Empty Set". This is nonsensical because Empty Set = {x: x not= x}. there is no "y not= y".

Problem With the Deduction Theorem.
Willem F Esterhuyse replied to Willem F Esterhuyse's topic in Speculations
I made an error: (true -> B) = B, (true -> B) not= true.
