I'm reading a good book on anti-gravity.
I can't put it down!

Did you read the book on angular momentum? I think it was a spin-off.

"The Practical Pyromaniac" - I found this book interesting

I found it repulsive.

I got a book on the quantum photoelectric effect, but every time I turn the light on to find it, it jumps to a higher shelf.

I'm not high enough to understand what you mean. And I'm Dutch, so that's probably saying something.

My sources tell me that a secret survey carried out by the Wampeter Group for Microsoft to assess the mass-psychological reaction to using "Windows 9" showed that a significant percentage of key decision makers ... people who could make the choice to move hundreds of thousands of machines in networks to the next version of Windows ... were World War II baby-boomers now in high executive positions.
These decision-makers negative pre-cognitive reaction to "nine" was based on their memories of how significant Kurt Vonnegut's masterpiece, "Cat's Cradle" was in their adolescence, and the fact that, in the novel, "Ice9" [^] was the substance ... a polymorph of water solid at room temperatures ... that threatened mankind with extinction, and the the planet with frozen oceans.
In addition the wide-variety of other cultural expressions that spun-off of Vonnegut's book over the following decades [^] all reinforced the contemporary meme of "something-followed-by-nine" as dangerous, toxic, even threatening apocalypse.
Microsoft, like all other corporations these days ... aware of such classic marketing horrors as the flop of the GM "Nova" car in Spanish speaking countries ... "nova" in Spanish means "no go," conducts surreptitious research and surveillance, including testing subliminal insertions of content into television, and radio broadcasts: all of this, of course, sub-contracted out to multiply-nested layers of independent sub-contractors on a need-to-know in order to create plausible deniability.
Of course, this is all further proof that this is the "best of all possible worlds."

I don't know whether any of the higher ups at uSoft are Lennon Fans [^] but I had a feeling that the obsession with the number 9 might have had something to do with it.
Quote: Revolution 9 was an unconscious picture of what I actually think will happen when it happens; just like a drawing of a revolution. All the thing was made with loops. I had about 30 loops going, fed them onto one basic track. I was getting classical tapes, going upstairs and chopping them up, making it backwards and things like that, to get the sound effects. One thing was an engineer's testing voice saying, 'This is EMI test series number nine'. I just cut up whatever he said and I'd number nine it. Nine turned out to be my birthday and my lucky number and everything. I didn't realise it: it was just so funny the voice saying, 'number nine'; it was like a joke, bringing number nine into it all the time, that's all it was.

Have you ever just looked at someone and knew the wheel was turning but the hamster was dead?
Trying to understand the behavior of some people is like trying to smell the color 9.
