MAYAN Prophecy .

Actually the turn of the new age could be said to be over 2000 years ago. It wasn't until the 1800's that we started to catch up to them, and medically, it was probably even longer before we caught up, or more to the point, surpassed, the works of Galen.

There are many many predictions. We didn't "catch up" once the date passes and nothing happens, everyone just goes on to wait for the next one.

Look into hero and his work with the temples, then get back to me on that. Granted they didn't have an effective steam engine, but they were using steam as a force to animate automata. I'm quite aware that the first actual 'steam engine' was seen as nothing more then a toy.

The reason it didn't go past this was necessity. Sad to say, it had to do with slaves. In the one part of the roman empire where they did not have abundant slaves is the only part of Rome they found an automated bread factory that was water powered.

Oh dear, yes, I forgot that one. Not really a steam engine that, but a hot-air implementation of something remarkably like Thomas Savery's "Miner's Friend" pistonless steam pump.
The more I read about Hero, the cooler he becomes. Wind wheel. Vending machine. (and one for us drug survivors) Syringe.

Excellent point about slaves. They did remove some incentive to mechanize. Ironically Hero provided the key invention in his syringe - the piston and cylinder. just pure bad luck that the practical application of that with steam had to wait about 1600 years. cn

Dude, thats no lie, hero was the shit. They were a hair away from having cars, had shit not collapsed the way it had. Can you imagine where technology would be now?!! We could quite literally be 1600 years ahead of where we are now. *sighs* Such a bitch.

With that said, I would love to see some of his creations remade. Thats a museum I would travel to, I don't care where it was located.

And some people believe that this was the beginning of the new age, some think it was somewhere around the turn of the 1800-1900. I don't.

Imo there are very few events in history that deserve being called the end of one era and the beginning of another. Even fewer of those are appreciable as they happen. The industrial revolution raised steam (so to speak) gradually, almost steplessly. We have just finished a century of unprecedented technical progress, with the social adjustments that such progress necessarily caused and is still causing. The railroad, the motorcar, the airplane, the jet airplane, antibiotics, the orbital rocket, the nuclear bomb ... which of these is worthy to be the harbinger of the new era? In combination, I do think that these inventions and their implementation have placed us in a new sort of age of man. But deciding on exactly which and when is artificial, arbitrary imo. cn

But look at the bright side. They left the coal and oil for us. I so very much hope that we find a new power source - controlled fusion is the horse on which I'm betting - before fossil fuel gets mined out of being economically practical.

Me too. Road trip!! A local friend (who tests quite thoroughly hemp-negative) shares my fascination with the early atomic age. We're planning a road trip to the Trinity Site next year on the day they open the site to the public. One of my favorite owned DVDs is "Trinity and Beyond" about nuclear bomb testing. So beautiful, so dangerous.

If I were rich ... I'd commission such a museum. (Well half of it ... the other wing would be devoted to liquid-fueled rocketry.) I used to live in the Washington DC area, and one of my meccas was the old Museum of History and Technology. They had magnificently geeky displays of the machinery that built the last 250 years of awesomeness. then they RUINED it, tore out all the cool insider stuff and replaced it with pop culture. I express strong disapproval. :cuss: cn
 
It'll either be controlled fusion or anti-matter reactors. Right now the efficiency at harvesting anti-matter is horrible, but so was nuclear energy when it was in its infancy.

THAT'S WHAT I'M SAYING. These are the "Small Steps". We think of them as "Huge accomplishments" But IT GET'S BETTER.

But thats a natural progression that literally has nothing to do with their 'cycles' as this progression has been going on for quite literally thousands of years.
 
BLEH... TE CYCLES ARE JUST TE NATURAL PROGRESSION. Read up on your Hindu, first human text. First time someone felt such a great force in their words that they needed to write it down. So they invented writing.

A Princeton plasma physicist is at the beach when he discovers an ancient looking oil lantern sticking out of the sand. He rubs the sand off with a towel and a genie pops out. The genie offers to grant him one wish. The physicist retrieves a map of the world from his car an circles the Middle East and tells the genie, 'I wish you to bring peace in this region'.

After 10 long minutes of deliberation, the genie replies, 'Gee, there are lots of problems there with Lebanon, Iraq, Israel, and all those other places. This is awfully embarrassing. I've never had to do this before, but I'm just going to have to ask you for another wish. This one is just too much for me'.

Taken aback, the physicist thinks a bit and asks, 'I wish that the Princeton tokamak would achieve scientific fusion energy break-even.'

After another deliberation the genie asks, 'Could I see that map again?'
 
lol - I knew a guy who was a grad student at the plasma physics lab there. He got rather offended when I referred to the flagship instrument as the Beryllium Bagel. cn
 
...was just reading about how the stone is an altar. It represents a cross. It is a 'prescription' to unite one's sexual and mental 'powers'. Neat stuff :)

...it also mentions 'mystic pride' again. I guess it is asking that we not become fckheads along the way :)

the world is changing as i speak, right now there is a comet outside in solar system, Comet ELEnin is going to be align with the Sun and Earth on 09/27/2011,

it might cause earthquakes and will evolve the consciousnesses of Man

then you have 11/11/11, again the Sun might disturb our electronic communications such as radio waves , electricity, etc. The Sun's solar flares are increasing and are getting stronger, weakening the magnetic field of Earth, causing this too happen.

The Mayan calender end's on 10/28/2011, not 12/21/2012.

the word Maya means illusion of time,

time as you know while be able to control, infact time will be flexible, along with other gifts such as telepathy, and self healing
Click to expand...
telepathy and self healing are impossible. it doesnt work like that. dont try to play god bro you wont like the out come
 
11/11/11 could stand for 11+11+11 witch is 33. The pyramids are at a 33 angle, the highest rank in the masons is 33 degree. also note that pyramids are one of the best structures to channel energy, good or bad. Just some facts that are good to know.

As for healing well, id say removing negative thoughs and doings and replacing them whit positive and helpful doings is a good way to "heal" you're self. : )
