  1. Pi is amazing because it is the worlds most complex naturally occuring number.  Phi is not necassarily a naturally ocurring number.  The sun is a circle, therefore pi exists, as if by no other means at least.  The earth is an oblate spheroid so pi must be altered.

    Think about it is quite amazing. The sun feels the gravity of only itself, so far that we know, and therefore it's gravitational pull is determined just by the displacement of its own mass within its core.  It therefore must be considered a perfect circle? Dependant upon the placement of the heavy masses.  Yet the earth has two gravatational pulls, 1 is the pull of the sun, 2 is the pull of its own body.  It is quite amazing that the sun has a strong enough pull to alter the shape of our planet while it spins in its orbit. I wonder how much of our internal gravity is reliant upon the sun and how much is reliant upon the earth.

    Would the earth spin if we had no sun? I am not sure I think it could and also could not. Think of a baseball curve ball and then think of a hard soccer shot from the world cup (where the ball hardly spins at all). I guess it is all dependant upon the initial energy and direction.

    I could easily insult right now, but I won't......... for now. :)

  2. what movie is reprasented by that guy between Horner and Newman?
