If only, ppl would love themselves

If only, ppl would forgive themselves

The Truth just Is. Excellence discovers & uncovers the Truth. Business interests can hide the Truth through consensus.

- The Phoenicians told the Earth is flat with an horrible edge. Nobody can navigate without assuming an Earth globus & its orbiting around the Sun. Pitagoras (6th century BC) and Aristoteles (4th century BC) knew that the Earth can't be flat. The Egyptian astronomers saw the shadow of the Earth on the Moon. Christopher Columbus assumed a globus, but he assumed its diameter too small as well.
- Nicolaus Copernicus, Johannes Kepler, Galileo Galilei and Giordano Bruno defended that the Sun is the center of the Solar System.

Cassiterite is derived from the term “Cassiterides” which was applied 'islands off the western coast of Europe' in pre-Roman times (britisch and the irish islands, Phoenician language). (mineralienatlas.de)

The frankincense came from Oman to the Mediterranean Sea through Saba (Incense Route). Nobody knew that it is a resin from a Boswellia tree, but they were told that incense is Dragon's tears.
Karl Wilhelm von Nägeli (before 1884, while writting his main work about inheritance) became known as the man who discouraged Augustinian priest Gregor Mendel from further work on genetics. Carl Erich Correns published Mendel's reference (from 1866) January 25, 1900.

Consensus can be wrong. Alfred Lothar Wegener's theorie (1 November 1880 – November 1930) of continental drift (1912) could have failed 1939, if Alfred Rittmann (IAVCEI President 1954-1963) did not defend the theorie with his observation, raising doubts. Orogenic volcanism is dominated by calc-alkaline igneous rocks, lacking sodic alkali-basaltic magmas; whereas the Mid-Atlantic Ridge (extension) has mainly alkali-basaltic magmas. Still, only 1968 did the Earth Siences paradigm changed; gravity anomaly survey, sonar survey and geomagnetic survey were needed to nail it.

- Wegener had a PhD in Astronomy, what did not help. Wegener did not take enough time for his paper, probably. He did it in the second half of 1905, just, he wanted to join an expedition to Greenland. His main interest was meteorology, and he didn't see the controversy storm coming.
- The geologists agree with his data on Geography, Glaciology, Paleontology and old Orogeny. The Geophysicists had problems with no driving force and a deformable/ movable crust in such a large scale. By hindsight, all had wrong concepts, but were right in a way too: the drifters, the anti-drifters, the fixists, the permanentists, the contracting Earth supporters, and the expanding Earth supporters (the continents are passive, the seafloor spreading is active).
The unifying theory of Einstein's general relativity and Planck's quantum mechanics needs more dimensions than energy, volume and time. But the human in vitro fertilisation is not checking the offspring.
Edwin Hubble
- He discovered (1929) that v (velocity) = H (Hubble constant) x d (distance). But Georges Lemaître publicized it 1927, much later Hubble could have told that the priority belonged to Lemaître. Lemaître told that he used Vesto Slipher's velocities, Hubble didn't. Lemaître believed in an expanding universe, Hubble didn't. Hubble classified the galaxies (1926), his correspondence cites the work of John Reynolds (astronomer), but his publications don't cite Reynolds.

Western Cordillera and adjacent areas. Geological Society of America Field Guide. Vol. 4. Bretz's ideas for such large-scale flooding were viewed as a challenge to the uniformitarian principles then ruling the science of geology (p. 2)
- Wiki quote: "It would be oversimplifying it to say that this was because the geology establishment held uniformitarian views. The geology establishment was resistant to such a sweeping theory for the origin of a broad landscape for a variety of reasons, including lack of familiarity with the remote areas of the interior Pacific Northwest where the research was based, and the lack of status and reputation of Bretz in the eyes of the largely Ivy League-based geology establishment".
Gerta Keller states that the K/T extinction event took 2 Ma and that the Chicxulub hit was 300,000 years earlier. But consensus tries to block challenges to Chicxulub hypothesis. Gerta Keller and Vincent Courtillot do not agree with Chicxulub as a single cause, they believe rather in multiple causes, e.g.: global marine regression, Chicxulub hit, Shiva hit, Deccan flood basalts. Many extinction events are related to marine regressions and flood basalts.
- The sequence of events between the end of the Maastrichtian age and 300,000 years before are still matter of debate.

The IPCC sums up the emissions. But the atmosphere oxidises sulfur dioxide, carbon monoxide and methane too, as Peter Langdon Ward states. The dynamic equilibrium of the mass balance is emissions, consumption, and accumulation.
Andy Saunders and Marc Reichow seem to help Peter L. Ward, quote (figure caption): "Extinction rate versus time (multiple-interval marine genera, modified from Sepkoski, 1996) compared with eruption ages of continental flood basalts. Three of the largest mass extinctions, the Permo-Triassic, Triassic-Jurassic (ETE) and the Cretaceous-Tertiary (K/T), correspond with the eruptions of the Siberian Traps, the Central Atlantic Magmatic Province, and the Deccan Traps, respectively. Three oceanic plateaus, the Caribbean (CP), Kerguelen (KP), and Ontong Java (OJP) are included. Modified after White and Saunders (2005)."

Notes

Lv these mineral names ;) An engineer/ scientist always needs a library, a handbook, an encyclopedia and a database. An enginner/ scientist is never better than his database ;)

"I'm not an atheist and I don't think I can call myself a pantheist. We are in the position of a little child entering a huge library filled with books in many different languages. The child knows someone must have written those books. It does not know how. The child dimly suspects a mysterious order in the arrangement of the books but doesn't know what it is. That, it seems to me, is the attitude of even the most intelligent human being toward God. We see a universe marvelously arranged and obeying certain laws, but only dimly understand these laws", attributed to Albert Einstein.

"Our aim as scientists is objective truth; more truth, more interesting truth, more intelligible truth. We cannot reasonably aim at certainty. Once we realize that human knowledge is fallible, we realize also that we can never be completely certain that we have not made a mistake" Karl Popper

If a kid says that one and one doesn't give two, then the kid isn't allowed to begin the primary school. Our mind is a digital computer. So when we lie, then our diplomas are non valid. Chris.urs-o ;)

- Gadgets: Glamorous, HotCat, Cat-a-lot and CatScan (Commons) are wonderful tools; Manske's tools (toolserver.org/~magnus) are limited to 30 times/User (24 hours), so learning by doing wouldn't be your best idea ('global contributions' and reference generator [2]).
