All I say are my opinions, theories, and observations that can always change. Well, I have a thought that I am still trying to disprove. Much has been said about us being in 3D. Said is that many things are 'out there' we just cannot understand.Fini. Shoot...,,, even our current verbal language is inadequate to convey our thoughts. How many times have you seen the opinion that mathamatics is the 'universal' language? Now, let's get to the triangle. I think our math is in question. The new hole? I think, that hole is anomoly that illustrates our mathamatical abilities are deficient. I now gotta throw out the thought in the area of accounting, that accounting is a mathematical pseudo-science.I saw a previous example in this thread here that illustrates what I call the "missing dollar theory", although in other money denominations. In one of my classes, the teacher was in job life an Actuary, so I figured he knew his math. Out of the blue, disrupting class, and posed the following scenario...
There was this weekend convention, in some city.
Zoom in and see that three(3) guys are checking into the hotel.
Thirty(30) bucks a night the clerk says...
The three guys look at each other...
If we pitch in, it's only 10 bucks apiece.
Okay, they pitch in 10 bucks apiece and leave for their room.
The night manager walks in and says convention rate is 25 bucks per night and to take 5 bucks back...
The bellboy thinks 5 bucks don't divide equally to the three(3) gentelmen,,.
I'll keep two (he thinks) and gives back a buck apiece.
The three(3) guys get back a buck.
10 bucks less one(1) are nine.
9 times three is twenty seven(27), yes?
The bellboy kept two(2) bucks.
That's only twentey nine(29) bucks, where is that missing two(2) bucks buckeroo?
With eye contact, he said "aw shit".
That woke a few, for a brief instance.
edit: I forgot to say, i posed the same question to an accountant...
They said it's only a matter of presentaion.
