How can you be a skeptic if you watch all that bogus conspiracy garbage? Must be mind grinding research then.

The mind grindig part is the mainstream media, trying to connect their narrative to reality. I'd attribute it to what I've taken on background, P.D. Ouspensky (Tertium Organum: The Third Canon of Thought, a Key to the Enigmas of the World). John Lilly (Programming and Metaprogramming in the Human Biocomputer), Robert Anton Wilson (The Illuminatus! Trilogy)

Oh i understand now, make Believe reality is easier to comprehend particularly if it conforms to some false belief system.

Your welcome to believe what you like.

A closer reading would show that I labelled the Youtube video as "Shuttle-era Secret Space Program woo" and then pointed to a correspndence from my lived experience.

Are you arguing for some form of retro-causality?

No I just need punctuation indicating sarcasm.

I'd file this somewhere between 'unkown unkowns' and 'everything you know is wrong'.

Full of factoids like there is fusion taking place in the Sun's Photoshphere. The Huygens Principle says the angle of reflection of a mirror depends on it's velocity (who knew?). The presumption that the ether must be either tetrahedral or cubic.

Based on this video, I'm going to have to reconcile the electrical Right Hand Rule, with the four dimensions (at 60°) of Synergetic Geometry. But maybe first, I'll have some lunch.

Existential threats notwithstanding, and while we await the pole shift -- let's party like it's 2016.

We have the truth

Three hours ago I posted #979. Anton Petrov subsequently posts this on Youtube.

In Scott Adams' terms this is "The cat is on the roof".
