Some balls are held for charity, and some for fancy dress

But the balls that are smooth enough to be mounted in space born gyroscopes for the verification of Einsteinian space-time curvature are the balls that I like best.

“I'm stirring up the swamp with my Bâton de Joie.”

I've always hated the Copenhagen and Many-Worlds interpretations of QM. I find them philosophically offensive. And now, perhaps, they may have been experimentally falsified. Yay!

Tourette's Girls: Chicks with Tics

Body modification is stupid. I'm into mind mods.

Mods I already have:

I had my concept of God pierced by Cantor's proof of the existence of transfinite cardinalites.

My conception of number has been fully axiomatized.

Languages: English, French, Fortran, NQC, and the Sentential and Predicate Calculi

Mods I want to get:

I want to directly introspect my own brain states as brain states.

I want simultaneously believe in the objective truth of an ethical theory (preferably some combination of utilitarianism and social contract theory) while having the courage to admit that I'm willfully immoral.

Languages: Japanese, Swedish, and Modal Logic (S4 and S5)
