What are You Reading?

@ Igloo

Yup. I see you've been reading-up on physics. (Quantum wave probabilities and all that...)

It seems that you've "wrapped your head around" the Copenhagen interpretation a little easier than me.

The only Copenhagen I wrap my head around(or lip) is the one I can spit out lol. I pretty much hated physics in collage.

Hey Cortez,
Didn't Plato say something like that.

I enjoyed Philosphy, but nearly was thrown out of the class when I answered the following question.
What did Plato think the brain was for? I answered that the Greeks thought the brain was used to cool the blood.

The Prof went ballistic.

I also had a tendency to argue semantics with him. It irritated the hell out of him.

That was one fun class. Especially when he knew I was right.


I might have to read that.

Do you think it's in the Library?

Math and Physics hurt my brain. Right now I am reading The Bobby Jones Autobiography. Have also been reading the Bible quite a bit. Very interesting book. I must say.

Lawrence,

I got my copy of Biocentrism from Amazon; but you can check out an abridged version online at MSNBC

I have noticed that you can hardly find a successful writer who did not use tobacco. In that last 400 years, anyway.

Applying the ASME Codes: Plant Piping & Pressure Vessels . By James A. Wingate . Just awsome stuff , yawn .

 

[menckenite]

I just finished reading Hulsmann's Mises: The Last Knight of Lieberlism. I'm about to begin Twain's The Innocents Abroad.

I do mean to pick up a copy of Biocentrism as my next read...thanks for the suggestion guys. Last night I reread for the billionth time, Emerson's "Self Reliance" and plan to reread "The Oversoul" for the billionth time tonight. I never seem to get enough of the classic transcendentalists.

You Can Have It All, by Arnold Patent

I'm feeling a bit esoteric tonight.

So, I read The Essential Claude Monet by Morris.

A short read.

 

[ohin3]

I always seem to end up reading more than one book at a time. Tonight I finished rereading "Self Reliance" by Ralph Waldo Emerson, and started and read half of "Songs Of The Doomed" by Hunter S. Thompson.

 

[igloo]

James A. Michener , Mexico .

 

[pstlpkr]

Igloo, if that's like "Lincoln" or "Alaska" you're in for the long haul.

Good stuff though.
