The One Law of Power

Have you read The 48 Laws of Power by Robert Greene?  It's an interesting read in Machiavelli's The Prince sense, however, it can be distilled into one sentence:

"Promise the world while delivering absolute garbage."

Bait and switch.  A sole proprietor cannot get away with that, but hire a manager, or better yet, a team of officers, and you too can deliberately deliver absolute garbage and force your customers to do all the work.

While this used to work in the days of anonymity and distance due to shipping and information delivery times, I do not suggest employing that One Law of Power.

Accountability will be back in vogue soon.

The Bible - the movie

Was "He" really Satan?

While reading a couple of quotes from the Book of Jeremiah, I noticed that it had contradictory language.  "He" referenced God of course, but then later, it seemed that "He" was referencing Satan.  I wonder if Satanic translators forgot a sentence or two and did not tell the reader that the new subject had switched from God to Satan.  That is a pretty easy omission to make and it looks to be deliberate.

Anyhow, I think it would make an interesting movie to simply change all the "He"s to Satan if it involves death or punishment.  Leave them as God if otherwise benevolent.  Destructive vs. Creative would be the dividing line.

Because God doesn't destroy.  God creates.

Human trafficking is wrong

Human trafficking has roots in wealthy people's trust funds and desires for planned lives and control.  Wealthy people sometimes believe they are immortal and can live within another person's body or mind.  Like a voodoo transfer or something.  Of course this is not true, but some believe it and create wills and trusts that map out every aspect of their lives.  Then lawyers make sure the instructions are followed.  Arranged friends, brides, wives, dates, etc.  All with genetic and family lines all the way back to ancient India.

Arranged dating is good for the matchmaker, not for the daters.

Please see http://abblaw.tumblr.com for a description of the above and the horror of its consequences.

"Trapping Discrete Particles in Fluids" - a patent application from 2009

As this was from 4 years ago, I thought it time to bring this back up.

Nano-mining
Clean oceans
Harvest natural resources


How someone has not contacted me about investing in this is unfathomable to me.

CAPTURE ANY PARTICLE ON EARTH IN ANY MOVING FLUID FLOW?  Air.  Water.  Fire.  Earth, even.


One particle per patent.  That is orders for the physicists and chemists and engineers.

I have a business plan, including distribution and energy for delivery of the extracted resources.

Adam and Evil

While riding the subway into Manhattan this morning, I saw an advertisement from Apple about music.  The advertisement angered me.

1s and 0s is NOT music, Apple.  Music can be represented in a computer, but is not the actual music.  Digital    is false music.  The human brain is forced to fill in the music as it cannot be accurately represented in a computer.  I do not care how many 9s are placed in the between.  Just as a computer simulation is not reality, so as a digital recording is not reality.

Adam and Eve

Bit off too much of the apple

Adam and Evil

Am I a pod?


Was that a bad apple?  j/k

The Brotherhood of Badasses

Now, I did not invent this name, I was declared its King and leader by the one who did.  The Brotherhood of Badasses is a complex thing that has roots in Buddhism and monasteries.

For one, it is a loose translation into English.  The original Thai is difficult to translate into English.

Right now there are only a few levels of the Brotherhood:

acolyte
apprentice
master

The Brotherhood is one of self designation and recognition.  One MAY designate themselves as affiliated with the Brotherhood of Badasses if one wishes, however, MUST say they are only affiliated and as an acolyte only and be VERY clear about the communication.  Otherwise, there will be consequences.

An apprentice is one who has a master or teacher.  One cannot choose a teacher.  The teacher must accept one as their apprentice.

Many and most people affiliated with the Brotherhood of Badasses will never reach the state of master.  Perhaps other designations will be made at a later time, but for now there are the 3.  Plus a Grand master and the King/Leader (me).

While it is called the Brotherhood of Badasses, it is open to females as well.

I am not accepting any apprentices as my 4 year old son Kohdee is my only apprentice.  Well, his mother is also, but only through loose affiliation and not as direct.  I am open to other female apprentices, but have my hands full with Kohdee on the male side.

The Crematorium

The Prince Andrew of The United States has been forced to live amongst the homeless.  I call it "The Crematorium" because across the street and around back on the corner is the Brooklyn Funeral Home with Cremation Services building.  It is across the street from a large abandoned church.

Also interesting, my adoptive father Joseph Brown III used to have light switches and radios on timers for when we were out of town.  It gave the appearance that we were still at home.  This works if you have a garage, I suppose, but if you do not have a garage, then it is blaringly obvious that we were out of town.  It really depended on who was watching.  But anyhow, there was another church about a mile away from The Crematorium that had chains on the door.  I noticed the church looked filled on Sunday, but something appeared off.  I think the same thing happened at that church, but the light bill is still being paid.  I noticed that church because 4 fire trucks showed up yesterday to a house nearby.  It seemed quite serious, but the trucks vacated quickly.

The Prince Andrew of The United States

As it has been recognized that I am indeed The Prince Andrew of The United States, I think it appropriate that a press statement be issued.  So which of my subjects will do so for me?  As The Prince Andrew of The United States I shall make sure you are duly rewarded.

Also, on a more serious note, now that we in the United States of America are considered a monarchy, I have heard through the grapevine that some have or are considering declaring war on The United States of America.  That is understandable as the US' military is quite powerful and a single monarch might be deemed a dictator without sufficient knowledge of the Constitution or US' laws.  As I am not yet King, the US is still a democracy with a Constitution and Federal government (however lacking it is).  However, others might not be aware of this or might forsee the possibility of me being declared The King Andrew of The United States of America.  So, to circumvent this possibility, after the press release is issued to inform the population that The Prince Andrew of The United States is me, Andrew Bransford Brown, I highly suggest an immediate appointment to Secretary of State of The United States of America.

Also, in my wisdom I have determined there is a modification to the Federal laws and/or Constitution to make a Co-Secretary of State position with a woman as my co-officer.

I also, in my wisdom have decided on that woman.  Her name is Crissy Moran.  She used to be a porn star, but gave away all her money and quit several years ago.  A very brave woman.  I have also noticed that she is to be known as The Real Princess Crissy.

That is her formal name:  The Real Princess Crissy.

The Real Princess Crissy is a powerfully intelligent woman with extraordinary communication skills.  Her diplomacy in all interactions is supreme and superior to all humans.

If you would like to learn more about The Real Princess Crissy, please visit her on http://facebook.com and search for RealCrissy Moran.  Or her website:  http://newcrissymoran.com

As Co-Secretaries of State, The Real Princess Crissy and I will herald an age of wisdom, knowledge, peace, and an end to hunger and poverty.

NOTICE OF INVENTION - Physical Torture Cubes (PTCs)

TRIVIA QUESTION!!!!

How many bullet-proof glass manufacturers are there in the New York City area?

Also... how many PTCs do you think the City of New York might require?  Initial guess is about 10,000.  "A few days in a PTC and they'll never do that again."

"Ah... throw 'em in a PTC for a few hours.  That'll teach 'em"

Now.  There are at least 2 settings on every PTC:

1. physical torture ON/OFF switch

2. psychological torture ON/OFF switch.

With both switches in the OFF position, the convictee is simply in an isolation chamber and cannot move.  Kubrick's 2001 movie of Dave in "heaven" comes to mind except for the mobility part.

Also, I invented and termed a new thing I call a "capillary wall" today.  I suppose it could be similar to existing technology known as an LCD display, but I designed it to be transparent or opaque or anything in between depending on the molecules within the capillary wall.  This allows filtering of light at various frequencies and I suppose could be used to display information/video/text on either side of the wall.  What will the convict placed in the PTC view while the public is watching 'True Horror Story'?  I do not know.  Perhaps the public will have a channel changer.

Oh yeah... I forgot.. in addition to the new game "Trivial Pursuit - Infant Boomer Edition" that I invented a few years ago, I came up with a new version called "Trivial Pursuit - Military Holocaust Edition".  That does need to include a parental warning as the terminology used can be quite graphic.  An example question might be:  "What was the Kill to Pussy ratio for the 72nd Armored Division in 2008?"  (Kill to Pussy ratio) is defined as the average number of kills for the group designated with the number of unique penile insertions.)  Another definition might be the Impregnation ratio.  Lots of analysis.

Letter to President Obama - Physical Torture Cubes

This was originally posted on http://abbvsnycbar.blogspot.com (NEW SITE is http://abblaw.tumblr.com) and moved here today (10/20/2013).  Since yesterday, I added a new part to the Times Square version of the public/physical torture cube:
- the original letter applies to the male
- a female "partner in crime" cube opposite
- both naked
- only see each other once/year
- punishment occurs upon decision of vote (eg. even if 100% voted opposite, the verdict is inevitable)
- female "partner in crime" sees punishment occur.  her identical punishment is inflicted on New Year's Eve at the stroke of midnight.  IE.  one week, plus some time until the New Year to see and watch.
- both cubes descend back into the ground at that time.  Both are freely open to the public 24/7.  No downtime.


"Letter to President Obama - Physical Torture Cubes"

Is there a government contractor that can help me build this?  As a forward thinking person, I have an idea that will likely have LOTS of need to manufacture.  I do not know when I came up with this invention, but I think it was about a year ago.  Similar to stockades of the past... I present the:

The Physical Torture Cube

See through.

Chair in the center (semi-reclining).

No doors.  Totally sealed.

Person (convictee) inside.

Tube down their throat.
Tubes for feces and urine evacuation.

They will not be allowed out until their sentence is over.

Outside:

Conviction records (with video re-enactments and directions for evidence verifications).  Some verifications might include free airfare.

No guard or warden.

Alcohol served freely.

Buttons to push to both psychologically and physically torture the convict.

A few of us were talking about the Times Square version this morning:

Imagine it is Christmas X-mas Eve in NYC...  The cube rises once a year at the break of dawn.  A crowd gathers.  The 4 walls each play a different part of the story.  A cartoon on one side for the kids.  A video re-enactment on another.  A text version for detail on the opposite side.  And finally, on the opposite of the cartoon version will be the movie "True Horror Story".  The movie is half written.  It is a story from 2011-2012 about Andrew Bransford Brown and a girl living in Lakeland, Florida named Jessica (a Hooter's girl).  It is a timeless classic.  No matter how bad your year, it will be watched again and again.  Now.  The first half is absolutely true.  We will have to get a few witnesses from Lakeland to verify the dialogue, but my memory is pretty good.  The second half is not yet written, but is basically Jessie running around Lakeland and Tampa cutting up grandmas and infants and males in various locales.  Very busy as the bodies decompose and she needs to dispose of them without getting caught.  That is basically it, but I need to talk with Jessie for details.  Back to Times Square NYC X-mas Eve.  After the movie the whole world gets to vote.  Release the prisoner?  Buttons are pressed in silence.  The votes are tallied (with complete audation (auditing word), will the cube be dissolved?  OR... as it happens most years...  the inmate is de-skinned before our very eyes.  Like Stephen King's novel and movie Carrie except with his/her living blood.  Cover your eyes on this one.  The cube descends until next year.  Of course you can visit.  Any time.  Spiral staircase and walk right in.  You can even spray the de-skinned convict with stinging spray.  All day and night if you like.

Anyhow, what contractor has the bullet-proof glass stuff?  Also, will need some ergonomic chairs and some colic experts for the electrocutions (keeps their muscle tone).

Hmm... well that's the future.  Not too far away now....   Need to start thinking about manufacturing those. 

There are 100,000 Treasury employees.  How many Federal employees (Title 26 Definition) are there and can civil guilt be used as criminal evidence?  I believe so.

Please see http://abbvsnycbar.blogspot.com (NEW SITE is http://abblaw.tumblr.com) and moved here today (10/20/2013) for the precedent.  It might assist you in your defense.

Sincerely,

Some legal advice:

- last time Congress declared war:  WWII

- War Powers Act (60 days).  9/11/2001 + 60 - declaration of war by Congress = all murders.

As Commander in Chief, you are guilty of all military kills since.  I suggest locating legal counsel.

Kern Place in El Paso Texas (I grew up in that neighborhood)

They supposedly called this the "Gate of Death".  It was built in 1916 by Peter Kern.  He founded the neighborhood and I lived in his house at the top of Cincinnati Street.  Apparently he was connected with some very odd Illuminati and Masonic types and lots of mystery surrounds it.  I can attest that it was a very strange place to grow up.  Very quiet.  Too quiet.  In retrospect, I think I grew up surrounded by Satan worshippers.  I did not know that at that time.  They say Peter Kern was decapitated in a ritual sacrifice underneath that sign.  It was torn down in the 1950s and I moved there in 1973 or so.

Trans-structural time travel

In an infinite universe all possibilities exist.  Each possibility is a holographic structure representing every possible moment in time.  Most structures are devoid of life, except (at least) this one.  Consciousness/life is an interconnected plasma.  All life forms from algae and coral to plants and humans are interconnected.

By focusing the emotional energy of all life forms, it may be possible to transfer the life plasma of planet Earth to a different structure.  This might be a permanent change or could temporarily breath life into another structure, and bring back people or animals.  You might call this, "bringing back grandma physics".  To visit another structure, an emotional connection is required and each structure can only be visited once.

Under great heat and pressure, carbon turns to diamond.  This is the form of hell on earth. Heat and pressure is the fire and brimstone as the emotional soul (living in the pineal gland) is pushed out of existence in a superman-style prison.  Other crystals (with color) are souls paying penance as they hold onto souls in other structures (ghosts).

EDIT 11/2/2013:  The above is a description that I believe explains the nature of reality better than any theory.  It is an extension of what I termed "Plasma Theory" when I was about 10 or 12.  My description at that age was "It is not two plus two equals four, it is 2 + 2 AND 4.  All at the same time."

Gravity overcoming magnetism

Takka Tan Tan

Takka Tan Tan means "Dancing Mantis" in Thai.  That is my son Kohdee's nickname.  He is 4 years old and lives with his mother in Bangkok, Thailand.  He does a little modeling for some famous names like Elle, Petit Pomm, and some toys.  He was pretty good as the lead angel at Bangkok Airway's 40th anniversary show.  Apparently he had a big thing recently with the superstars.  Takka Tan Tan.  He is currently going to acting school.  FYI, his name is Kohdee.  Not Cody.

Nearly free energy machine

EDIT on 11/2/2013:  POKE A HOLE AT THE TOP OF THE APEX!!!  It took me a year to figure that out.

Is the cohesive force of water stronger than gravity? Answer: yes (look at water cling to the side of a glass). Therefore, capillary action will pull water uphill.

For an example, look at a tree. A tree is a slow motion fountain.

Or touch the end of a napkin into water and the water crawls up. That's capillary action. Also note how it filters certain heavier substances. So the design of the napkin (sponge) can extract discrete particles from the fluid.

Edited on 3/30/2010:
Capillary action in a small diameter tube can raise water several centimeters. If you were to bend the end of the tube over, the water would attempt to flow out, but the cohesion will be stronger than gravity. However, if you were to arrange many similar tubes together, the meniscus of each would touch and the hydrogen bonding of water would overcome the electrostatic charge to the tube and water can form a droplet large enough for gravity to overcome. That's nearly perpetual energy that concentrates the electrostatic energy in water. That's how water gets into a coconut. Similar to nature, capillary faucets engineer water to travel uphill.

Another design using the same principles (1/27/2010):

Reorganizing science

Theoretical Physics

Thermodynamics
---Crystals
---Molecular dynamics (magnets and molecules)
---Chemistry

Life science
---Genetics
---Biology (cell growth and divisions)
---Behavioral science
------Anthropology
------Economics (monetary science)
------Traumology (study and resolution of trauma)


A few basic principles:
1. light is a fluid
2. gravity is a vacuum (Eg. ferrous iron)
3. you can split apart molecules and remove electrons using electromagnetic waves
4. consciousness is a plasma
5. zero is not a number (mathematics is a symbolic representation of reality and not reality itself)
6. E=mc2 shows a valid relationship, but the equation is not correct. The speed of light is not constant and he forgot about time.

Molecular Dynamics is a science studying the interaction of fluids (moving particles) which replaces "nano-technology". Chaos theory is a silly way to model stuff in a computer. Represent light as a fluid and you'll get some more accurate weather prediction.

Life

When the sperm enters the ovum it finds food. Interwining the two parent's DNA strands, building someone entirely new. We're all parameciums at that point. Sex doesn't occur until the first cell division. I think that 5 stem cells are the first cell divisions. Some of those divisions may be: brain, pineal (or perhaps other similar glands), bone, organs, and nervous system (or perhaps muscle).

So to make permanent changes to DNA (such as life extension), modifying the DNA in the stem cells might work, but would likely create conflict with that original paramecium. I wonder if the original paramecium is contained in the pineal itself. Locked away until emotional trauma is entirely healed.

My theory is the original paramecium provides a gateway before significant changes to genes will by accepted by the organism. Any attempt to modify the stem cells will be "policed" by that. Emotional congruity will likely be important to acceptance of those changes by the organism of large changes (such as life-extension).

When do we ever get back to that original paramecium (self)?

Female language patterns

Female language is based on the double entendre and is an atrocious use of language that impedes communication. The language stems from early sexual abuse and trauma. The entendre is created through combining the normal definition of the words with a subjective phonetic interpretation that is almost always sexual and usually very ugly. For example, the phrase: "You've gotta be kidding". When women say that phrase, they also mean: "You've got two? Dinging the kid" OR "You've got TA? Ding the kid". The latter phrase is a subconscious cry for help and simultaneously reinforces the child molestation they received as a child.

Solving emotional trauma

Emotional trauma creates feelings of "worthless" and "special" which are frequently perpetuated throughout a person's life. In the case of adoption trauma: "Worthless" stems from the mother's rejection and "specialness" stems from the adoptive family choosing to adopt the child. Regardless of source, the emotional trauma creates a lifetime pattern that oscillates between "worthless" and "special" and usually goes unrecognized.

Umbilical cord cut, punched in the gut.  You never figured out what you did wrong, and never wanted to be wrong again.


In some cases, the umbilical cord cut is further exacerbated by a rape that occurs on their newborn day.  This is either a penis inserted into the infant's mouth or a mother who places the infant on her clitoris before breastfeeding (associating sex with food). While this occurs frequently with non-adoptees, it aggravates the adoptive trauma and reinforces the oscillating behavior towards feeling worthless/special. Unless recognized consciously, this will create a repetitive subconscious behavioral pattern that continues through all of life.

As an adoptee, I discovered my trauma and found a solution that applies to all forms of emotional trauma, described here:
http://traumology.blogspot.com

Gravity

A little over one year ago I figured out how gravity works: Imagine a particle. Now open up the particle and get all the stuff out of it and close it back up. What's inside? It's not matter, so it has nothing inside with a huge vacuum. (Anti-matter is another way of saying "nothing".) That's gravity on the small scale like a hydrogen atom.

Now, imagine the sun with some iron in it. Iron boils and creates a big bubble of iron. That's the core of the earth; filled with nothing. Iron is a ferrous material like a sponge.

Phonetics and language/symbol manipulation

I was driving around checking things out around Lake Tahoe today thinking about language and phonetics and symbols.

north
south

west
east

notice the phonetic similarity. I have a feeling you could structure the "th" and "st" in ways that would describe a physical symbol in other languages. Sun cross comes to mind.

Also, if you notice Thai and Vietnamese... Frequently attractive words in one language are phonetically ugly in the other. For example, the word "pretty" in Vietnamese is "dung" in English. I don't think that's random. Who was in charge of assigning Arabic lettering to Vietnamese? Whoever it was deliberately sabotaged it to ensure maximum cultural conflict. Same goes for Thai. I wonder if the languages are more related than everyone realizes. Phonetics.

Corporations

Many of the problems we face today can be traced to the anonymity and irresponsibility allowed through corporate entities. By design, corporations have no accountability to those behind the scenes. I'd like to create a new legal entity with full accountability and visibility to the living beings behind them. Forcing them to be accountable. Accountorations? I'll think about a good name. Once that simple entity is defined, all existing corporations would be dissolved and all corporate law would become obsolete. Those hiding behind the anonymity and non-liability of corporations would have to find another way to make a living (government, wall street, central banking, etc).

If people have no liability for their actions people will tend towards taking excessive risk.

Picture of a ghost at my condo in Bangkok

Her name is Nong Nok.

Patenting one's life

I asked my patent lawyer about patenting my life. I wonder if that's possible. Isn't a patent granted to the first person who has an idea and registers it publicly? Isn't this blog a public place? So until we have a registration service for patentable ideas, can't this suffice?

We are a bit undecided about how to go about doing that (where, who, how, etc), so for now, I will unequivocally state that I own the patent on patenting one's life. Furthermore I patented my entire life and all ideas belong to me. So anyone wishing to build a perpetual energy machine based on my principles must ask me for permission. This applies to ALL my ideas like forming human relationships based on human dynamics (molecular biological principles), or the global monetary system, etc.

Keep in mind I'm one man with rather simple needs, so permission will likely be granted as long as you are using the idea in a beneficial way. That is not tacit approval, however. Formal permission is required.

Perpetual Energy Machine (effectively)

Before you jump all over me for asserting the idea of perpetual energy, this is a 4.5 billion year energy machine that I think might also be perpetual. As long as the earth and sun remain intact, this idea will work for sure. So... if we have all arguments out of the way, here is the idea a 10 year old can understand (note it could be a smaller scale, but let's go big):

I want to pull ocean water up the hill over the continental divide between LA/San Diego and Phoenix. Once it crests the hill, gravity provides more than sufficient energy to power cities, desalinate water, and turn desert into farm land. So... how to get that ocean water over the hill?

First, the wind farm at the top of the hill on I-10 is sufficient. 4.5 billion year energy machine is proven.

BUT. I have a more interesting idea:

I will bet you that the laws of thermodynamics can push water up a hill. If we were to paint the pipe different colors (start with black/white), the pipe and water contained within would expand and contract from the heat of the sun. This creates energy that would push on the body of fluid and with some good engineering, different shaped pipes, intelligently painted sections, and some reservoirs to provide a holding tank, we could push water up the hill just using the heat from the sun expanding water. Wouldn't be simple, but wouldn't be all that difficult either.

Solar power using paint and pipe only. I am 100% certain it would work. Once the water is at the top of the hill and over the continental divide? Effectively perpetual energy. Free water. Free energy. For 4.5 billion years.


FOR THE NAYSAYERS:

1000' diameter solar array VS. 1000' diameter magnifying glass?  Which one will boil rock?

Trapping particles in moving fluids

My patent was filed today (July 22, 2009). The invention is designed to trap individual particles such as atoms, molecules, bacterium, viruses, etc. It targets specific particles and allows the rest to flow by undisturbed. Works for desalination and water mining. It will definitely be useful when nanotechnology gets going and would work on my San Diego->Phoenix->Gulf of Mexico water park idea.

The basic idea is similar to children's wooden blocks: the child places the shapes in the appropriate hole: circle, square, triangle, star, etc. Since each molecule/particle has a specific shape and responds to electromagnetic frequencies in specific ways, a box can be built to capture specific particles. Simple, but would work without disturbing the other particles in the water/blood/fluid flow.

Seceding Arizona from the United States of America

I had this idea yesterday that Arizona should secede from the US effective immediately. (This also works for all states, but AZ is well positioned.)

I realize this is a staggering idea to some, but please think for a moment.

Pros: every person would receive an instant 35-45% pay raise. (income taxes, social security/medicare including the employer paid portion).
Cons: we wouldn't receive highway funding

All that would be required is convincing 90 legislators to do a temporary seccession for 1 year. Within days, people would see the dramatic increase in their paychecks and the legislators would be lauded as heroes; guaranteeing their re-election.

Now, this does leave out the service industry and those who work for tips. Since business owners would be receiving at least that amount as a pay raise too (not paying income taxes, etc.), this would instantly free up capital to allow for generous pay raises for employees who rely on tips. I also recommend posting signs prominently saying something like, "We care about our employees and pay them well. Please do not tip." Signed, the managers name. Brings a whole new meaning to complimenting the employees and taking suggestions.

Business & military security

Hidden Desktop would work as military encryption as well as secure communications between corporations. HD allows the creation of tiered security with full visibility into the back doors. For example, a boss might hold the keys to the employee's computer and data, but the boss could not access it without going through a formal and fully visible process. That process could be as elaborate as submarine nuclear launch instructions. This implicity communicates trust to the employee and transforms the boss/employee relationship. Imagine the change in management at corporations with the boss not being a policeman on their employees and rather looking at their work product. It also protects intellectual property of the employees and helps prevent others from taking credit for ideas that originated elsewhere. This could get into huge consulting gigs for MBAs. The technical difficulties with the above are trivial. A couple of good programmers and network people (I have some people in mind) and we would have a corporate transformative management system. Plus the military application of the above. I'd like to sell it to all governments and corporations (as well as individuals).

Global solution for money

EDIT  11/4/2013:  The original formula was:

(Trust + Performance) * Communication = Accountability

That applied to monetary science.  At some point, Trust became an assumption that led to the following formula as a formula for human potential and behavior and "self-help".  Unfortunately, some like to test things to failure and tested the above formula.  IE.  broke trust, faked performance, and broke communication.  That led to horrifying results.  Satanic.  Some have said the above was used to prove that we live in an organism called God.


Communication * Performance
_______________________ = Trust
Time

The above equation includes the idea of the individual and conscious choice as well as time's linearity. It describes the interaction of two or more individuals. In reference to money, the equation can be stated as: "Communication of performance over time is trust". Although trust is not the only solution to the equation. The success or recognition of the individual is defined by the communication of their performance over time.

See my other blog for more information on this:

Edited 4/24/2010:
The original idea was hashed out on an external website, but the entire website was deleted. Here is a copy of the thread when I worked on the problem:
Ripple; decentralized credit Page 1
Ripple; decentralized credit Page 2

There were 5 pages, but the last 3 were deleted on the original site before I had a chance to back up the threads.
