Dear All, I haven't joined the Free Will debate so far because I decided many years ago (while at University) that there could be no such thing as Free Will. ...
Hi David , Consciousness is great but like Free Will I'm not sure it is possible to reach a Scientific conclusion on what it is ,or even whether it does...

Dr Brian Cox explained that the Higgs particle maybe responsible for Mass. The theory was that different fundamental particles, as they moved through the...
Third time lucky !! Your reasoning seems sound to me Ed, BUT The only factor I think you need to consider is that gravity is many many billions of times weaker...
Ah - but if we exclude the electromagnetic force (which I think we can) then the force that could constrain the Higgs particle would be either the weak or...
Now I'm no expert but, having read around a bit, here's my tuppence worth. You have to distinguish between the Higgs field and Higgs particles. It is the field...
I'm not sure we can ignore the electromagnetic field ,(although the Higgs process works on charged and neutral particles) as its only averagely neutral...
I have done a bit more reading and would like to add to my previous post on the Higgs Field (and also to see if I get success in the posting this time). My...
Just a thought from the blue -- when Einstein said that Energy distorts Space time did he really mean distorts the Higgs field. Does matter exist merely as...
Just a thought from the blue -- when Einstein said that Energy distorts Space time did he really mean distorts the Higgs field. Well , yes, possibly, that has...

Bearing in mind that "Genome" is the Knutsford SciBAr's Book Reading club's choice of book, I thought this article would be interesting . What would the...
I thought there would be some interest in this since we were discussing,in the reading group recently, the genetically determined behaviour which could be fine...
I must admit to being a little bit disappointed that we didn't get on to the higher dimensions in Prof Nige Ray's talk, especially since the very next talk...
Hi Guys , As discussed with those at the recent meeting:- The next meeting will conclude "The Genome". We need therefore to select, at the next meeting, which...

Hi all, People have commented , on hearing them, that my views on global warming are not widely shared. I have been known to speak on this subject in a manner...
Having done a little research on this by reading I am convinced that it is our contribution to CO2 et all is causing global warming. We have to set an example...
Hi Peter , I too have researched the subject and I note the wild discrepancy between our estimates of human CO2 contribution 4% vs 50%. I suspect a lot of the...
Here are a few views by people who ought to know more than me about Global Warming -- Dave Thompson Global Warming? What a load of poppycock! by Professor...
-- More views on "Anti Global Warning" including no.s on human vs other CO2 Sources. These no.s suggest that my previous no. of humans producing only 4% of the...
This from a report supporting Global Warming caused by humans -- I would have thought that we perhaps needed more than " very likely anthropogenic" before...

There are models which predict within probability limits the changes in the last 100 years and these are showing that half the increase is due to natural...
Hi Peter , If the model's predictions are not valid ,it doesn't matter that we have nothing better, they are still not valid .The models mentioned in these...
