Faster Than the Speed of Light - I JUST NOW read an interesting piece that spoke to the subject of things like the speed of light, gravity, and some other similar stuff. It was all very mysterious and not that easy of understanding. That last part, the difficulty experienced in understanding this mysterious information, caused me to think about thinking - sort of about thinking, that is... Let us say that you had some kind of thought (about anything). You describe your thought to me. Because I am reasonably "sharp" about most things, I "get it" about your thought. Not after thinking about what you tell me. Right away. You had a thought. You told me your thought. I understood your thought as though it was my very own thought. Not after considering your thought for a moment, but right away, instantly. INSTANTLY is much faster than the speed of light, right? Move over, Brother Einstein.

Nah, because understanding involves neurons in the brain, and neural impulses do not travel at the speed of light. Both electrical and chemical activity is involved.

@TheHorse - Howdy again, Horse - Was I discouraged? You bet I was. In basic training I had learned that "Sergeants do not emit brain waves. (No brains - No brain waves, right?) -Gus-
