https://waveform-particle-state.blogspot.com/ Near the end of the 1900s, scientists found the tau neutrino. It is the last of the fundamental buildingblocks of matter. It took six million tries to find the four events that proved the tau neutrino exists. The magic number of building blocks of matter appears to be six. That is, there are sixquarks, and six leptons. The tau neutrino, which is a lepton, was the last of the dozen.The tau lepton, which is what the tau neutrino becomes, after hitting an atomic nucleus, such as iron, quicklydisappears.The only evidence the tau lepton leaves is a one millimeter track.

Do you know that neutrinos change flavor as they pass through the Earth?

From electron to muon to tau and back?

We're building an experiment to measure it, and Lallina Manenti https://twitter.com/LallinaManenti has the feature to tell you how we're making it happen!

https://waveform-particle-state.blogspot.com/ My sources of Free Thought are Alan Watts and Michel Martin. I first learned about Free Thought in 1962, while serving in the US Army. Edited transcript of my sources of freedom of thought shown below.I call this podcast: Free Thought, sources of my ideas about freedom of thought.I wanted to mention some sources of many of my ideas about freedom of thought. Alan Watts died about 40 years ago. However, his work in audio, video and text is available on the internet at Alan Watts. https://alanwatts.com/ A free podcast is also available there.My ability to think freely was influenced by Alan Watts for at least 30 years. His lectures were broadcast on WDUQ, a national public radio station in Pittsburgh at Duquesne University. I never met Alan Watts, yet I believe that he has contributed more ideas to my personal beliefs and behavior than any other person. His ability to explain how humans think and act seems to me to be the most enlightened freedom of thought that I have ever seen.In particular, recently I listened to his podcast about fundamentalist Christian bigotry, that distorts the ideas of Christianity to justify xenophobia. Generally disrespecting any other beliefs in any religion or culture other than the distorted bigotry of fundamentalist obsessions? In my opinion, these obsessions that humans have with racial or cultural bigotry are caused by various disorders, including biological diseases and chemical abuses which affect the brainAnother person who has influenced my ideas is Michel Martin. She is a wonderfully talented interviewer and journalist at Amanpour-and-Company http://www.pbs.org/wnet/amanpour-and-company/hosts/michel-martin/ One of her excellent articles, called Witness to Doubt, has the subtitle What if the enemy of faith is not doubt but certainty? Witness-to-Doubt https://www.beliefnet.com/wellness/2003/01/witness-to-doubt.aspx One of the interview sessions that Michel conducted is an enlightening discussion about how several women encountered bigotry and personal challenges in their parenting of children who have mixed ethnic heritage. The women speak about their experiences in caring for their children, either biological or adopted, with some positive and some negative results.What is a Freethinker? - Freedom From Religion Foundation: Quote The mission of the Center for Inquiry is to foster a secular society based on reason, science, freedom of inquiry, and humanist values. Unquote. https://ffrf.org/faq/feeds/item/18391-what-is-a-freethinker My own beliefs:I actually believe that every person, beyond just humans, any sentient entity has an infinite set of ways to identify themselves, and an infinite set of ways to observe reality, no two of whom can ever experience any one else's point of view exactly...If any one wants to define any aspect of reality, any characteristic of one's own existence or experience, then they are the only one who can actually do that, without beginning, without ending, without permission and without limits of any kind...my own point of view is that I exist as an infinite, eternal, intangible awareness of every aspect of existence, right now, no after life, not even a before life, everything has existed forever, it just changes shape now and then :) no one created it...

https://waveform-particle-state.blogspot.com/ This site is written by myself, Anthony Chipoletti. My pen name is Graviton Ring from my book title. External links may have quoted titles or short descriptions from their linked pages. ALL of the information which I have written here is ONLY my opinion. I cannot justify any of my beliefs, so if my ideas here offend or confuse anyone, it is probably because I am still confused about anything and everything :) My pen name is Graviton Ring from my book title.I have added many new references to the blog posts here, and I update this site when possible.The goal of this site is to express my belief that I am an intangible observer of everything physical, including myself. As an observer, I never become the observed. I create my physical existence by observing it.My own opinion about our freedom to choose is that we have the ability to define ourselves as an observer. Everyone has the freedom to define their own awareness from their own point of view. There might be billions of different ways to observe reality. Just as there are a billion different stars. There are also billions of ways to define what we observe. There are obviously billions of objects which can be observed.The question for science to answer now seems to be exactly how are any physical objects created. Or perhaps, whether what is observed is actually physical or simply perceived to be physical. Identifying awareness as solely a physical object might limit our freedom to choose.My opinions are often based on ideas such as the ones at this site: The Philosophy of Objectivism One of the ideas there that I particularly like is that it is undeniable that we exist, have an identity, and are aware of reality. Also that these three axioms are indeed undeniable, however, they are not self-evident. Rather that nothing is self-evident because everything must be tested by reality.I added many Reference web links in the transcript of the interview with Sue Grandys and added my comments to clarify what I was thinking at the time.Most of what is here is simply my own opinion, which can change from time to time. I think it is wise to believe in one's own experiences, and whatever science can prove. Please forgive me if any of my opinions seem to be unreasonable. Everyone should be free to express their opinions, and have the right to change them when they choose. Enjoy! - Anthony Chipoletti
