In reply to: storm 's message, "Todays question! (rather silly or deep depending on how you answer!)" on 04:22:24 05/14/01 Mon

hee hee! i'm so proud of that title! it's just so off-the-wall-bonkers. man, i love it.....

anyway, medeis, i love your rambles! they're like my morning coffee after waking up from only a few hours of interrupted sleep, sluggish and really feeling like hell and wanting to go back to sleep but i can't because the hatchling is squealing with delight and as wide awake as it's possible for anything to be....

great flitting faeries! now who's rambling! lol

*ahem* my answers, storm...

although it truly is not possible for the human mind to stretch so deep and profoundly to contemplate just how infinite the universe truly is (people have, in all seriousness, gone insane trying to do just that), we can use philosophy which is one part science, one part religion to answer it. (has anyone else here noticed that i just don't know how to be silly when it comes to storm's questions of the day? sheesh...)
i suppose that, being that i totally support the big bang theory, i must say that what is at the fringes of the ever-expanding universe (but not forever-expanding, because one day it will collapse) is what at one point filled the entire universe: absolutely nothing. not just the 'nothing' we're used to here on earth, because that 'nothing' is filled with particles, air molecules, etc. too small to be seen. at the fringes of the universe is absolute nothingness. total and absolute void, until the universe comes and fills it in with itself, that is!

of course, the very edge of the universe (try to picture the bare edge of a spill of water on a flat surface) is quantum foam. so there's us (as the center of the universe, ha ha!), the universe, the thinner-than-molecularly-thin barrier called 'quantum foam', and then after that is the absolute void of pre-big bang days.

thank you, thank you.....

yes i believe in black holes! they've only been proven beyond any scientific doubt to exist, thanks to the great genius named stephen hawking! (has everyone heard of him, the man in the wheelchair who's computer talks for him?)

white holes, i'm not too sure about...but i can always imagine they exist. in fact, a story i've been wanting to write centers on that very idea of white holes! :0)

as for what's at the end of a rainbow, i answered that question in my title. they're my lucky charms, dammit! and trix are for kids!
