Look orogenicman...

I'm not trying to undermine anything you've published in your field of study...

I am happy for you...but there's always room for improvement...

However, if you would ever like to write or publish a book that's capable of making the New York Times best seller list...I can help with that...

But I'm not, cause you keep being mean to me, and resisting my premise just to resist it...

I need a James Dean or younger Marland Brondo, of the science world, to step forward...

Look, dude. Think about it. Before you start on a crusade to improve a scientific discipline, it makes perfect sense to educate yourself on that scientific discipline first. Obviously, you have skipped many steps along the way in your education, whether by design or accident at birth, who can say?

It's not a matter of resisting your premise because you are making no valid premise in the first place. All you are doing is making a fool out of yourself.

What the hll is a meglomaniac? Will you please tell me, so I can figure out if that's me or not??

And whoever this 'Walter Brown' person is...I do not want them borrowing my ideas, without at least giving me credit...if they're giving lectures based on my premise here...than they need to stop, or at least invite me along...
Now I know your are a complete fool and probably giving you the benifit of the doubt would simply mean you are pulling everyones leg - but for almost two years is a bit complusive - so what institution do you reside in?

Walt Brown and others have published books on this stuff years ago.

You have such a great mind to think of something science has been unable to and you can't do a word search ?

Okay I'll help

Yeah, I did not disagree. What's with the attiturd? Don't take you frustration with Time and Space out on me.

That's the drawback with discussions on these kinds of forums. You can't see the body language. If you took what I said as being critical of you, please accept my apologies. It was not my intention.

It might be that he's manic-depressive, especially if he has periods of depression in between this sort of high. During the manic phase, one does indeed become a megalomaniac and has almost boundless energy plus little need for sleep, and great creativity ....... as I know from having the illness (controlled by medication). When he comes down he will think of this thread with embarassment, launching him into another depression ..... IF I am right about this. But I might not be since of course I see anyone with similar symptoms as having my problem! Really there are a number of things that can result in megalomania, not just manic-depression.

I live among cliffs that were formed thousands of years ago. They are beautiful and heavily forested thus offering a place of rest and safety for birds and small animals. Natural trails were formed among the cliffs and mature trees. Those eventually came to used as a place of passage. I live on a great river, It floods periodically as it has no control over the melt rate of snow or the amount of water that falls from the sky or any other source for that matter. .

None of this explains how or why a mountian cries. It may sound a bit metaphoric and it might be but the question is genuine. I know of a place in Arkansas where where water pours freely down the mountainside as it follows a well worn path to the road below. The native's say the mountian cries.

How does this happen? Is it possible a natural source of water was trapped when the mountain formed?
