#408769 — UP TO $7,000,000 IF YOU ARE SMART!

UP TO $7,000,000 IF YOU ARE SMART!

You’ve all heard me talk of my fictitious “smarter than Einstein” prize 
given to the kook theory that proves relativity wrong.  Lots of you here 
try for it, but there is no money, just honor.

Maybe you’ve heard of the Amazing Randi ESP prize offering a million 
dollars to anyone who proves ESP is real. But that prize is as bogus as 
an anonymous HVAC post. The Amazing Randi who put up the money is the 
one who gets to decide if you won!  (You didn’t!) Tee Hee!

But for all you geniuses, now is your chance to get rich and show that 
you all are really as smart as you tell everyone you are. The Clay 
Foundation of Cambridge Mass in the year 2000 put up a million dollars 
each for anyone who solves any (or more) of seven of the worlds most 
important unsolved problems of the new millennium. Clearly based on the 
bluster of the anonymous “experts” here this should be easy money! 
Problems can be found at www.claymath.org.

Something for everybody!  For a physics genius like Anonymous Odd all he 
has to do is prove the Yang-Mills Theory Mass-Gap Hypothesis.  For those 
not as smart or knowledgeable as Odd all you have to prove is:

“For any compact, simple gauge group, the quantum Yang-Mills equations 
in four dimensional Euclidean space have a solution that predicts a mass 
gap.”  So Simple!  Especially for someone with a major in math and 
philosophy like Odd.

And for Anonymous HVAC there is the Poincare Conjecture. Piece of cake 
for a God like HVAC who has already “co-authored” math books on analytic 
geometry. And best of all it’s already been solved for all dimensions 
except THREE which is of course our world! You just need to show that If 
any arbitrary loop on a topological surface can be shrunk to a point, 
then that manifold is equivalent to a hypersphere of that dimension.  A 
snap!  Everyone get ready to worship him!

UP TO $7,000,000 IF YOU ARE SMART!

For Electrical engineers like Chimp and others here there is always the 
tried and true Reimann Hypothesis!  For anyone into complex numbers like 
EEs this is just quick work. All you need to do is show that zeros of 
the complex zeta function all lie on the real +1/2 axis. Half this 
problem is already done for you since it has already been shown that all 
(infinite number of them) even negative real numbers ( -2, -4, -6, etc.) 
are zeros. You only need to find the infinite number of zeros lying on 
the real +1/2 axis and show that none lie off that axis. What could be 
easier?

And for a computer genius in mom’s basement like Rolf, we have the P vs 
NP problem. In short it comes down to this: just find a solution to the 
traveling salesman problem that is solvable in a realistic time using a 
computer. In other words show that the traveling salesman problem is a P 
rather than NP problem.  I’m sure Rolf can handle this even using 
Windoze and the million bucks will allow him to keep using Microsoft OS 
even as fees go up and up!

UP TO $7,000,000 IF YOU ARE SMART!

And lastly for those here really interested in physics and not 
psychology, a million buck waits for anyone who can solve the simple 
Navier-Stokes, equations that explain all of fluid dynamics. No 
relativity, no quantum, no imaginary numbers, just plain old-fashioned 
classical physics. Who can resist the challenge?  No “real” scientist 
that is for sure!

So have at it! I’m not entering because you all agree I’m just a kook! A 
nutjob with no education, no intelligence, a liar, a troll, and crazier 
than a shithouse rat. It has even been said I believe in ghosts and ESP. 
  So you ALL get to prove you are better than me right now. Just do it, 
you bunch of arrogant clowns.  I’ll wait right here to worship at your 
feet as you sprinkle dollar bills over my head as the ultimate insult.

On the other hand you’ll probably end up a lot richer if you “invent” 
something really stupid like Facebook or Twitter instead of trying to do 
real science.

I gave all the posting clowns here who call everyone kooks and tell us 
all what geniuses they are a chance to actually discuss some science in 
these science newsgroups. And what do I get. Mostly sounds of silence. 
HVAC was the only one with the balls to reply and all he could do is 
jabber about how he doesn't need a million dollars. I guess he hasn't 
checked out what cancer treatment can cost. Of course that was imaginary 
cancer treatment which is much cheaper. And where are all the other big 
mouth know-it-alls? All of them scared and cowering in a corner afraid 
to show how little science they all know. Best they can do is call 
anyone who actually knows science a "kook" so they can then feel better 
about their own ignorance. This has been really shameful exhibition. I 
kid you not.

Sure, Hanson, easy for you to say. You've already proved you are smarter 
than Bert and HVAC. But think of those other poor yokels here like Odd 
and Chimp who haven't even shown they are up to Bert's level level even 
if they clearly know more than Hardblow (Remember that chimp had to 
explain GS and RFQ to HVAC who is apparently as ignorant as a bag of 
Jewish Concentration Camp hair).

I'm still winning... for a 40 years about.

The my award I put on charity... mainly for the care and treatment of the orphans strongly maimed by the relativistic delusions.

That untrue. The criteria for success were agreed in advance with the 
person claiming to have psychic powers. Few people progressed beyond 
that to actually making an attempt. None succeeded.

You are lying (or mistaken...probably the former) The Amazing Randi 
(just the perfect name for a scientist, don't you think) always retained 
final say over whether conditions were met. Those were the rules not the 
ones you just made up. The rules were carefully designed to only sound 
fair but not actually be fair...you know the way you Libs always try to 
do things.

Can you cite a single case where the agreed objectives were met, but 
Randi deemed them not to have been?

Excellent misdirection! Do you do magic? Does not matter nobody met

that a fair test?
