Not all bush people take regular showers, Easter and Christmas for sure though. lol

How about bringing your own incense tea ball or whatever, light Enigma chanting etc.
I don't live in the bush. Haven't for almost twenty years. And I haven't been in a church for about twice that long.

Actually, it has only been 11 years since I moved to town (brain fart). I have live in a adjacent to the forest for the best part of (72 - 02) 30 years. Living in civilization is detrimental to my well being and I hope to escape from here soon.

Your video was an exercise in mental masturbation that is of no use to me. I do not need to dissect life to understand it. In school I was a math genius, in the wild, I have very little use for it. The forest is my church. It provides every thing I need for my physical, mental and spiritual well being.

Being in the bush is also partly a mental exercise, hopefully wise you up better than this 'city kid'. He is a die-hard fan of Ron Paul, no big deal, he is also anti-religion, again, no big deal. Yet Ron Paul says religion is a person matter and then says no more. When this guy brags upp that statement he doesn't stop, he has to give his rendition of 'his religion' which is basically doing just the opposite of what his favorite politician says, a political vid where he voices his religious views. Somewhat along the line of yours, (not a big deal) Ron Paul didn't stat his, could this guy support Ron if it came out that he did go to Church every Sunday? For being city raised I wouldn't say he was the sharpest knife in the fork drawer and would he chances of being a valued member of the campaign have taken a nose dive if it was 'Christian based'? Being from the bush did you ever watch the same movie more than once? Course you have, in those movies did you catch all the intention clues the writer left fot the audience of did you ever pick up just an item or two that you missed on a previous watch? Swordfish would be a good example that I can identify that pattern in.

Why does the bush have to be Hobo City at the same time. Homesteading with excessive funds would be a blast, need a trail too small for quads, build your own, a single track about 24in wide and 4 ft long with hydrostatic F/R. Since moving material would be 'restrictive to straight in either direction the 'dozer' end would be an 'blade' where the bottom 12in is a track systen laying on it's side and it can also move in both directions. If the uphill side is to your right that is where the conveyor would be spinning in a L to R direction. If the slope is R to L then the direction of travel would be in the opposite direction. That should make it possible to do a 4ft cut in 4 passes or less. Trailing that dozer/tractor combination could be some smaller lighter versions to do the back-sloping. In hilly country a sidehill should be buil about 1/4 the speed you could walk. $800,000 to build the machine for a trail 100m long from the house to the $80,000 fishpond. That is 'bush-life', today a 'cabin' could be a modular dome about 20ft in diameter, above ground, in ground, half and half, same design and assembled as fast a spotting a mobile.

I know a place that is true bush, the last homestead is several ridges behind you and the bush part is just starting so bring a good pair of legs, or a trail making machine that even the deer will use.

I thought you were there for 40 years, never mind , next time you're heade4d there take a sharp pencil and these equations with you.
The lady's not much of a mathematician. Wau is not a number, it's a function that'll take on multiple values based on the values of the variables plugged into it. Like most functions, it can be expressed in multiple ways as the sum of an infinite series, she just fiddles with it a bit by taking one term in one of the possible series representations, then two terms, then three, and so on, nothing particularly mysterious about it.

It would seem that any number that has a repeating decimal qualifies. It wasn't posted to 'prove anything. it was for cliffy to contemplate on if he ever went back to the bush.

Qualifies for what? There's an infinite number of such numbers, no biggy. For something amazing to contemplate, consider Euler's equation,
, which establishes the deep connection between the exponential function, the trigonometric functions, and complex numbers. And it goes deeper. From the link below:

"If we substitute the value
into Euler's equation, then we get:
This equation is called Euler Identity showing the link between 5 fundamental mathematical constants; 0, 1,
,
, and
."

Euler's Equation

Leonhard Euler, now *there* was a serious mathematician. Nobody'd have guessed there was such a connection between two irrational numbers, the "imaginary" number, 0, and 1. This is the mathematical equivalent to the Mona Lisa.

Perhaps cliffy will want that formula also, as for me I came from bush country and if I went back it would include having a keyboard and a calculator.

How about something more in line with the Bible. Can you determine if the chart below has picked the proper year for the cross? The conditions are 3 days and 3 nights and a few poi9nts might be debated, such as does there have to be a new moon after the spring equinox before the first full moon is rightfully called passover. The March 25 date below would be invalid because of no new moon so Passover should be the next full moon 30 days later or April 24

If you can produce corroborating evidence for the claims in Matthew 27 about other events that happened at the crucifixion--you know, 3 hours of darkness, earthquakes, rocks splitting, graves opening and dead people wandering around Jerusalem--sure, I'll give it a try.

You just gave the data yourself. The question was about the partial day and if it qualifies for being 1 of the 3 days so who came out of the graves on Sunday morning is not important. If you need more then don't reply, actually it wouldn't surprise me if nobody here can give a qualified answer.

Really, Matthew 27 is the corroborating evidence? You can't corroborate the Bible with the Bible, that's not what corroboration means. There's no record of those events anywhere else, and there should be if they happened, particularly the earthquakes, those tend to get noticed over quite a large area.
...who came out of the graves on Sunday morning is not important.
Agreed, what's important is the claim that it happened at all. You'd think somebody would have noticed people rising from their graves, but again, those claims exist nowhere but in the Bible, in texts written about 40 years after the fact by people who weren't there. Embellishment is the inescapable conclusion, the events did not happen as described.

No Dex what was important to the last few posts was a basic answer that a partial day counts as 1 of the 3 mentioned days or it doesn't. In typical fashion you took it so far into the extremes that it became unanswerable for you alone. lol

How about you provide proof 'they/you' have the start of the universe correct before you answer any other questions at all???

Really MHz, trying to get sense out of you is like playing chess with a parrot. Doesn't matter how well one plays, the parrot's just going to knock over the pieces, crap on the board, and strut around as if it's done something important. Reality has passed you by.
