At Last A Better Start Of Winter!

From my kitchen window today: A little snow... may it last! Must be at least seven years ago that winter started this early. Snow in the middle of October and skiing in November was common here fifteen or more years ago. Too much CO2, removing of vegetation and manmade buildings and roads are the main culprits for global warming.

So what is there to be done with violent turbulence around buildings, cars, etc?

We have the possibility to break up air current into small eddies by altering the texture or shape on the outside of flat or smooth surfaces. We know that the fish scales reduces the energy that a fish must use to get from A to B; a fish scale pattern on the boat hull is shown already in US1894256 (free of use), and combining this with other technologies, like US4320920 (also free of use), like for instance the outside of the leading edge 46 shown there, will give small eddies along the flat surfaces and cancelling out much turbulence at the corners.

(I'll keep this short and explain more of this in the book and some more of how stable turbulent air particles in a tornado gain energy and avoid much of the thermal convection that other air particles would use to break up turbulence.)

So what are you waiting for? Tell the good news to your local newspaper...
It's not too good to be true - the reason why the technology doesn't catch on (yet) is that it is free for everybody to take advantage of. Don't pay me - buy and read my book in 20-2020.

RE: Chapter IVa: Climate issues, part 1

Everything seek out stability. Both thermal convection and air molecules seek out patterns that means domination of a weather system. The most stable, less energy consuming and lasting (compact) pattern is a hexagon, like in (bee) honey cubes. Then other polygon shapes. If a pattern can't be hexagon in a system, then it is preferred to be quasi-hexagon (instable) before breaking up in both regular turbulance and irregular turbulence.

A first weather system with a seemingly stable situation might turn unstable, but more energy efficient (path of less resistance) if a second weather system with higher (turbulent) energy clash into the first one. The second weather system prefer to "attack" where the first weather system is most vulnerable - at areas with steady flow (that beeing (quasi)linear or regular nonlinear) and put some of the energy from that into itself by little energy transitions as possible. Then use more energy to take over irregular areas with nonlinear, unsteady (turbulent) flows of air molecules.

So the new combined weather system will be much the same (or in "upgraded" shape) like the second one and devastate more or less the surroundings if there is a much of the monoculture that is man made in the surroundings.

Both open fields with little or low vegatations and cities with much asphalt roads and buildings with smoth walls will "encourage" the weather systems there to gain or build up energy with some help from outside weather systems.

This probably was the reason that a big hurricane took weather forecasters by surprice when it struck southern Britain exactly 21 years today (at 15th october 1987). And this probably explain erratic behavior of hurricanes at the coast of southern USA - the hurricanes origin at a western bay of Africa, and the build up of energy there is perhaps caused by more monoculture instead of great variations of vegetations, and by more buildings that block energy travel inward land.

A lot of different air molecules (aerosols) from vegetations and a lot of small animals or insects (like butterflies) all participate to break up weather systems so they won't become quasi-regular and powerful to create swirling storms or hurricanes. More varied vegetations and less flat areas counter the effect of energy building up in the weather systems. This seems to be difficult for scientists and politicians to understand.

Chapter IVa: Climate issues, part 1

Some people think that the solutions to the climate troubles are to reflect the surplus energies away, perhaps all the way to outer space... Here's some corrections that prove that can't be done, and that the article in the end of this part GOT IT ALL WRONG:

Ice reflects the radiations from the sun - not effectively to outer space, but to the surrounding air and moisture (clouds) that bring the hotter weather systems with the currents to other places, that heat up. Reflected rays to outer space from ice (in Arctic or Antarctic) are mostly of low frequency.

Collections of hotter air that gather instead of spreading doesn't solve anythiing! Rather, it cause more melting or heating were the air isn't so cold (and dense). Same goes for concrete building and asphalt roads that likewise give more uniform heating of surroundings - hot currents from cities are the main problem!

Analogic: A butterfly can't cause a storm on the other side of Earth - but rather prevent the storm by dividing up the surplus energies (turbulence and heat). More organisms (plants and animals, big and small) to divide up energies means less turbulence and more spread out of heat. Realize this, folks!

Chapter IIIa: Sleep

Keep some light in your bedroom. Your parents are/were wrong. Early man lived for hundreds of generations in dangerous environments with not much more than his fire to protect against enemies or predators. If the camp fire got completely out, wild animals could attack. So it was important to let some of the fire shine toward the sleeping place. Otherwise our ancestors could not get to sleep or woke up too early. It was beneficial to wake up before the animals attacked if the camp fire got out during the night - to restart the fire. That could take some time, so if you wake up during the night because of no or little light in your bedroom, you should not try to sleep again right away. Put on some warm clothes, and get some more light/heat in your bedroom (or get this outside the bedroom) and you soon are ready to sleep again.

Curtains should not cover the window in your bedroom completely, or at least not be too dark if they cover the whole window. Then your sleep (dreams) is regulated accordingly to the nights and the mornings. You will feel more rested.

If you live in a country with little sunshine at least part of the year: Two hours or less before bedtime take a vitamin D tablet (most effective: vitamin D3) or two. (But don't call me in the morning!).

RE: Fall

Seems that I should have mentioned why (some) leaves turn red in fall: The leaves produce anthocyanins (a reddish stuff). If there are little nitrogen (and other elements) in the ground, the leaves produce more anthocyanins. The trees get (some of) the nutritionts from the leaves when they fall on the ground near the trees and decompose (and perhaps also some of the nutritionts when the leaves are still left on the trees). See link below.

Anthocyanins occur naturally in some plants with red leaves, especially if the photosynthesis isn't so active in those plants. That means they get more of other nutritionts directly from the leaves (perhaps some antioxidants) by use of the anthocyanins.

Red berries and blue berries in the woods also protect the plants they grow on against microbes and plant illnesses (and probably other plants) by their content of antioxidants. Blueberry plants often have some red leaves, especially if they live in the shade of other plants or trees (or the ground make much shade). So anthocyanins is (at least in some degree) a sort of replacement for photosynthesis among several plants.

If you look at trees getting reddish leaves, you see that leaves in cold or windy parts are more reddish. They still contribute with some temperature protection of the more green leaves on the inside parts, so the green leaves still have some photosynthesis.

Chapter II: Why (Most) Africans Are Poor

During Ice Ages (and somewhat between) some Neandertals, living in the North or the Middle of Europe, probably were moving South, but (old) Erectus or (new) Sapiens on the other side were travelling North to avoid too much heat and thereby little resources even further South. Besides, the South of Europe and North of Africa had a much wetter climate due to glacier melting or the blocking of downfall in the North of Europe. Ice and snow areas blocked much of the downfall in North of Europe, and rivers of melting water and rainfall nearby in the south meant that more food resources were available there.

Because the Neandertals had been living in the North and the Middle of Europe, they knew how to claim the food, that gradually were much of the same type that they got further north. The Sapiens were probably driven somewhat south by the Neandertals, but after a while a few smarter individuals adapted to both food in the north and south. They who could not adapt, went to stay back in the North of Africa. There they built large villages that meant a lot of people on a familiar diet, but the resources of food there got smaller and smaller. War between tribes had to arise; that meant the best warriors got rewarded on the expense of more intelligent or creative people. "Brawn over brain".

After a lot of generations the savage genes dominated much of the populations in Africa, while the Sapiens in the north (and partly south) had to keep together and cooperate to outwit the Neandertals, that probably got scared off to barren land in the end. Ingenuity were rewarded in the north, while strength and quick abilities were rewarded in the south (the best athletic people are often Africans, while inventors and discoverers are most often people with origins in the northern parts of Earth).

With the most aggressive men to be rewarded with the best resources (women, cattle and land) in Africa (and partly Asia) during hundreds of generations, there is no wonder that Africans (and some Asians and Latinos) are inferior to other people (with origins in the north) by running the societies in a peaceful and democratic manner. This the politicans must learn and understand to ever manage to reverse the bad developments we have seen the last hundred years.
