This site is essentially about technology, past and present, and our interaction with it.
It has been created as a place to help capture notes and information of interest to work from, share and discuss with others. Researchers, writers and publishers on the subject of science and civilisation have created a journey of interest and inquiry to which input from other readers perhaps also able, and willing, to make a contribution to the notes and questions here.
Three strands of interest in particular account for the selection of material chosen here, either linked or deposited for discussion occasionally – intelligence in nature, an understanding of earlier civilisations such as the Old Kingdom of Egypt, particularly the 4th Dynasty and its pyramids, and quartz – yep, quartz.
Beside the substantiated and recognisably scholarly material, much nonsense will probably show up amid the alternate and more esoteric to be sifted through while in search of a worthwhile idea to explore. Even Einstein, in challenging quantum mechanics, asked if the moon was there only when he looked at it, putting at ease the lay person here when asking seemingly daft questions in response to an interest or regard for the alternative.
The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existing

Visit the notes upon a range of topics above and in the ‘Questions for Comment’ section of the navigation bar you can post relevant contributions and responses to the questions raised, some of which perhaps straightforward to resolve while others may sustain a greater curiosity.
Thank you for your interest and enjoy your visit.
