10/10/10 day, what will happen?

Most predictions and opinions concerning 10/10/10 are based on or are rooted in its mathematical uniqueness as a number.

101010: There are three possible outcomes:
  1. Something good happens— There is absolutely no scientific basis for this belief. There are no known logical premises for this belief. The belief that something good will happen is based solely on spiritualism, faith, and/or innate optimism. This belief is not necessarily a bad thing; we don’t know everything; the probability is not zero.
  2. Nothing happens— This is the most likely scenario. Just because an unusual date number sequence occurs doesn’t mean that something will happen. Usually it’s a non-event.
  3. Something bad happens— There is absolutely no scientific basis for this belief. There are no known logical premises for this belief. The belief that something bad will happen is based solely on pessimism of reality. This belief is not necessarily false; after all, things are generally/usually a mess. The probability is not zero.

Information on 2010

If asked to choose between a government without newspapers or newspapers without a government, I should not hesitate a moment to prefer the latter.
But I should mean that every man should receive those papers, and be capable of reading them.

You got to have a dream,
if you don't have a dream,
how you gonna have a dream come true?

The universe is wider than our views of it


I stand upon my desk to remind myself that we must constantly look at things in a different way.

Something we must never forget

Everything that can be counted does not necessarily count; everything that counts cannot necessarily be counted.

One of the most enjoyable place in the world

Unluckily you can't see the best thing you can find in Australia: the kindness and the smile of Aussie people.

My way

That's one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind.

Space has not changed but technology has, in many cases, improved dramatically. A good example is digital technology where today's cell phones are far more powerful than the computers on the Apollo Command Module and Lunar Module that we used to navigate to the moon and operate all the spacecraft control systems.

Prospettive

I tipi di lavoro sono due: il primo, modificare la posizione di materia sulla o vicino alla superficie della Terra rispettivamente ad altra materia simile; il secondo, dire ad altre persone di fare questo. Il primo tipo è brutto e mal pagato; il secondo è piacevole e pagato molto bene.
