Continuing a Discussion With Hans...
"And you haven't shown it."
I beg To Differ,I have Not only Shown it...
I have Risen to the Challenge Put Forth By a Member of This BBS
and Absolutely Came through with Flying Colours,As I offered Not an Opinion per se as You have
but let the axis do the talking.
"And you would appear more rational if you quit capitalizing every other word."
You appear to have a "hang up" with the Way I post but that bias is your shortcoming not mine.
Within that silly Statement also resides a truer insight on how you regard anything I say...
as it doesn't satisfy your Dogmatic leanings towards what you misconstrue as the way a person "should"
communicate,you already begin to reject what is being said based on your stifling criteria.
You should feel blessed that I don't 'rap' like Eminem and I feel that your opinion of what is or isn't
'rational thought' will reside only between your ears wether I capitalise a word or not.
I don't recall submitting anything for your perusal with the intent of being graded on my Grammer.
Get used to it.It's my Style.
"Good. Let me rephrase then: You have not shown any alignment."
This ,again,is an opinion.
I dislike being presumptuous but I have up to and including now,read enough of your thoughts to comfortably
form a loose opinion that probably has much merit.You have Not read my Thread @ Anomalies .net
You have not read any of the links I have provided and probably won't anytime soon.You are obviously Sceptical and rightly so.
You are of the belief that I am offering an "Opinion" of these alignments when,in fact,I am only offering evidence.
Your Failure to see these alignments does NOT agree with Most Sceptics as they See them and offer
Counter alignments as rebuttals while you offer words.Citing only these instances as Stated Above I can Honestly say You have not
Looked too far into this and Therefore are NOT equipped to offer Your Opinion I am sorry to say.
unfortunately also,You are just Plain and simply Wrong in other regards.
"But looking for alignments is not anthropocentric??"
A great Reply Hans.
Though it May well qualify in that category...I offer that it is an exercise in exploration.
Geometry is one of the "Identifiers" espoused by Carl Sagan and Others as an Indicator of artificial offworld civilisations.
I Easily can see that You would no doubt subscribe to the Arrogant belief that WE(humanity/Earth) are all that there is as far as life goes
and would not entertain that right 'next door' to us in the Solar system this may have played itself out in the past,
I Harbour no such close-mindedness and truly hope you in fact,Dont either.
As You may be Comfortable and might love to carry on in the world with the insular belief that all is known and quantified,I am Not.
Looking for alignments...
This is somewhat of a metaphor really about Looking for life in all the right places ,wether past and extinct or presently viable.
Surely this is No worse than Columbus looking for the Silk Route ,Finding the Western world ,While everyone was Telling Him the world was Flat.
Someone Has to Look...as it Appears You are not engaged in the search Actively...Gimme A Ship Ferdinand.
You Are Quite Welcome To Follow the Exploits of Malin and Edgette.
And will be Satisfied in the Geology they study.
They are NOT equipped with the Faculties to Offer opinions on Archeology or Biology any More than You Or I, and I believe Independant researchers
Consistantly discover and provide better theories than they do.
But Then again.Malin is a Contractor and Has a Camera design and Images to sell.Integrity is not something I would totally ascribe to the gentleman.
I distrust Salesmen.I'd kick the tires on anything issuing from his FOR PROFIT VENTURE.
"No you did not. You pasted the same picture three times at various angles, end even then did not achieve alignment."
You would do well to Clarify this as I don't have a Clue as to what image/Images you are referring to
I look Forward to Further Discuusion once I am on the Same page as You.
"They are aligned on the coarse picture, but not in reality."
"They are aligned" Excuse me ? I thought they were not aligned.But we seem to be at a communications Impasse
I'm not "Getting" your point as You are not obviously getting mine...but you will.
You refer to 100 mpp Thermal Images while I believe SkinWalkers Offerings From MGS/MOC are of the Highest order of resolution and are in Visible Light.
I Seriously Doubt You noticed That and Also Doubt You have enough Information on What I am saying to even form an Opinion as steadfast and Sure as you Portray.
You Jumped in the Discussion without the Capacity to Properly assess it.
I enjoy Talking with You Sir.This is merely a begginning for You.
In a sufficiently coarse pixellation EVERYTHING becomes aligned. Do you know nothing about graphics processing? These pictures from Mars are coarse (100m/pixel) thermal maps. They have afterwards been alialized in order not to look blocky.
