something unusual today from a brilliant architect!

*hopes nacmat is doing well*

Everything you've learned in school as `obvious' becomes
less and less
obvious as you begin to study the universe. For example,
there are no
solids in the universe. There's not even a suggestion of a
solid. There are no absolutecontinuums. There are no
surfaces. There are no straight lines.

-R. Buckminster Fuller, engineer, designer, and architect
(1895-1983)

I don't really understand what he means by 'there are no
solids in the universe' but I know this guy thanks to Add N
to (X) who borrow his name for one of their tracks.

NB: there's 3 natural states (gaz - liquid - solid) for each
element of the periodic table.

Maybe he's referring to the fact that molecules (?) never
totally stop moving, even in solids, unless it's at absolute
zero (which, i believe, only exists in theory)...or course I
have no idea what I'm talking about. I got a C in
chemistry.
