I read and remember words alphabetically forwards, but I think that I
subconsciously process words backwards. According to the following
link, that behavior is not dyslexia. I think that it is the
application of reverse polish notation to processing of the English
language.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dyslexia
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reverse_Polish_notation
I think that learning the English language would be far easier for
everyone if the dictionaries were to be organized in the opposite
direction of the current fashion.

While I was reading articles, I made up a list of (*ion and *ing)
words to be posted. When the list exceeded 500 words, I decided not to
post links. I suggest that you should just look a word up in Wikipedia
if you want to know more about it. Then you should follow the links
which are included in each article until you run out of steam.

While I was looking over what I have posted previously, I noticed a
common defect. I often omitted words which I assumed would be inferred
by readers. I assumed that the meaning could be either deduced or
induced. I suspect that I was quite wrong.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inference

I recommend reading the following thread from the end toward the
start.

The three links which I have given below have mediocre variations of
what I whistle to feel good, but they will do until I find some which
are better. I suggest that you should listen to them with your eyes
closed, and that you should not look at the screen.

Are you a citizen of the U.S.A. as I am ? If so then I suggest that
you should use the following link.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:American_patriotic_songs

The following two links are given in honor of the current visit to the
U.S.A. by Queen Elizabeth II, who is the Head of the Commonwealth of
Nations.

You might very well be asking yourself 'What am I ?' by now. I am an
omnivorous onion growing from the world's cultural compost heap. With
enough nourishing inputs, I add layers daily as I recall forgotten
memories and I discover other things which I missed when they
happened. You can be an onion too if you simply try it. "Think of it
as evolution in action". I especially recommend the following web
pages for listening, but you should close your eyes. I say that
because tying up the processing power of your brain simultaneously
with both visual and auditory inputs is not smart when your
intellectual capacity is under stress. I also suspect that many of the
videos posted on youtube.com contain harmful subliminal content even
when they are not overtly bad.

Relevant quotes :
http://www.nic.com/~porkchop/onstage/public.html

Enter the gladiator - circus theme :
I found only two very poor audio renditions and the video was bad.
When I tried to open up a promising looking web page, the computer
which I am using rebooted. So I ask former circus people to post the
best available recordings at your convenience.

I am a firm believer in God, a firm believer in the power of positive
thinking, and now I am also a novice disk jockey. When I am in need, I
call upon God for help. I do not submit to any lesser beings who are
breaking the laws. I feel free to do anything for so long as it is
legal, moral, and ethical according to a personal code of conduct
which I follow. If I am bothered by a pest, I swat it. The non-
aggression principal only stretches so far......

I grew a lot in the past couple of days.
1) I am a citizen of the "U.S.A." rather than the "US". Perhaps that
is why I see the Situation with unpopular opinions.
2) I am a past discus hurler, javelin thrower, and pole vaulter.
3) I am an eater of onions, bananas, crackers, cheeses, and
pepperonis. I am an eater of candies such as mint patties, mounds
bars, tootsie pops, m&m's, fruit chews, tootsie rolls, Hershey's
kisses and miniatures, and hard candies. I am a drinker of teas, and I
sometimes use soft drinks as mouthwash.
4) I am living in a house which is a home for pet cats. I prefer cats
rather than dogs. Cats are proud and independent. Dogs are loyal but
slavish. Which would you rather be, a cat or a dog ?

I especially recommend the following web pages for listening, but you
should close your eyes. I say that because tying up the processing
power of your brain simultaneously with both visual and auditory
inputs is not smart when your intellectual capacity is under stress. I

Select "the famous Tarzan yell" from :
http://users.skynet.be/sky40152/movie.htm

Every generation considers the succeeding generations to be deficient
in some way, even when the quality of life has improved. Such is just
the case with the baby boomer's generation. We have seen tremendous
strides in technology coupled with deterioration of the social fabric,
and personal freedoms encroached upon by the insatiable growth of
government. The Tarzan yell given above is a wakeup call to action for
all of the politically disengaged and dispirited citizens of the
U.S.A. who may be reading this. To misquote "born to be wild" :
Let's fire off all of our neurons at once,
and really shake up this mis-er-able place!

This call to action comes after years during which I had an apathetic
outlook. I often thought "not my problem" and "who cares anyway". Such
an outlook is defeatism at its worst. I encourage all of you to take
an active role in politics and seek ways in which you can improve
society and culture. For the next few weeks I will be recovering lost
memories by listening to music and making endorsements of what I like.
Then I may browse wikipedia for a while to see what has happened in
technology during the past couple of decades. I am uncertain of what I
will be doing after that.

See the post of May 10, 3:45 pm too. You should read this thread
backwards.

I am having great fun driving this toy Lincoln down the information
superhighway! If you have suffered a collision due to what I have been
doing, then I humbly apologize, dust you off, shake you out, kick you
in the fender to the shoulder, and encourage you to get back in gear
as soon as you have recovered your composure. I advise you to drive
cautiously and avoid driving when you are under the influence of
fatigue or illegal mind altering substances. Legal mind altering
substances are essential for obtaining full enjoyment of the
superhighway experience. Sugar and chocolate are highly recommended. I
hope that the metaphorical allusions in the statements above were not
beyond your comprehension. If they were, then perhaps you should watch
the television set instead like a good lumpen slave. See :

For comparison I checked out the site which follows. They sing slowly
and make the songs sound like dirges. Is that the best our bloated
government can do to muster enthusiasm for the U.S.A. ? I suggest that
you turn off the weird visuals.

See the post of May 10, 3:45 pm too. You should read this thread
backwards.

I am motivated mostly by the memory of how bored I was. I am having
fun now. If what I am doing is inconvenient for some of the power
elite, then their inconvenience is balanced by the benefits to society
of further activity. I already see evidence of increased
sophistication in commercials. I get a tingle of pleasure from some,
which I will not specify. That was not happening before, so I suppose
that the time which I have spent on instructional examples has not
been wasted. The downside is that the typical lumpen slave watcher
becomes even more a helpless puppet of sophisticated psychological
manipulation. On the other hand, competing messages may inoculate the
public against manipulation in the long term.

Something has gone seriously wrong at youtube in the past couple of
days. I now get downloaded message traffic during play of recordings
so heavy that less than a third of the time is actually spent playing
the recording. Also annoying are pop-up advertisements which inhibit
fast scrolling or even lock up the browser. So this post is devoted to
movies and musings rather than new selections of pleasant music. I
also am unable to access the "Tarzan yell" web page due to a server
error. Too bad, it was fun while it lasted. For the next few days
until the situation improves, I will be typing up books from the 1986
master list on rec.arts.sf.written.....

Every generation considers the succeeding generations to be deficient
in some way, even when the quality of life has improved. Such is just
the case with the baby boomer's generation. We have seen tremendous
strides in technology coupled with deterioration of the social fabric,
and personal freedoms encroached upon by the insatiable growth of
government. The Tarzan yell given above is a wakeup call to action for
all of the politically disengaged and dispirited citizens of the
U.S.A. who may be reading this. To misquote "born to be wild" :
Let's fire off all of our neurons at once,
and really shake up this mis-er-able place!

This call to action comes after years during which I had an apathetic
outlook. I often thought "not my problem" and "who cares anyway". Such
an outlook is defeatism at its worst. I encourage all of you to take
an active role in politics and seek ways in which you can improve
society and culture. For the next few weeks I will be recovering lost
memories by listening to music and making endorsements of what I like.
Then I may browse wikipedia for a while to see what has happened in
technology during the past couple of decades. I am uncertain of what I
will be doing after that.

It is interesting to note that while I was dealing with psychologists
and psychiatrists over the years, that not a single one of them has
ever had the wit, interest, or possibly courage enough to ask the
right questions. The fundamental question which they should have been
asking is "Will you please tell me what is going on inside your
head ?". Rather than ask that question they chose to bring their
prejudices, preconceptions, assumptions, biases, professional
arrogance, and intellectual inferiority into play. They asked such
stupid questions as "Do you hear voices?" and "Are you having
hallucinations?". I answered their explicit and limited inquiries with
a simple honest "No, not at all" or the equivalent. I am now going to
reveal here to you that since the very earliest childhood which I can
recall, I have heard TUNES and SONGS. Furthermore what I hear is often
not a faithful reproduction of what the ears heard. Instead I get the
distilled essence of the composition as processed by mental activity.
Even during the most intense intellectual activity, I hear MUSIC. When
a particular theme becomes monotonous, I simply switch mental tracks
to something else which is more interesting or pleasurable. Even in
the depths of mind altering drug abuse as prescribed by the
government's doctors during the past nine years, I still heard certain
selected wordless themes. Since I am having a problem with youtube, I
present here a Wikipedia list of those musical themes from the
classical composers. The order is more or less the same as the
frequency of mental playback.

I decided after those two to become a bit more systematic. So I did a
search and found the following wikipedia resource. Although it is
obviously a work in progress, it was very helpful as a reminder of old
songs. So I made up a list of familiar hits from 1956 to 1960. As I
located a performance of each hit, I checked out the "more from this
user" tab to see what else was posted by someone who had excellent
taste in music and access to old recordings. In some cases this was a
very productive strategy. See :
http://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/1956

I am pleased to report that I have finally exterminated the last pest
on the computer which I use. I found a dozen software packages to
uninstall. I deleted over 500 megabytes of .xml files. I deleted over
three gigabytes of tracking cookies. I upgraded to commercial grade
software for all security and performance tasks. The number of tasks
running has dropped from over 60 to about 30. The number of outgoing
connections blocked by the security software in the network router
dropped dramatically. Unfortunately the computer is too old to
effectively run both youtube downloads and all the security stuff at
the same time. So the first play of a video is still interrupted by
transferring files taking longer than playback. Once downloaded
completely the music plays well enough. I can live with it until I get
a modern computer.....

I found a much better resource for locating old forgotten tunes :

********** This post features movies **********

I spent four days searching Wikipedia movie/actor/director links to
make up the lists below. I am cutting the list short because this post
is getting a bit long. I expect that a more systematic search will
find over a thousand movies which I find worth watching. Further posts
on this topic will follow sometime soon.

If you have limited time, then watch something starring or directed by
Clint Eastwood.

Select "MGM yell" from :
http://www.tvacres.com/commun_signals_tarzan.htm

Every generation considers the succeeding generations to be deficient
in some way, even when the quality of life has improved. Such is just
the case with the baby boomer's generation. We have seen tremendous
strides in technology coupled with deterioration of the social fabric,
and personal freedoms encroached upon by the insatiable growth of

government. The Tarzan yell given above is a wakeup call-to-action for

all of the politically disengaged and dispirited citizens of the
U.S.A. who may be reading this. To misquote "born to be wild" :
Let's fire off all of our neurons at once,
and really shake up this mis-er-able place!

This call to action comes after years during which I had an apathetic
outlook. I often thought "not my problem" and "who cares anyway". Such
an outlook is defeatism at its worst. I encourage all of you to take

an active role in politics and to seek ways in which you can improve

society and culture. For the next few weeks I will be recovering lost
memories by listening to music and making endorsements of what I like.
Then I may browse wikipedia for a while to see what has happened in
technology during the past couple of decades. I am uncertain of what I
will be doing after that.

9) Some of you may be wondering by now what a "roach" is. Until I
crawled out of the woodwork, I was not even sure that I was a roach.
The subspecies I call roach is drawn from a large pool of subspecies
including but not limited to loose cannons, lightning rods, nerds,
hackers, and geeks. Most of them still do not know that they are
roaches. We are politically disengaged vermin lacking all respect for
authority and/or authority figures. We may do what you ask but we
will never, ever follow your orders. We may give you more help than
you feel is strictly necessary. We do not know each other, and we do
not want to know each other. A true roach (like me) will not hold
political office or work for any government. Some of us will certainly
get squashed, but as we scurry about we shall have almost as much fun
as while playing a really good computer game.
I am a baby boomer and evolved activist roach, hauling on levers of
criticism in an attempt to ratchet society and culture towards what I
think is a better systemic state. I hope to convince the power elite
that there is more profit in the world view which I approve than in
what I see as the sick situation in the world today. If I am unable to
succeed then I will probably morph into a stainless steel rat.....

fiction or fantasy...

After paging through Wikipedia and making notes about actors and
directors for the movies which I have already posted, I decided to
become a bit more systematic. As a consequence I discovered that my

Deep thoughts to ponder :

http://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/topics/topic_education.html
http://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/topics/topic_experience.html
http://library.thinkquest.org/22254/frquot.htm

I have a view of organized religions similar to that of Benjamin
Franklin - they are not to be trusted.

The quote below is from Nov 3, 1997 on the thread :
http://groups.google.com/group/misc.invest.marketplace/browse_thread/thread/5425d3d053acc5f4/2909ed9b453a8d99?lnk=st&q=tc5526%40aol.com&rnum=8&hl=en#2909ed9b453a8d99

"I was brought up in a fanatically religious home and escaped by going
into the military at age 17. I have never trusted an organized
religion since. If you read the holy book of your faith, chances are
that you will discover that there is a division of labor allocated
between God and the Devil. It is God's job to spread love. It is the
Devil's job to spread hatred. Next time your religious instructor
speaks as intermediary between you and some Almighty power, you should
check for yourself who is instructing him (or her)."

Some people who seem to be a bit confused about whose hot-line they
are using :
http://woubiyossi.tribe.net/thread/a638448e-aad3-455c-9428-e87fbceb3b8d

In case there is some confusion, I am a male heterosexual. I have
never married because I am socially inept, have never been financially
well enough off to support a family, and I am choosy about potential
mates. In particular I want a wife who is interested in having
children, attractive, intelligent, talented, sociable, affectionate,
educated, patient, sober, moral, ethical, and above all hard-working
rather than lazy. Those who idolize such irascible porkers as Rosie
O'Donnell need not apply.

Children watch television before they can even read. Have you
considered what lessons your children or grandchildren are learning
from television and the internet ? Yes of course you have, but what
are they learning when you are not around ? I can recall TV shows from
the age of three. I watched about 30-50 hours per week from that age
up until age 14. With a little help and effort, I am able to give a
list of what I watched 35+ years after the fact.

********** This post features TV series **********

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:1950s_American_television_series
All of these below rang a bell, but some are probably remembered more
due to their 1960s continuations.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:1960s_American_television_series
I omit here those which are already given above.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tennessee_Tuxedo_and_His_Tales
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Top_Cat
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Flintstones

I noticed that the list above did not include several cartoon series
which I recalled. So I checked and found the link below. It seems to
be a work in progress so far as breaking down series by decades goes.
I might visit it in a later post to find more of the dozens of cartoon
series which I watched.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Animated_television_series

I am going to break off the listing at this point because I watched
relatively little television from 1970 onwards until 1990. When I
turned 14 in 1970 I started working for Henry Meyer concessions at the
mid-south fairgrounds selling pronto pups and soft drinks to the
marks. Although the hourly pay rate was low, I drank more than the
wages-worth of soft drinks for free. I was usually able to sit back in
a chair and watch the world go by. In the summer it was uncomfortably
hot, but ice helped cure that. The park played the same six selections
over and over without end, which was thoroughly annoying. Working
until summer 1973, I earned more money than all of the allowances and
chore money up to 1970 combined. I even gave some money to my parents
every week rather than getting money from them.....

Also in 1970 I started high school. I was determined to win a
scholarship to a prestigious university. So I focused on studying
during all of the time which would normally have been devoted to
leisure activities. As it turned out, I was a high school dropout to
enter the USAF in 1973. I had the last laugh however, because I got
out of the military in 1974 with an Honorable Discharge, a GED, and a
year's worth of college credit by examination. So I started school at
MSU (later renamed University of Memphis) in the same semester as high
school classmates but as a sophomore rather than a freshman. I had GI
Bill benefits that lasted for over two years, scholarships for tuition
after the first semester, student employment by the university until I
graduated, Basic Educational Opportunity Grants, and Guaranteed
Student Loans. I lived the life of Riley, living in an apartment
rather than at home and eating better than ever before. I studied hard
enough to graduate with a BSEE Summa Cum Laude. The wage which I
received after graduation was more per year than my father ever
earned, which was a moral victory.

I made very little progress on recalling music during the past week,
because for some reason I stopped getting a thrill from any music.
Maybe I depleted whatever neurotransmitters were stimulating my
pleasure centers through over-usage.....
I set up additional playlists for the popular selections in previous
posts so that you do not need to use the links provided to browse the
music posted.

Today's post begins 1975.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1975_in_music

Rather than give more links here, further posts will refer you to the
YouTube channel which I set up. You can select music from the most
recently found by using the "favorites" list. Alternatively you can
access by the order posted above using the link tab for "playlists"
then select the "Thrilling music" playlist. In that playlist the links

for 1975 are selections 123-126 with more to come.

Deep thoughts to ponder :
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiverse
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simulated_reality

What is the purpose of Life ? I am inclined to think that it is the
accumulation of "karma" or to put it less religiously, a high score in
the "reality" game played by higher dimensional "souls". Such a score
takes into account the initial circumstances of a being's life,
advantages/abilities, handicaps, effort expended, efficiency,
achievements in areas of focus etc. When it is all combined a
comparison to the score before "birth" is made and the result
determines the choices available for the next incarnation. Examples of
high scorers in specific areas of focus :
1) Wealth - Bill Gates, Howard Hughes, Rockefeller, Croesus, all who
have been wealthiest in the world at some point.
2) Power/Military - Presidents of the U.S.A., Napoleon, Julius Caesar,
Alexander the Great / Stalin, Hitler, Attila the Hun (evil counts
too).
3) Religious - name your own favorites.
4) Politicians - name your own favorites.
5) Entertainers of all stripes including but not limited to composers,
authors, artists, singers, and actors.
6) Sports/athletic greats - name your own favorites.
7) Scientists/Philosophers/Mathematicians/Inventors - Einstein,
Edison, Laplace, Fourier, Newton, Plato etc.
8) Fame excluding the above performers - criminals come to mind
9) Masters of the unusual - see Guinness at :
http://www.guinnessworldrecords.com/

Well by those standards, I have a puny score. So I am trying to
improve it by a bit of meddling in other people's business. Since I
apparently lack the talent to do anything which is particularly
outstanding as such above, I am going for points on style. See
collection "Ten Points For Style" of Maijstral stories by :

Rather than give more music links here, future posts will refer you to
the YouTube channel which I set up "ClayLC2". You can select music

from the most recently found by using the "favorites" list.
Alternatively you can access by the order posted above using the link

tab for "playlists" then select the "Thrilling music" playlist. Other
playlists give good music selections previously posted above.

http://www.youtube.com/ClayLC2

If you find a selection which you like, then you may find the
suggested videos presented after the current video is played to be
helpful. An important group of tabs is the "related/ more from this
user/ playlists". Read the YouTube faqs to learn how to navigate

YouTube. You can also select the channel of the person who posted the
current video.

I am unable to use youtube because it now often takes ten times as
long to load a video as it does to play it. This is not due to
processor execution load because the highest load during play is only
50%. It is also not due to wireless link load because the highest
usage there is only 0.5%. There is some serious problem with the
wireless transmission, which was briefly solved by buying a 9Db gain
antenna, with video loading much faster than playback. Unfortunately
within a week the link strength dropped from very good back down to
low again. The diagnostics indicate that 50% of packets are lost and
it often takes four tries to get packets through. I lack the technical
equipment, expertise, and money to correct the problem. I lack the
money to buy a second cable channel direct link to comcast. So unless
something changes there will be no new music posts on channel ClayLC2.

Deep thoughts to ponder :

What has happened in physics since 1979 ? Quite a bit.....
http://www.webelements.com/
http://www.nndc.bnl.gov/chart/
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gamma_spectroscopy
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neutron_activation_analysis
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_particles
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Force
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physics
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematics
I forgot most of the math and have nothing to contribute.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryptography
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Information_theory
Due to the DMCA it is illegal in the U.S.A. to discuss the things
which I have considered over the past 20 years in the areas of
unjammable communications and unbreakable codes. The government would
never pay me what it is worth to reveal innovations which I have
considered. Change the law and I might sell something to a company.

Upon consideration I think that I can get away with broad hints which
should be intuitively obvious to the professionals.

1) The optimum detection and decoding algorithm utilizes the natural
response functions of the transmitter/medium/receiver systems to
filter out noise and extract the information content bundled by the
coding algorithm.
2) Any observation which is not statistically insignificant or
explained by known phenomena must be considered as an observable
information source with a decomposition algorithm as yet undetermined.
3) An observation for the astute may appear as statistically
insignificant random noise to the stupid.
4) Recursive heterogeneous processes are inherently more secure than
simpler ones.
5) Information taken out of shared context may seem to be gibberish.

Quotes :

"Think of it as evolution in action."

"Information alters consciousness."

Spam oh spam, wherefore art thou spam ? Handy links provoked by the
increasing volume of email which I am getting.

Report spam to :

I have saved every email which I ever received. Someday I may be in a
position to do something personally about those who think that I am
stupid enough to fall for their schemes.....

Instead of suggesting that I contact your secretary, or send you an
email, just send a certified check to :
3395 Harrell Rd. Arlington, TN 38002-4261 U.S.A.
If the check clears, then I will graciously thank you....
P.S. Sending me email written in a foreign language such as Chinese,
French, or Arabic is particularly stupid. Translate it yourself before
sending it...

If I lost interest and did not watch the entire movie, then it is not

Wikipedia more commonly (in these earlier years) has fewer details
given, so that I might not recall watching it from reading the
