    A comment on Conversation: Strange questions that humans have not yet found an answer for!

    Aug 8 2012: Could someone please explain how the human consciousness works please.
    Also, while at it, what exactly does gravity consist of?

    Hmm, and has and will the universe be reborn?

    Oh, and why can't anything go faster than light?

    Finally, the most puzzling one to me...
    Why don't we humans do something about climate change now that we know we're causing it and the effects will be much worse than the effort to do something about it?

    A comment on Talk: Richard Wilkinson: How economic inequality harms societies

    Oct 26 2011: Great lecture with a lot of data behind it.
    Being from Sweden and having lived in the US for a few years I can't help but agree with the overall conclusions.
    That's not to say Scandinavia can't continue to improve.
    Also, the US has some great positive values worth spreading throughout the world.
    The note about the American dream was funny though.
    Hard to argue against that data although it's natural that it's easier to climb socially if the differences are smaller.

    A comment on Talk: Lee Cronin: Making matter come alive

    Sep 13 2011: Talking about probabilities for life is funny.

    We don't know how many tries the universe has had to create life.

    Assuming the universe had unlimited tries, then suddenly what would be improbable with one try becomes very probable with unlimited tries.
