Yesterday's dinner consisted of a roasted chicken drumstick and baked pizza stub. The meal was paired off with a Chardonnay 2006 from Jacob's Creek.This winery is a pretty well established brand and is located in Barossa Valley, Melbourne. Aside from the trademark cream of Chardonnay it's really sweet and has a bit of melon, color is light pine with a slight tinge of green. Low acidity and tannin on this wine , aftertaste is weakly lingering. Went well with my chicken drumstick. For 8 AUD no complains but I've had better chardonnays. It only gets a 6.3/10 from me. Was looking for the Old Bastard brand but didn't manage to find it so I settled for the chardonnay. The next grape I will hop to will be Riesling, my personal favourite.
Did some reading on my quality management subject, got a bit bored and started surfing. Did a google on Tesla. How many of you have heard of him?Tes who you ask? Nikola Tesla, contemporary of Edison and Einstein; is one of the greatest contributors to modern science. Unfortunately he was kinda weird and pissed off JP Morgan who financed his experiments. Eventually he died poor and forgotten. Sad... Heaven makes sport of men. Especially those with exceptional talent. If it weren't for this guy there would be no A/C power, radio and a host of other engineering contraptions. Tesla fits exactly in the mold of the mad scientist, but he was a humanitarian with a hatred for war. He envisioned free power for all which was the reason why the businessmen stopped financing him.
Tesla had some interesting concepts on electromagnetic waves and he believes that FTL(Faster than light) is possible. He puts forward that scalar waves travel at 1.5c. I have similar sentiments that FTL is definitely possible. Although I think the Theory of Relativity is a beautiful explanation, it has also limited us severely in terms of scientific progress. Recent years have seen only a few leaps in terms of theoretical physics and it seems that relativity has this dampening effect. The fact remains that there are unexplained UFO cases that seem to violate our known physics and Tesla's explanation seems a plausible platform to expound on the possibilities of these gravity defying flight patterns of the UFOs. Logically if UFOs exist and are unexplained then there are 2 possibilities: 1)they are of alien origin 2)they are man made. If they are of alien origin some form of FTL is very likely possible. Secondly if they are man made, there has already been a breakthrough in gravity manipulation or some form of advanced field propulsion.
It will be a cosmic joke if we are the only sentient lifeform out of the 200 billion stars in Milky Way. Given that we believe evolution spawned humans through chance and natural selection, it works out too in terms of probability that aliens are really not that far fetched. Interesting thought isn't it? Perhaps one day we can live life amongst the stars sipping a Chardonnay 2006 with an alien friend.
