Did we really all know that? lol
Let me give you an idea of why the math theories end up going nowhere:
I disagree with your ninety degree tenet. I believe since the original Big Bang was a 3 dimensional phenomenon (minimum), then the first, primordial shape is a sphere. Therefore, the first measurement is 360*, not 90*.
You see, you are in the realm of interpretation. This is why, as someone stated above, there is no concensus in the mathematical applications. I can now go through the pyramid and pull out all the circular references (and occassionally use circular logic...lol) to make MY argument.
And you can't refute it, because I'm being selective in the rooms/dimensions/shapes I choose.
Don, you know I respect your mathematical abilities, but, as stated, you are finding math where math rightfully belongs... in a geometric shape... and you are attempting to be attach meaning to it.
I suggest you turn your genius toward carving diorite. Or finding a simple method for planing granite to a tolerance of .0002 inches. THESE are mysteries that need serious attention.
The math thing? In my opinion, it's a mental riddle... an exercise in "what other coincidences can we create if we play with enough numbers".
Or, as I like to say, it's my "Wizard of Oz theory".
You can give me any word... any concept... any thought, and in less than 5 associations, I can get to a salient point from the Wizard of Oz.
Go ahead... try me.
Tell you what... I'll use this topic, right now.
Let's take Pi.
Pi is the number derived by taking the circumference of a circle and dividing it by the diameter.
A circle is merely the sealed extension of a spiral.
The spiral was the original shape of the Yellow Brick Road when Dorothy began her journey from Munchkinland.
There. We've gone from Pi to Oz in three associations. Does that mean that the builders of the pyramid knew about Dorothy?
And Toto, too?
Nor the other way around, actually.
I'm not trying to be confrontational or offensive... just expressing my opinion of the math in the pyramid thing.
