Comments on: Recession is so deep, even Pi is suffering – Pi almost down to e http://talklikeaphysicist.com/2009/recession-is-so-deep-even-pi-is-suffering-pi-almost-down-to-e/ Talk Like A Physicist Day : March 14, 2011 Wed, 05 Oct 2011 20:51:18 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: Patrick Lockerby http://talklikeaphysicist.com/2009/recession-is-so-deep-even-pi-is-suffering-pi-almost-down-to-e/comment-page-1/#comment-4857 Patrick Lockerby Sun, 05 Apr 2009 21:03:30 +0000 http://talklikeaphysicist.com/2009/recession-is-so-deep-even-pi-is-suffering-pi-almost-down-to-e/#comment-4857 I am deeply concerned that in these times of global recession our units of force, the global currencies of physics, have taken a nose-dive. Most disturbing is the sharp decline in the value of g. In a recent experiment a Foucault pendulum, perturbed by the alignment of planets at midnight on 31-March-2009, flipped from precession to recession for over 12 hours. I find it particularly disturbing that our politicians are doing nothing about this universal problem. They just don't seem to understand the gravity of the situation.

Shocking! I was measuring the drop off of the intensity of radiation, and it fell off with a r^(-1.33333) dependency, as opposed to the usual r^-2. Shocking!

That, or the internet is slow because of a massive increase in the number of unemployed Twitterers with too much time on their hands.
