I've
been around a couple of decades...and over the years i have made
several observations on life which seem to me to be quite unique
....
1. We work very very hard for our living hoping that some day we never ever have to work very hard again.
2. Consider this: The
existence of human civilisation can be soley proven by the discovery of Flat
objects.
Nature does not produce flat things - there is no need for
flatness. Anything perfectly flat.. the floor, chair, Axe
head...this computer screen.. is the work of Man alone.
3. Can we produce bottled oxygen
for sale by the simple method of electroysis of water? (H2O).
Imagine carrying a contraption like a mineral water bottle with
batteries and mask, to polluted streets and yet still being able to
enjoy good air.
4. Why is coffee
or tea served with satchets of sugar when it is
so clear that probably 99.99% of consumers will want to put sugar
in their coffee or tea? Why isn't the sugar pre-mixed, like how
salt is premixed in your beef steaks, spaggethis and normal meals.
5. Why do airlines
still insist on life-jacket (basic water buoys) usage drills and
waste money on same, when it is obvious that if the aircraft dives
into the ocean even at low speed, it is bound to sink deep down
trapping everybody in it anyway (remember SilkAir case some years back)
6. Why do British designed power plugs contain 13 Amp fuse? It doesn't work! I
have touched live voltage (240 v) and experienced also
direct short circuit of plugs due to faulty
wiring. I know of a case of fire flash at the plug connecting to
an ordinary electric iron which short circuited. Always, the household
circuit breaker trips immediately. If this didnt happen, by
the time the fuse melts, i would have been killed anyway! In
Japan/Europe, they use small appliance plugs - no fuse. Changing
to simpler plugs may reduce the price of electrical appliances!!
7. Has any one
thought of a cheap and smart way to transmit the household Power and
Water consumption data from the meters, directly to a central office
(just like telephone usage metering)? Sending meter-readers to
millions of households and offices seems to be incongruous with
the technogies available in this internet age!
8. Scientists say that there is no extra terrestrial life in
other planets because there is no water or oxygen. I cannot
understand this. Life on earth
needs water and oxygen, but there is no reason to think that this is a
universal truth. Truth
is relative. We only think we know Truth because we measure
against our own realm and domain.
9. How
can i prove that my dog is the stupidest dog in the world? It sounds
like a silly question. I can't figure an objective way to measure
stupidity, although it is very simple to measure intelligence.
