Conversations with the Josh Machine
AC: ***farts***
Nikhil: Boy! you sure have a lot of gas stuffed in your intestines.. :P
AC: And you have too little. that's why the exchange is taking place. :))
Nikhil: Hehe.
Nikhil: Exchange? There was no exchange there. It was mere transfer. :))
AC: I fart. Gas gets diffused. Apply inverse square law. And so much amount enters your respiratory system.
Nikhil: Thru the internet. Online diffusion. Nice concept. But I'll let it pass. :D
AC: Who's talking online diffusion? I'm talking 'bout distance from here to your place. Thus you have accurate numbers.
Nikhil: Won't work.
AC: Why not?
Nikhil: It's just a probability of those molecules entering my system. It won't really travel till here, not until a looong time later.
AC: Prove it. Chances are you can't prove it. ;)
Nikhil: The odds are that it will enter my system only when I get there. But then, it still is a far possibility. And by that time, it won't be smelly anyway. :)
AC: Chances are that the farts I have farted for the past 5-6 years would have ALREADY entered your system. =))
Nikhil: Yes. chances. Everything is only chance. :D
AC: Probability is very high.
Nikhil: Absolutely wrong. Because the molecules don't travel laterally towards my location, there is a high probability of people around you having inhaled those things.
AC: What if that's only partly true? What if they travel through higher dimensions? Then they can reach you in a fraction of a second. Heh!
Nikhil: Yes...that's only "WHAT IF".
AC: Maybe it's already happening.
Nikhil: Maybe, what if, etc - English language equivalent for mathematical term. Probability. :D
AC: Agreed.
Nikhil: You have no other choice. :)
AC: The crux of the matter is, no matter what, the probability is NEVER zero.
Nikhil: Yep. That's also agreed. And I will spare you from saying it - "I have no other choice."
AC: Result: My fart exists in your body, no matter what the concentration, no matter how minuscule a quantity.
AC: Thus proved. :))
Nikhil: Still not proved. Just probabalized.
AC: Proved. Because the probability will never be zero, just infinitesimally small.
AC: Ever heard of Poincaré cycles?
Nikhil: Nope. Enlighten me.
AC: A Poincaré cycle is basically a probability cycle, and it says that the probability of an event happening is never zero. It's just infinitesimally small. If you wait long enough, probability of an event happening becomes one and thus the desired event occurs.
Nikhil: well, so when you are talking about molecules and and stuff, what happens if the probability is so small that it constitutes something less that one molecule?
AC: Your question is incorrect. For one molecule, it is infinitesimally small.
Nikhil: Ok.
AC: But dude we are talking about 10^24 molecules. So probability increases dramatically.
Nikhil: But then, we also have to account for distance - 9000 miles (x 1.6 KM) and then for the movement of molecules.
AC: Exactly my point. Inverse square law. Diffusion and all accounted for.
AC: Hyok, we ARE jobless.
Nikhil: No. It is a mark of genius to eke out a brainy convo out of a seemingly mindless subject about farts.
AC: We are geniuses then. Just that the world doesn't recognize us.
Nikhil: B-)
Nikhil: So congratulations. Both of us are genii.
AC: I wonder if i can actually publish a paper on this.
Nikhil: Dude! That'd be super!! It will be a fucking rage.
AC: This OUGHT to go up on your blog. I was thinking in terms of my blog but since you're having writer's block... :-)
Nikhil: My blog. Hmm yeah. But too long a convo. Let me edit some stuff out and try.
Nikhil: Boy! you sure have a lot of gas stuffed in your intestines.. :P

But I ended up posting this. Peace be with all you confused souls.

it was a nice piece of conversation.
Come as you are.
Dear God. Three days of this??
heh. :D
All great conversations start with a fart.
In fact, I think Socrates began many of his debates with a falafel ripper.
just really, never ever ever get on beeblebrox's improbability drive ship okay?
really. i alwez knew only men cud have conversation of dat kind. and we still fall for u men. i dont understand us either. maths was always simpler
Mmmmphoooosh....
That, my friend, was a blog-fart.
Yeah, I can be artsy-fartsy too.
:-)
Poor fart, it would think twice before announcing its arrival!!
What with it being mercilessly dissected by two men! phew!
And thus, this paper has been published. Lets, now, wait for it to become the rage we were hoping for it to become.
How many of the above blogger peoples do you think read the WHOLE convo? :D
Should have posted the comment there.
And I, alas, read the whole convo. Meh.
Rave reviews I say!!
@Mathieu: Thank you. :)
@Tangled: Your blog system is highly complicated. And good you read the entire thing. You've had a 2 hour preview. Now you'll have 3 days. I want to break free. ***Evil Grin***
@Nonedone: Falafel Ripper... ROTFL!! FOTCL!!!
@Sita: Hah. Bike trip is better. :P
@Reema: :D
@Wabby : 28 hours and so and so minutes and so and so seconds to go. You know the drill. Artsy-fartsy... Er...
@Methi : It's been laid to rest. :D
@Nikhil : Dunno how many would've read. But it seems to be a rage. :D
i read the whole damn post and me understandin men or the advanced physics concepts is infinitesimally small. but keep writin stuff like this the i mite prove to be the proof of one of the theories discussed!!!
some % of the dust particles are human skin, dude ure contributing to pollution as well..
rock on!!!
Your theory is defunct...
The usage of Poincaré cycles is assumed in a ideal situation and hence a probable improbablity. And since most of ur gas is a processed version of someone elses gas you cant actually identify where your gas homes it self...
High probability of it being absorbed by urself using the Poincaré cycles is extremely probable when the gas is still warm...
good effort...
Hilarious though... Crapper thus crapped with unleashed fury...
B-)
Are you a batman fan?
You should start a psycho blog.
Arcane Asylum.
patience.
Science boy creates waves with flatulence.
Go away!
Leave us math-haters and science-studying-abhorers alone!
First Arjun, then you!
@Nonedone: Hmmm... Thoughtworthy.
@Tangled: Yeah??
@Malaveeka: You're good at calculus? ;)
