This week, I noticed

Greenmans signature

"Countdown to 20,000 has begun

"

It's actually a count up

you can't count down from below 20,000 to 20,000

Damn!

If I was the buyer of that painting, I will be hunting that artist down until the end of the earth!!

It was clever, and funny

Don't worry about the buyer, if you have 1,4 million to spend on a painting you won't feel the loss.

On second thought... this stunt probably made its worth go up instantly!

Legends can surely

I think he's been up all night again watching those boring rip-off adult TV stations again, he doesn't know whether he is coming or going

Arrrgghhh !!!

That got me thinking, I hate that

If we were to put you in space

does that mean your departure would happen sooner

time flows slower closer to a heavier object, or something

**Greenman** · October 7th, 2018, 03:51 PM

Yes but isn't there Einstein's theory of relativity that states that the faster you go the slower things move around you, or something like that? If time travel is possible how come no one has come back and told us what to expect one thing you CAN count on though come 20,000 posts I am off-not necessarily to space

Never was that good at physics or maths.

The faster you are moving relative to something, the slower you move thru time relative to the thing you are moving relative to. So objects in orbit around Earth "age" very slightly slower than things on Earth due to the relative motion.

"This is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end. But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning."

I have a way of kind of visualizing it if you want to hear it but I don't want to make your head implode.
