I have just returned from the monthly meeting of ASSA, the guest speaker was the man himself. Not what I expected, this bloke is a re-incarnated Prof Julius Sumner Miller(now there's a blast from the past). He is an amazing character, who I believe is in his 80's, amazing charisma, and spoke 100,000ft above the heads of most of us who were there I am sure. Very intelligent and great sense of humor, very little spoken about his invention, generally all about the physics of the universe and his ideas on the "big bang" theory.(basically he reckons it is crap), reading through the technicalities.
I am not sure how many people could be seated at the lecture theatre, but there was not a spare seat and quite a few were standing.
Very entertaining, but miles above my head, plenty of laughs and a lot of head scratching. He did give a very interesting account of a person he knows who he believes is re-incarnated, it was a fascinating story how this person became someone totally different when they slept and talked in their sleep. I could go on for a while about this, but it was very very eerie what he described.
