But it is not an intentional joke.

I see I'm going to have to give a lecture-sized post here. Ouch.

Building "mnemonic circuits with stone knives and bearskins" is easy compared to explaining a Steven Weinberg-esque view of quantized fields and their usage, in this instance, in the brain's method of storing and retrieving thoughts or data.

If one has been taught mathematics or engineering one has a physical outlook on science. Empirical equations and Newtonian principles are enough to work with. Intangibles are excluded from the process.

A biologist can look at the brain cells and see synaptic centers, neurons and realize that impulses within these cells are somehow responsible for our thoughts, actions and all these signals from other parts of the body find their home here.

Yet neither the biologist or the engineer can explain how a brain cell stores thought, how thought works or how thoughts are recalled. The science behind the brain's workings progresses painfully slowly next to other fields of research.

When I speak of waves, frequencies and harmonics I am speaking of such as they exist in the quantized fields generated by neurons' atomic structures. Not some nebulous, new age catch phrase. These waves and frequencies are quite precise and were generated when the nervous system first sent the impulse to the brain.

Let's have an example:

A child is four. She is going to have her first taste of orange juice. The various taste buds and all the other nerves from the throat, mouth, stomach, etcetera all send signals to her brain as she drinks this orange juice. The "taste" is really a set of cell-generated nerve signals and the impulses they generate when they encounter orange juice! These signals travel along the nervous system, up the cortex and into the brain where they are recorded. The brain cell is tissue. It cannot embed such nerve signal data in the tissue itself. A cell nucleus, membrane, etcetera has no place to store these million+ wave forms sent from the complex nerve signal data. However, parts of the brain and its various cells simulataneously resonate with these frequencies and the harmonic (there's that word again) which is created by the sum of these nerve signals equals "drinking orange juice." It is amazingly precise. This harmonic is then resonating as a quantized signal in a field around the neuron, and when the neuron resonates in the same manner (matching frequencies) the data stored in the neuron's quantized field is tapped - just like we tap the data off of a tv signal.

When the brain cells are tapped during surgery, different images are formed or sensations felt by the person being operated on. This is because tapping these cells generates a certain resonance and resonance is how this data is conveyed.

Word recognition, learning letters, spelling and grammar are all done in much the same manner. The retina and its rods and cones imparts signals to the brain. Shapes are thus identified and recorded as visual patterns and the visual patterns are again, nerve signal configurations which are sent to the brain.

Now when one re-reads my earlier post, one will have some context wherein to place these words and more closely follow the train of thought

S=1hz D=4hz A=7hz I=3hz therefore SDAI=15hz SADI=15hz IDAS=15hz

However, there is another layer of nerve data that tells one 1473 is the correct sequential pattern and SDAI is the correct sequence one is looking for.

Get it? Each letter is assigned a nerve frequency and each word is also assigned a frequency. Dyslexics have problems accessing the other layer of data. That could be due to neurological damage, a hit on the head, drug-use, whatever.

The brain's cells are resonance based structures. Nerve cells function to convey signals via resonance. All data therefore must be stored in a manner which can be readily and accurately recalled via countless googols of wave/nerve signal combinations.

Ears and sound, eyes and light, skin and touch, the nose and smell all generate wave based data each with unique frequencies, harmonics, etcetera.

I know. It's overwhelming and appears like gobbledy-gook until one learns it. If you say to someone in Iraq that a "Flowing liberty comes before a Coronet cent" they will look at you funny, with utterly no comprehension of what you have said or its relevance. As a matter of fact, say that to many folks here in the USA and they will still have little understanding, though perhaps a hint that it references old coins.

I'm in much the same boat when I speak of waves, harmonics, frequencies and quantized data. It's jargon that means something to a very few small number of specialists who have imbibed the definitions (especially in this context) into their lexicon.

It's hard to be precise. It's harder still to put my various references in proper context in each post I make. Whoever fully reads this post will know closer to what I mean the next time I say wave or frequency - but the rest, such as RL perhaps, will still think its a word I pulled out of the air cause it "sounds sciencey" or scientific.

We're all traveling with different data payloads in these neuron-based quantized fields and communication is always based upon similarities - not disparities. Disparities alienate while similarities befriend.

There's enough meat in this post to chew on for months. One would be hard pressed to find a more plausible, easily understood and precise definition of brain function--even if you work in the field of (TMS) transcranial magnetic stumulation. What's more, anyone who extrapolates further on this line of brain function will be capable of inventing new devices, teaching devices, games and what-have-you.

Just remember to donate a portion of the royalties to some worthy cause.
