I like Colin's posts. They liven-up these science newsgroups with
pictures.

I had read Colin's post last night around 23:00 local time. When I
reached home and made a last visit to the bathroom just before going to
bed, a brilliant idea which may pan-out occurred to me. It was so neat
that I jotted down the time, 23:39 local time. The process of
scientific discovery.

Within the past year I had posted to the Internet that it sure would be
nice to have a formula that would tell you exactly how many isotopes
each of the elements had. The reason it would be nice was because I am
working on naming all the elements and isotopes for all time sake. I
will post that list sometime in 1995, soon, because I am almost
finished with the superconductivity patent that has absorbed my
attention for this year 1994.

I had posted in a thread sometime in 1994 that a formula, or working
idea, or model should be available to tell us exactly how many
isotopes, say of uranium existed, could exist, and no more. I could not
think of a scheme to attack that problem and just stored it in the back
of my mind. As so much of the creative science process works this way.
I want to reveal some of its detail.

I wanted a formula or idea which talks about how many isotopes of each
element can exist. I could not think of a method of attack and so I
just filed it away in storage in the back of my mind. Hoping that I
would encounter something which would call forth that desire and help
push it into a possible means of attack.

Anyway, getting back to the bathroom scene. I was thinking of a reply
to Colin's post. And it occurred to me that I had remembered a circular
periodic chart of the elements. I had remembered seeing it in this
book, I believe.
Title:  Van Nostrand's scientific encyclopedia / Douglas M. Considine,
editor ; Glenn D. Considine, managing editor. 7th ed.
Imprint:  New York : Van Nostrand Reinhold, c1989.

And so in the bathroom, I thought, Gee, it would be nice if Colin had
done a circular periodic chart and how much more difficult that is to
do.

Then, at local time 23:39, just like a bolt out of the blue, (in the
brain locus theory of the mind it would be photons shot through my
brain locus giving me the idea, shot from the Protons in the Nucleus of
231PU our Maker) I recalled the desire to have a formula which tells
exactly what isotopes are possible and this circular periodic chart of
the elements. And this is what I mean by letting key ideas rest or go
dormant and in a better time the answer springs forth smoothly, and
unforced.

I connected the two ideas. And this may be the avenue of attack on the
correct theory of the relative abundance of elements and isotopes. That
would be a very important discovery in science for it would be a so to
speak miniature theory of everything. We already have a Theory of
Everything which is the PLUTONIUM ATOM TOTALITY, or PLUTONIUM ATOM
WHOLE.

Consider this for a Theory of the Abundance of Elements and Isotopes.
It would predict what isotopes are possible to exist and no more. And
it would predict the abundance of the elements in the universe at
large.

Consider a logarithmic spiral and making the periodic chart of elements
in the shape of the logarithmic spiral.
Remember that pi and e are exactly 22 subshells inside of 7 shells and
19 occupied subshells inside of 7 shells, respectively, of 231PU--
collapsed wavefunction.

Now then, consider the specialness of the number e. It is indispensable
in radioactivity formulas. If we do a logarithmic spiral of the
periodic chart of elements, this is the first step in a line of attack
to get a Theory of the Abundance of Elements and Isotopes. A
logarithmic spiral is equiangular, and arguably it is the most perfect
geometric object in all of creation.

It is my intuition, that if we can put the periodic chart of elements
with ISOTOPES into a logarithmic spiral, the spiral itself will tell
and predict relative abundance of each element, each isotope, and tell
what isotopes can exist. It is my hunch that the logarithmic spiral is
the math geometrical embodiment of the chart of isotopes and elements.
