Conversations Fludruviane

continues the story of our holiday imaginary:
last episode [info] lxxiii squeezed my nipples swollen
the princess while [info] Lucifer mast out of the room was real.






I was nervous: I do not like to fly, and I do not do very often.
But it was the fastest way to get from Cape to Cape Yhn Ehr,
where we had space flight to return home.

"Fasten your seatbelts, the plane is taking off."
I began to shake mine. He did not seem to work well, among others.
"Courage. According to your calculation of the probability the chances of
end up crushed by a safety belt should be little, no?"

"0.000000001%" confirmed the hostess with a smile, after reaching
our row in the usual round of inspection of the belts.
The first to speak was my neighbor, a gentleman Fludruviano
very distinct with a smooth and polished between violet and green,
depending on the area, and a rather elegant dress.

"You have the air of a space traveler.
too often because you do not see a 'human' the third here at the G Nebula.
A space traveler who has a fear of flying?"
"In fact it sounds strange, but I feel safer on a spaceship."
"Why? Your statistics show that the space and ground vehicles
are far more dangerous."

"Yeah, but there are campers. And even better, the cabin vessels.
If you can stop and about half live, then I feel safer than on a splinter
thrown from one side of the local atmosphere at a speed
best for interplanetary travel, and especially can not stop and
stay where it is, you know, just in case. "

" In fact I believe too 'I. "I said softly, and perhaps making a gesture
which is the equivalent of squeezing one eye (but it's hard to say when your interlocutor seems
a sewing machine in a suit and tie).
" I've always been curious primitive beliefs of your calls
probability and statistics. "

fludruviani not believe I knew that the case, and therefore reject these
sciences, but HOWEVER I blinked, a bit 'hit ...
"What?"
"Yes, you believe in chance, for example. That is to say that if I pull a
common six-sided die, each face has many chances of another
to be on the high side when the nut is stopped."
"And you instead?"
"Oh, we believe that only the face that has come out
probability of exit in a particular launch, and others do not. It 'because of Fah."

Fah, I learned it on 'I speak fludruviano' is not for fludruviani
a god, or personification. It 'a cosmic force. As we
entropy and gravity, so to speak.
or better. For science fludruviana all these forces
(and all those identified by physicists from other planets)
are summed up and are attributable to one.

All laws of thermodynamics, all the forces of kinetic energy, everything is back to a standard
/ elemental force: Fah.
why the word is not translatable.
"And now-resumed fludruviano, always quiet, slow, and a rather low tone of voice
- are making a voluntary act to save lives in the future?"
"What?"
"Yes, I see that you are tightening the belt.
stritolarvici Maybe you want, so this may affect future events."
"Please?"
"You've heard the hostess? We have the 0.000000001%
chance of being crushed by a seat belt. Which means that one person in a
100,000,000,000.

On this flight we are in the wind. Are we all crushed voluntarily prossile
2elevatoalla12 people that climb on a plane is safe. Or not? "
" Well, no, it's like pick a nut all over again. "
" Then, if time was infinite, the universe would likely
adjustment, but otherwise it will lead to irreparable damage.
If the end of the world it was necessary before things will be adjusted
(ie the actual number of people crushed by the seat belt has reached the
likely), the probability would prove false.

If by the end of time, the number is balanced to match, then
is like saying that a roll of the dice rolls influence all the following, and
that you can change the likelihood in the future. "
" Is not that we see it. "
" So let's put on this plane. A person sits down and fastens the belt
.

At that moment has one chance in 100,000,000,000
to be crushed by the seatbelt. It should be considered an unlikely event
far, at least bizarre.
How do you know if that one is about 100 billion instead of him? "
" Well, this he can not know, I suppose. "
" Indeed. Then your 'science' is not needed to know the future. "
" No, in fact, need to get an idea of the future ... "
" Oh, come on. The sciences study things, do not they get an idea of things.
Ever since you launched your antiques astragals, questioned spirits
Q'ryl poured cold on your face in the vain hope of knowing the future
.

This is no different, no less primitive. "
" Well, but many of the other sciences rely on probable and statistics. "
" And that makes you short-sighted and holds you back on the road of research.
E 'because of Fah, which is a crushed and the other not. "
At this point, if I had not studied that Fah is not a mystical force as a
Providence or Destiny, I thought that this gentleman
Fludruviano was a religious philosophy.

" I come now from a convention of universal basic physics.
I just set out the findings of the scientists of my planet,
our great past centuries, and I showed it to representatives of your civilization
like all physical laws, all the forces, fall in Fah.
know what they said? "

For a moment the serenity and calm appeared to have an inflection.
" What? "
" That the probabilities that we flundruviani we are right about this story is
of 1/100.000.000.000.000, so it is convenient to accept our theories.
Fludruvia you ever been on, our home world? "
" Never. "I said with a little guilt.
" Have you ever heard of thermodynamic miracles? "
" Meaning? "
" very physical Events unlikely but theoretically possible.
As an element that spontaneously transforms into another. "
" Well? "
" On Fludruvia happen every day. You see, because ... "
" FAH, I guess. "
" Yes, Fah and position on the axis of the planet ... "

But that conversation was interrupted because a passenger on the other side of the corridor was staying
crushed by his seat belt, and
was saved only by prompt action by the hostess. Shortly after we landed in Cape
Ehr.

Purtroppo mi sono girato troppo in fretta e non ho messo a fuoco.
