This is the unknown which is being discussed by the scientists which support this theory. And, it's not just the scientists. If you listen to the audio in the link I provided in my second post in this thread, one of the primary people who started this discussion back in the early '90's was a structural engineer. I'm not an academic, I'm a layman in the field research of animals and their environments. But I somehow felt that dinos in today's gravity, just didn't make sense. A lot of questions come to mind based on some of what we already accept (yet sometimes still challenge): 1. If the entire universe is expanding, why would our solar system itself be static and not part of this expansion? 2. If heat expands, why would the earth not expand if it had a molten core, even though it's surface has cooled over time? 3. If the sun is itself expanding, could it be possible that our planet is gradually moving away from the sun as an adjustment and/or part of the expansion? 4. If our moon is moving slightly away from the earth at a constant rate. Isn't this a possible adjustment relative to the earth's expansion? I do see a conflict if you accept the Big Bang Theory, but see our solar system as static within it's bounds.

Hahahahaha...hahaha...hehehe...Good thing I wasn't drinking coffee when I watched this. In all probability, I would have experienced a nasal deployment of such magnitude, it would have covered my monitor and shorted out my keyboard. That's awesome! I have seen the video about arachnids on LSD. But this take on it is great. Question? Re: The spiders on marijuana, how did they deal with the munchies while laying in their sticky hammocks? Good one, Barn.

Earth's gravity is relative to it's mass. In studying dinos and speculating that gravity must have been less at the time of their existence, there needs to be an explanation that something has changed from the past to present time. The Expanding Earth Theory, gives gives us one possible explanation for the earth's increase in mass over time. This gradual increase in mass would affect the weight of the animals living on the earth over time. So, the answer to your original question: The change in gravity is tied to the Expanding Earth Theory. The ongoing question: Is this theory correct and how can it be proven?

Late in my greeting, as I only just joined. A similar path brought me here as well. Welcome.

I find myself having a sudden urge to explore Quantum Entanglement in regards to this topic.

Here's another one of my reference sites: http://www.dinox.org/index.html

You will be missed.

The possible answer to this question lies within this thread. Start with the title of this thread, read all data and arguments carefully. It's a fascinating journey which I will not deprive you of by answering this question directly. Wink.

Re: Insuring the driver instead of the car. I should have clarified. This is about the required liability end of things and not car replacement or repair. Let's say you have five cars. You are required by law to have liability insurance. The car doesn't go out and injure other people all by itself. So, why are we required to buy insurance for each car instead of the driver/owner of the cars? If that's the case, and they aren't tied into Big Pharma, why will they not cover Cold Laser treatments for pain relief instead of prescribing drugs which only manage the disease? I have a little personal experience with this. My best friend is a Naturopathic MD and uses a PhaseIV Cold Laser to treat pain and help tissue healing. This thing is amazing and she used it on my carpel tunnel. It took my hands from burning so bad at night I couldn't sleep and had to get up iceing my hands all night, down to the numb stage in one treatment. After three treatments, there was enough healing that I was able to use my hands again. I use my hands a lot as an artist and gardener, so this was a big deal for me. Now, I was a skeptic on some of this alternative treatment jazz. But, the relief of my pain and regaining the use of my hands has convinced me otherwise. ETA: Have you ever watched the documentary "Forks Over Knives"? I highly recommend it.

Okay, I posted this personal observation before watching the video. Interesting that you used Italians as an example. Mafia protection money, anyone? Racketeering comes to mind again when you mention not having enough choices when buying insurance across state lines. Even if you could, there can still be price fixing between the companies so that there isn't a way to get a better deal, just the lesser of two evils, so to speak. A lot of this comes down to making money. Insurance companies are in the business of making money, not helping people. The game is rigged so that you have to pay more any time they can rig it. An example would be that cars don't drive themselves, so why do you have to pay to insure the cars instead of the person driving them? More money for the insurance companies. Health insurance is tied into the Big Pharma, the medical profession, hospitals, staff, and medical equipment overhead. There's no money in healthy or dead people. The money is in managed care. It's one reason doctors don't instruct their patients on nutrition. It's one reason insurance companies don't cover naturopathic alternatives such as Phase 4 Cold Laser treatments for pain and healing instead of pain meds or salt room treatments to improve lung health. It's all about money. It's a racket.

Oh, at least ten years. I did find Ramin Mardfar's old discussion group on Yahoo. I was member DinoGiger3000. Don't remember my password and it may not even be active anymore. There were only 30 members total in 2015 and less when I was a member around 2008. When I joined I remember posting that I had first wondered about a lesser gravity at the time of the large dinosaurs for five years. So, some of my first thoughts on this could go as far back as 15 years. Again, this only came to mind because I study animals and how they move. Nature is thrifty, and dinos in today's gravity just didn't add up. Strictly a gut feeling.

Thanks for pointing this guy out to me. I watched a little of one of his clips regarding women. Rang a few bells. This is another of my favorite areas of research. I've been currently following some of the "Aspien Women" writings and list of traits as I study my own brain and behavior. I do tick a lot of boxes here also. Looking forward to watching his clips and will let you know what I think.

These days, it strikes me more like racketeering.

A more oxygen rich atmosphere has been explored and is currently accepted as an explanation for the large growth of insects. I remember there were some lab studies done that did show certain insects could be grown slightly larger in a more oxygen rich environment. However, I see gravity as a force which shapes, whereas oxygen is a sustaining element of the organism. We also need to compare and understand the differences between animals with exoskeletons and vertebrates. Could help explain why the largest skeletons of air born birds have all been found in South America. I'll do some digging regarding the pterosaurs. (Note to self: Move to to Northern Chile instead of going on Paleo Diet. Brilliant.) Some additional discussion on this is waiting in The Fuschia Zone... It's been awhile since I've looked into this stuff. Here's a site I don't remember seeing before: http://www.dinosaurtheory.com/big_dinosaur.html (Barn, I will get to opening a thread re: canine vs human communications. Didn't forget.)

Something I've been wondering about for over ten years. https://www.bitchute.com/video/P38FtnSf9CXx/ In my study of animals, something bothered me when watching a documentary on dinosaurs. Their size just didn't seem possible relative to the earth's present day gravity. Animals are shaped to fit into their environments. Something didn't set right with me. But how could we explain how gravity may have increased since the time of these giants and what was the evidence? My comments are on the BitChute page. Any thoughts?

It looks like YT put a bunch of uncontrollable children (SPLC) in control of censoring content and freezing accounts. Then said that their new moderators "stumbled" out of the gate as an excuse for the censoring and freezing. Stumbled my ass. They got sloppy in their zeal and got caught. They've been exposed and the world is watching. I also found I could not share content from certain sites and am concerned that entire libraries are being considered as property of YT instead of their creators, and will be erased. Historic stuff going down. I'm keeping an eye on it.

I have been to this place. Not only abused within my home, but not heard or protected from the abuse and bullying happening in the neighborhood and at school. As a child of around five or six, I would wander the neighborhood, not wanting to go home because I knew what was waiting for me. Coming in the door, my mother would make me confess everything I had been doing. If she didn't hit me for something I'd done, she would hit me for messing my pants because I would hold it until I couldn't any more, just to keep from going home. While she was hitting me, she would tell me I "made her do it". And this is only an account of my early years. I know what it feels like to be a husk. Not caring if you live or die. There is a term in the study of behaviorism which is called "Learned Helplessness". It's when an animal cannot escape a random electric shock no matter what they do, and they finally give up trying. Fortunately, because we are humans, we do have the ability to heal. I'm glad to hear this. You are showing a wisdom here that I wish I'd had at your age. Our initial feeling of worth comes from those who raise us. And I will tell you this, you were raised by cruel and toxic people. You were treated like you were worthless. You were treated like the family chew-toy. Listen to me well right now. You are not worthless. You did nothing to deserve this treatment. If you had been born into a healthy family, you would not be going through this. You were raised within a toxic family dynamic in which any child would have been damaged. This is not your fault and you are not worthless. Jeremy, My parents brought me to the brink of suicide twice. But like you, I realized I did not want to die. I decided I would not let them drive me to destroy myself by my own hand. I know exactly how you feel and please hold on to the thought of surviving in order to help others like us. I don't know Stefan personally, but I know he has also walked a similar path. Please find a therapist who specializes in helping people recover from Narcissistic Family Abuse. There's a discussion forum on the internet called "Out Of The Fog". It is a support forum for people like us. Get over there and just start reading everything they have to offer. You can also join if you need to talk to other survivors. I am member TalenCrowhaven. If you join, you can PM me. I am not a therapist or a psychiatrist, and there are no therapists or psychiatrists on the site. Hang in there. You are no longer alone. Digger

Barn's quote: "Quite right, I missed that. See, it happens when my 'Twilight hat' slips... lemme fix that and cross back over to The Twil... Brings to mind the Tin Foil Hat conundrum...shiny side in or out? (Still learning how to use the quote feature on this platform.)

Hey Barn, Something happened a couple of days ago in my introduction thread while we were having a conversation. The day before said conversation I had an impulse to look up an old poem I wrote entitled "Pretending To Be Human". During our conversation you used the phrase "pretending to be humans". Now, I don't recall hearing or reading anyone else use that particular phrase before. During our conversation and over the course of a few days, we were also making a lot of Twilight Zone references. Not attributing any of this to any kind of religious experience. But, I did find this very interesting. Is puzzlement...

Inserted Twilight Zone music and your use of the words "pretending to be humans" and my looking for the poem "Pretending To Be Human" just yesterday.

This isn't about abstract thinking on the dog's part. It's about how we are read by them and how it may conflict with what we think we are saying. Also, this is not about anthropomorphizing. It's actually quite the opposite. I think we're gonna need a bigger boat. I'll open a topic elsewhere so it doesn't get lost in the introduction thread.
