From a chain of emails
The subject of the Rotation came up & one emailer wrote -
"Mathematically, a rotation is a rigid body movement which, unlike a translation, keeps a point fixed." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotation
And the reply came back -
Rotation, in the Maggie sense, is the semi-random orbital motion described by a constantly-changing number of suitors around a continuously-moving central point (aka, "Maggie"), interrupted by the occasional descent of one of the orbiting suitors to attend the central point on a temporary basis until drained and ejected back into the orbiting swarm to undergo rejuvenation/recuperation. Not unlike a cloth belt of 7.62mm in a Moebius strip configuration, passing sequentially from gun through reloading point and back.
Mmmmmm, I love it!
The two emailers may come out and identify themselves if they wish.
"Oh Canary, meet my mouth". Or so said the kitty.
ReplyDeleteNot me!
ReplyDeleteBut I smell the stench of an aviator...
"Ha", he said, in turn.
ReplyDeleteCheers
I dunno whom but THIS comes to mind.
ReplyDeleteSorry -- did I use too much polysyllabic terminology for the Bahston readership?
ReplyDeleteSorry, did you not understand that the words "Mmmm, I love it" connote approval?
ReplyDeleteWereKitty does not eat Canary.
ReplyDeleteWe will not discuss what she *does* eat though, since this ia a public forum.
