I did a cool survey last week with my age-groupers; I asked them all to tell me what they thought about when they swim in practice, and what they think about when they swim in a meet. I got answers ranging from boyfriends/girlfriends, homework, and music.
So, I'm curious....what do all of you think about when you swim?

Mathematics - Especially prime numbers and how they relate to whatever distance/time I am currently at in the workout. Weird, but true.
The booklet I'm writing.
Cosmology - a hobby of mine. Yesterday was "puzzling over gravity" day.
I spend a good amount of time thinking about these subjects also. You know, I read a couple books that really altered my perception(s), and this has made me wonder even more about subjects like gravity. "Strange Matters", and "Non-Zero" these are two books that really make me think.
In "Strange Matters" it is a very complex book, and it looks at all the "strange" things in science. You can look at the title a few ways, like, 'strange does matter', or, 'these matters are strange', or, 'matter has a strange composition in reality'.
Either way, it's all about perception and interpretation of the data. This book points out some of the strange nuances of science and asks some pretty good questions.
There are two in particular that I'd like to discuss. One is gravity, and the other is the background "noise" that science has to "cancel out" in order for their equations to work properly.
As far as gravity, it seems we really don't know why there is a constant "force" holding us to the ground. There are many theories, but none of them properly explains the complete spectrum of information.
I have a theory about this. Does it not make reasonable sense that the speed of the earth flying through space could be the cause. Anything that large, moving that fast, would cause smaller objects to get sucked into the electromagnetic vortex, and we experience gravity.
Also, the "noise" that scientists cancel out. Isn't that the frequency of the sub-atomic "field" emanating from the energetic side of the equation? Which is why it permeates everything, everywhere. Is there a better way to tune into this "noise"?
