Greek geometric or geometric Greek
by Sabyasachi Roy
If length in meters is multiplied
by breadth in meters then there is always a favourable probability that the
quotient would be in square meters. If, by any chance, you insert your feet in a
variable the answer is sure to be denoted in either square feet or square meter,
with a little space of conversion involved. But never in any circumstances it
would reveal itself as square feet meter or square meter feet. Please note; in
all these pretext, index thesis, antithesis, synthesis and synopsis what remains
unchanged is square. Embedded in rock. Ten Commandments. Charlton Heston.
Therefore, Charlton Heston is square. But that is a completely different
proposition. What really is important and should be promptly taken into account
is this that the human mind, in its evolutionary juggernaut, is unable to
decipher the paradox of dual existence.
The physicists are hereby
instructed to carry on spending grey cells like Amazon estuary on cat colonies.
