It's almost like one stop shopping, except you can get
all the podcasts in one place for free. There's no
shopping involved. Arrow dot net a r r Oe dot net.
I like asking questions. The reason why is because the
fund begins when you start researching for answers such as
what keeps the leaning Tower of Pisa from tipping over?
(00:22):
Plus what's more dangerous the wild wild West or today's
modern streets. My name is Erro. I'm a daily writer,
a silent wolf. I stand on the sidelines and do
nothing but watch, listen, study, then activate. I happen to
call it the daily Mess, a chronological walk through an
everyday world. Yeah, it's my morning pages. As a receiver
(00:44):
of thoughts and ideas, we as people tend to throw
things to the side because we all think we're going
to deal with it sometime in the future. Yeah, let
me know when you get to it. Okay, when a
subject arrives inside of me, I know it's time to
dig in. It's still keeping that daily journal, but by
doing the research, the picture becomes clearer. This is the
(01:04):
daily mess. What keeps the Leaning Tower of Pisa standing up?
How can it still be in a position that most
humans would have corrected or fallen face first into the
soil below. Now science credits two factors here. The Leaning
Tower of PISA's center of gravity remains within its base,
a long and delayed construction period that allowed the soil
(01:27):
to physically stabilize thanks to engineers in the nineteen nineties
and early part of the two thousands, science stabilized the
tower by carefully removing the soil from the north side
of the foundation and get this, replaced it with lead counterweights.
Not only did it correct the tilts, but did so
by about forty five centimeters. The construction of the Leaning
(01:50):
Tower Pisa actually took one hundred and ninety nine years
eleven seventy four to thirteen seventy two. Now, if you're
one who's heard of steel cables being used to say, stabilize
the tower today, you are absolutely right. Without those cables
the process would have been interrupted. But now it's looking
at three hundred years of protection. So why hasn't it
(02:12):
been completely fixed? Then? Well, research in science shows it
could cause unheard of damage to other areas involved. Hey,
coming up next, what's more dangerous the wild wild American
West or what's going on on our streets today. Hey,
(02:35):
thanks for coming back to the daily mess. What's more
dangerous the wild wild American West of the seventeen and
eighteen hundreds or where we presently stand today. Now, before
we hit the history books, here first, anyone anywhere in
the world, if you aren't familiar with the American wild
wild West, it's looked upon as being a time in
(02:56):
history that was one hundred percent lawless. Therefore, those making
the comparison say that the physical actions on today's streets
really cannot be connected to the road maps of the
eighteen hundreds. It doesn't outperform the good guys and the
bad guys of those horse riding history days. There were
(03:16):
once frontier towns whose homicide rates is actually higher than
some modern day dangerous cities today. The images we have
of the American Wild West are absolutely one hundred percent wrong.
They've been generated by Hollywood. Now, what made the gunfighted
Ok Corral infamous was how rare it really was. It
(03:38):
was the wild West days. But here's the thing. It
was rare to see what took place at Ok Corral.
Now here's another thing we need to think about. How
dangerous was it when it came to the conditions medical
care ooh, almost impossible. A person in modern times is
much safer from not only violence, but impared to the
(04:00):
nineteenth century, our medicine is keeping you alive. Today is
looked upon as being much better than worse than the wild,
wild American West, him Merril. And that's the daily mess.
