When ignorance is brilliance

Better get another cup of coffee.  And brew another pot.

This essay will cover philosophy such as a finite mathematician poorly comprehends and relates.  I spent all day yesterday firing up Cycletimer to work diligently market mathematics.  But I spent last night, when I should have been sleeping, considering my most recent row with the "noxious one."  For those looking for the mathematic secret, its not here.

Only infrequently over the last several months have I felt my time was wasted in studying any aspect of WD Gann's "The Tunnel Thru the Air" or other mysteries surrounding his life.  Everything seems to have a meaning that might not present itself immediately but ultimately does.  Perhaps you'd say that a person that detects meaning in a number is down the path of the '23 enigma' and sees in everything that which he wants to see.  I understand that and routinely examine myself in that regard.  Not that withstanding, what might  be the 'purpose' of the 'noxious one' presuming his importance in my work?  I do fathom meaning in his involvement if for only that it requires that I summarize and examine my findings.  And maybe more.

How'd I first encounter the noxious one?  He first astounded me with his ignorance when he emailed me in private to tell me that the curiously miss-enumerated Chapter XXXIX "Robert Gordon's 7 Days" was irrelevant because he had read it and there weren't any dollars in it.  Mr. Gann tells us, point blank, in the Foreword that if you understand RG's 7 days, you will understand why Jesus rose on the third day and rested (minor distinction, God rested) after 6 days, you will have overcome death and you will have gained understanding.  Goodness, there aren't any dollar signs in Chapter XXXIX?  Here's the excerpt from the Foreword:


How do you exceed that level of 'insightlessness'?

Well, he did.  I find six consecutive lines ending in the letter 'e' in the first paragraph of the Foreword.  In a finite population of 15340 lines that's 15340 letters; its a very simple problem in joint probability.  The probability of 6 consecutive lines would be 1 divided by 26 to the 6th power because there are 26 letters in the alphabet and 6 consecutive positions to be filled by a letter (actually, its less because 'e' is a very popular letter to end a word).  However you configure it, the statistical probability is between say 1 in 150 million and 1 in 300 million.  The noxious one again displays both his ignorance and his greater hubris when he said you can spell anything you want with 15340 letters.

So what purpose do I find in the noxious one's stalking me with his blissful void of knowledge, and his perceived self importance (hmmm, some self reflection on my part perhaps in order)?

The purpose...  The first two encounters were the noxious one confronting and doubting two contrivances of a man.  First, Mr. Gann created the incredible geometry of time and space exhibited in 'Robert Gordon's 7 days' and as relayed in my many essays on the subject.  RG traveled to 22 places, destroying buildings of the enemies of the U.S. and rewarding allies.  He traveled 33K miles as the crow flies but  traveled 18K miles east/west and 18K miles north/south.  Interesting, east/west representing time and north/south representing space.  If considered a triangle, you have two equal sides in the 33k, 18k, 18k sides; an isosceles triangle.  There is meaning there, but that's not the point.  The point is it is contrivance of a man...not an accident....not a miracle.  [Alas, no dollar signs.]

Here's an early edition of my "RGs 7 days" spreadsheet that you'll find developed in other essays:


A second encounter; the "six e's" as discussed above.  Again, a contrivance of a man, WD Gann.  Not a miracle.  Some asked me, "...is Mr. Gann's acrostic telestic encoding of TTTTA like the Bible Code." No, not at all.  Recalling a physicist considering the Bible Code in the first of those books, his view was that the Bible Code, should it be found valid, could not have been constructed without an entity having knowledge of all things that exist, existed, will exist through all of time; simultaneously.  The Bible Code, if valid, is a miracle that is beyond man's consciousness.  In contrast, 'six e's" are a device that a man created.  A very simple one at that.  It is one of the simplest methods of encryption, but one which makes the reader work to discover intent.  A simple example:


Robert Gordon is writing his first letter to Marie Stanton (page 21), expressing his love, and we find in the acrostic wording "Yipei" which I considered "Yippee" or something like that.  Can you imagine the stern and serious WD Gann (as reflected in Robert Gordon) emoting "Yippee?"  An acrostic amplifying the plain worded narrative.

Okay, a little thin.  Another example but with far more gravity, err, gravitas:


You find on separate pages, spaced exactly 80 vertical lines apart, the words "Tao," "to" and "WAR."  Tao means "Path."  We have "Path to WAR."  To boot, they span page 69 which is the incredible discussion of Jonah wherein it is recounted that no sign shall be given but for the sign of Jonah.  And then, when I renumbered TTTTA and added dates, I find that "Tao" falls on the date;  9  / 11 / 2001 and the number of deaths on that day, 2996.  In my interpretation, 9/11/2001 is the "path to war."  And it was.

The acrostics are a contrivance of man.  What is the subject matter of that second example?  Is it a demonstration of a man's understanding of the predetermined nature of all things.  That a man could compute the future and then thinly encode it into a book some 64 years before its occurrence?

The noxious one is causing me to reconsider the enormity of these thoughts...and this finite accountant finds them quite so.

Here's the latest kerfuffle.  The noxious one claims that he is embarrassed that an accountant, normally possessed of common sense, would offer the theory that there is a triangle formed of 12, and possibly 13, gravestones that Mr. Gann created.  I don't have an answer.  I have considered how Mr. Gann might have created a geometry out of 12 or 13 gravestones.  I just don't know.  But it exists.  You can't see it on the ground but you can sense its existence.  Here it is from Google Earth:


[Note; the apex of the triangle above is the hypothetical location of the 13th stone at the base of the "Great Tree."]

On my first trip to Green-Wood Cemetery on June 21, 2015, I didn't see the above.  I did notice that stone #3, which is Mr. Gann's stone, was aligned with several other stones and that those several stones were misaligned with the stones behind them.  When I pulled the Google Earth satellite shot, I could see the alignment of 7 stones (stones 1-7 above) in the back row, then, a row of 3 stones (stones 8, 9 and 10) before that line, and another line of 2 stones (11 and 12).  I could also see in the satellite shot that all of those alignments were contrary to any other stones surrounding the triangle.  So, I had to go back to Green-Wood Cemetery and confirm the parallel alignments of the 3 rows which I did on August 2, 2015.  And then I had to go back and confirm the existence of a 13th stone under the "Great Tree" and the endowment of the "Great Tree" by, prospectively, WD Gann.  I did that on November 15, 2015.  [The 13th stone remains under investigation, but I like the scenario at present.]

The above photo shows the dissimilarity of 12 of the 13 stones from the surrounding stone alignments.  I've looked at every stone around those 12 stones visible above, both on the ground and from the satellite photos.  The 12 stones are unique among their surroundings and bounded by them.  And I've compared the Green-Wood Cemetery map shown below to the actual placements; the placements are not correct.  There are major differences.  Below are those evaluations:


The left pane above shows the stones surrounding the triangle and their clearly divergent orientation. The stones have listed on them their plot number.  The pane on the right is the computer map that is printed at the Green-Wood Cemetery office also contains the plot numbers.  The orientation on the left, the numerical sequencing of the plots does not comport with the map on the right.  They aren't even close.

The triangle, based on my investigation, is proof that it exists.  It is 'prima facie.'  You can see it, you can see the alignment of the faces of the stones and you can see its boundaries.  The only question is did Mr. Gann, similar to how he contrived the acrostic and telestic encoding and the 'six e's,' contrive the triangle?  Did he purchase all the lots and/or otherwise conspire with fellow Masons (this is the Masonic section 129 of Green-Wood Cemetery), to plan their final rest to create a triangle.  Consider:

  
We find on the great tree an emblem inscribed "E1942."  My interpretation, the tree was endowed in 1942, the year in which WD Gann purchased plot 37747 and the year in which Sadie Gann was interred there.  So, yes, there is evidence that Mr. Gann, at a minimum, contrived the "Great Tree" that blocks his grave's view...at least during the spring and summer...of the Manhattan Financial District.  But my attempts to prove he purchased the 12 or 13 plots are unrewarded.  I purchased Green-Wood Cemetery Research Department time to research many of the plots comprising the triangle...it seems they were not purchased by the same person and were purchased over many years.  Generally, they were purchased by the people interred there.  Not a surprise, but not an answer to how the 'prima facie' triangle was created.  [I have given it one last try as you see HERE.]

So, the brilliance of Mr. Noxious One; where ignorance becomes brilliance.  He says "If you, Mr. Accountant,  have so much common sense, how do you explain the creation of a triangle out of gravestones that were purchased over a period of decades?"  I give him too much credit for the articulation of the question because, well, the guy has a hard time expressing himself.  But I get the point.  In fact, I got the point long before he posed it.

The answer is, "I don't know.  But its there."

He would say its random and "You wrong Mr. No Common Sense Accountant."  I say, "I don't know."

The noxious one forces us to consider; the 'six e's' are there and were man contrived, the acrostics/telestics are there and were man contrived....but the triangle is there but....


Consider.
