[This just in!](http://www.timecube.com/) I knew everything I’d been taught was wrong, now I know why. Read amazing revelations like: > [@](#): > > Earth has perfect vertical axis…Without Time Cube, your life right is voided. > [@](#): > > You were educated stupid and evil by evil educators. Do you enjoy being stupid? Time Cube ignorance is evil. Demand Time Cube debate in all academic institutions. You do not have the “guts” to seek Time Cube “Truth”. Academia is a religious cult empowerment of self word. Academic word ‘rots’ brain. > [@](#): > > Not even a god can deny that I have squared the circle of a static Earth and cubed the Earth sphere by rotating it once to a dynamic Time or Life Cube. Slashdot had [an interview](http://slashdot.org/interviews/01/06/07/1421238.shtml) with Alex Chiu and named Gene Ray as his “only serious competition.” No, I’d say Gene takes the cake- game, set and match.

“A pity about your mind.” Indeed. “Any educator who allows Time Cube debate will most likely be fired or killed by religious zealot brethren who staff and control all academic schools. Name 1 Time Cube debating school on all of the Earth.” Well, that’s unassailable. I conceed. **Moderator’s Notes:**** Thinksnow **, just to let you know,** David B** edited out your link to Alex Chiu’s site. This is one link we will no longer allow on our message board. Let me explain. Alex Chiu’s minions spammed us terrifically in the not so distant past. They have quite a system set up over there to track the who, when, and how of all visitors to their site. When they see a rising number of click-thrus from a site, they know it’s coming from a link placed on a message board. The data this tracking system generates is made available to all of Chiu’s “associates” and butt-minders. The end result of which is every little Chiu shithead jumping into action with spam at the ready; it’s like they got it in a quick-draw holster. In order to prevent yet another influx of spam from these dicks with ears, we remove Chiu links as soon as we see 'em. Sorry 'bout that, but if people wanna get to Chiu’s homepage, and it _is_ worth the trip in laffs, they can go thru the link supplied on the Slashdot page that you’ve provided. That’ll keep us insulated. Thanks for your understanding, assuming you do. If not, feel free to e-mail me and we can discuss it further if you wish. Fair enough?

Mea culpa, **UB** , et al. It’s just amazing to me that something like this is given anything more than a passing chuckle, that someone would actually take it seriously. From my, admittedly biased by being grounded in reality, mind, it seems that these guys support everything we’re agianst: the total proliferation of life-affecting ignorance. It saddens me, actually, that people could be so lost, so yearning for some new meanign to make sense of it all, that they would embrace this utter science fiction and fantasy. ---

Yeah, I know. Pathetic, ain’t it? A coupla simple high school level science courses, physics and chemistry, is all it would take to understand that what these yahoos propose is simply impossible. Hell, you could even watch a few episodes of Bill Nye, the Science Guy. He’d set ya straight in short order. ---

Gee, and I was gonna suggest that the guy who invented this was a genius, but Gene Ray blows him away. How could you debate this guy when even his written word doesn’t shut up long enough for you to get a word in? ---

I have a headache now…I think my head exploded while I was reading that. > [@](#): > > **The straight line on the heart monitor equates to the perfectionof death. The oscillation or imperfection of that straight line, represents the imperfection of all created life on Earth - depicted in Nature’s Harmonic Time Cube. > Without Time Cube, your life right is voided.** It’s all so clear now… ---

Wow, I thought you guys were talking about a face-off match or something from the “Iron Chef” show. Whoops! 😃
