 Curse of dyslexia; re-edit of my papers

Can I share with you my personal story, one that culminated with the re-edit of my very special papers on the fractal, quantum, and cosmology? 

These days, as I am writing my book, I am making use of a kind of artificial intelligence, in the form of an assistant editor, Grammarly.

It's just a breakthrough for me; all my life, I've been cursed with dyslexia. I only learnt that word when I became a teacher. Yes, I'm a teacher, and I know how to read and write, but I have serious issues with it and have had problems in the past.

With Grammarly, I have been editing my old work and even this blog. And it's been a great feeling doing this.

However, last week I did something that threw me into a pit of humiliation: I looked over the papers I submitted to the International Journal of Quantum Foundations and found them riddled with grammatical errors. What to do? To cut a long story short, I wrote to the editor and said to him that they are not of standard, for me, nor for you. What can we do? I asked. It is not the content that is a problem, but the presentation.

I explained my situation, that I wrote the paper on my own and thought I had it covered; it means my blindness to grammar. Well, I didn't, and he was kind enough to accept a solution: I could resubmit or exchange the papers with the updated, edited versions. Which I did. "An unusual request, but I understand," he said.

 If you look at my papers, you won't see that they are updated in early December 2025, but they are. 

Makes me feel so happy. Rereading my papers, I know I've done something special and unique, and all the way through I can see again that my work has new ideas, but also it was always an invitation to grow this idea, not more.

Thanks for your patience, and as I said to the editor, "It will be my story; it is my story."

Natural fractal lake, Arethusa Pool, the worlds only?

Is Arethusa Pool (New Zealand) and its islands the world's only natural fractal lake? I was there with my family in January. It was a wonderful day and very exciting for me—mathematically speaking. Arethusa Pool (and its island) is on Mou Waho Island, Lake Wanaka, the South Island of New Zealand, and the South Pacific Ocean. Water (the South Pacific Ocean), land (South Island New Zealand), water (lake Wanaka), land (Mou Waho Island), water (Arethusa Pool), land (islands on Arethusa Pool); water in a puddle after rain (or when I filled it), land as small as a square centimetre inside the puddle, ..... water??   Arethusa Pool, and Lake Wanaka New Zealand 2015.

Fractal Dimension, (Economic's) Elasticity and Complexity

Update May 2017 This is by far my best idea; I have written it up in a working paper at  my academia.edu  and  vixra , and named it:   Quantum Mechanics, Information and Knowledge, all Aspects of Fractal Geometry and Revealed in an Understanding of Marginal Economics. I shall post the Abstract, followed by the original post, followed by the paper. I hope to have someone collaborate and review my work in time. Abstract Fractal geometry is found universally and is said to be one of the best descriptions of our reality – from clouds and trees to market price behaviour. As a fractal structure emerges  – the repeating of a simple rule –  it appears to share direct properties familiar to classical economics, including production, consumption, and equilibrium. This paper was an investigation into whether the mathematical principles behind ‘the market’ – known as marginalism – is an aspect or manifestation of a fractal geometry or attractor. Total and margin...

ePublic Goods. Is the internet making new public goods?

Keywords: Public Goods, Internet, Media, Copyright, Market Failure, File Sharing, ePublic Goods An Explanation of the Mass Failure in the Market: the Internet – the Creator of ePublic Goods   First published: October 9, 2010 Abstract Media and entertainment industries are declining; profitability is down due to ‘freer computer access. Is the internet producing ‘Public goods’ from what were Private goods? With respect to these goods and the Internet, the assumption used to classify ‘Private goods' and Public goods in an economy (the degree of excludability and rivalry) was analysed, and the respective industries were tested for being Public Goods. It was concluded that these goods within the entertainment/media industries are slowly being repositioned from what is termed 'private' or 'club'/'congestion' goods to their extreme opposite, public goods. The ‘free rider problem’ of Public Goods has become the ‘free copy problem’ with respect to t...
