Afterlife is the ultimate oxymoron. Life is life. A caterpillar is alive, as is a butterfly, so is one of Hammonds organs. Try putting your attention on consciousness. Thats where you will get your evidence. Once you do, the only people you will be able to prove it to, are those who have also become conscious of that reality, which, logically, need no proof. BOfL

Tubulin half life is nearly a full day, however, THE HALF LIFE OF A GIVEN MICROTUBULE MAY BE ONLY 10 MINUTES. Thus, they are in a continued state of flux. This is believed to respond to the needs of the cell and is called "dynamic instability". Furthermore, there are regulatory processes that appear to control this in a cell. Microtubule growth would be promoted in a dividing or moving cell. However, microtubule growth would be more controlled in a stable, polarized cell. One way to regulate further growth would be to put a GTP cap on the growing end of a microtubule to regulate further growth. This happens when the tubulin molecules are added faster than the GTP can be hydrolyzed. This causes the microtubule to become stable and not depolymerize.

OBE's happen, though, so I keep an open mind. My late friend, John Turner, a genuis if ever there were one, engaged in research into LCD systems, had an OBE whilst walking two Amsterdam Phillips collegues to the canteen for lunch, across a bleak quad in an ugly part of London - Croydon. Ugh! For maybe five or six seconds, he found himself looking down upon all three, yet was conscious of engaging in conversation with the other two in a chatty manner. He said, ''The experience changed my life, John!' -- Yrs, John.

He said, ''The experience changed my life, John!' -------------- That often happens to me. I see my hands moving and hear my voice speaking, but it doesn't seem to have much to do with me. I look down at myself, too. And my fingers type odd stuff on the keyboard. Like a Ouija board, I suppose. I don't think there is anything supernatural about it, just the brain having a bit of a hiccup. Perhaps it's those pesky microtubules. |
