[Vision2020] The Hype of the Shroud

[tbertruss at aol.com]

All:
 
It appears that this "mystery" is driving some scientists "nuts" despite Joan's claim to the contrary.  
 
Anyway, Joan's assessment of the nature of modern scientific research was flat out wrong.
Much of it does focus on obscure details and theories that drive scientists "nuts," not the grand sweeping issues that Joan describes below:
 
"What drives scientists nuts is string theory, or quantum mechanics, or Stephen Hawking's admission that he made a mistake in his original work on black holes and the origins of the universe."
 
There are thousands of topics of scientific research ongoing right now that no one on the V2020 list serve has ever heard of that are driving thousands of scientists nuts at this very moment.  The extreme specialization of modern science has resulted in scientists spending years of their life trying to solve the most obscure and esoteric problems that 99.9% of the population will probably never understand.
 
I'd list a few now, but anyone can Google "Science Magazine" to find their own list of obscure research topics that will have their head spinning...

But it doesn't explain the red ochre and vermilion pigments. Another study
says the shroud is a painting www.mcri.org/Shroud.html, it also references
the carbon dating, which we are now being told was erroneous.
Yet another study typed the blood stains as being type AB, but the first
claims they are not actually blood. And, dang now I can't remember/find the
web address.....I need a beer....
I still doubt the camera obscura theory, Wayne, I think the shroud would
show the telltale signs of an aging photograph. Not too mention all of the
variables that could have occured during the exposure process that may have
taken days: differences in light, wind and such. Would the weather have been
identical for at least two exposures taking a total of, say, 6 days?
It is a riddle inside an enigma inside a question wrapped in a shroud of
mystery...........ok so that was bad. But it IS Friday.
