Invisibility cloak ? Good but useless .

I had decided not to write anything light ,
but this light matter was so catchy that this could be perfect example of 'How People can hype useless things ... ' , (aka how politicians can promise the ideal world which could never exist ) how people are made to think ILLOGICAL …

We are taking the case of Media report of "Invisibility cloak in the making .."

If we got a invisibility cloak ..
First tell me how will I use it ? No matter with what principle that invisibility cloak is made up of it must not let even a single photon coming in my direction get reflected AND they should let the photon coming from my behind should be passed path unchanged . (I know front and back are relative, nevertheless I used it just for convenient way to explain . . Applicable from each direction.)

And now as anyone who has studied Biology knows that we see because photons make impression on some cones and rods in our eyes. And that is how we see the world. So effectively if a cube is transparent /invisible then it is not letting photon interact with its material . So a very plain conclusion we can derive is invisibility cloak has to be a pitch black blanket from inside . (As we are not letting any photon come inside ..). Now sole objective of yours is just to hide then fine . But now that could be done even by ‘a movable big Flower pot ( patented by Charlie chaplin ) or a cupboard , or even sack should do that .

So guys now is there any use of a blanket which effectively renders me blind ??

I do not think so .
I also do not think it is of any help to even voyeuristic people , leave alone any spy operations , and obviously to uncle Sammy ..

So guys conclusion is reality can be more different from Hype , and what mind is conditioned to believe need not be true at all . ( e.g. invisible cloak is fun … )

Problem is not reservation, it’s just side effect

When a bucket is overflowing with water . What is the problem water overflowing or knob being on. One is the problem another is the effect .

Cause : Water knob is on .

Effect : Water overflowing.

When we feel bad about the reservation in education on the merit basis not on need basis

we try to argue that how 'Reservation is wrong' and try to prove it logically. With the base of logic being achieving for the good of the community as whole.

Now once again if we see the situation from different perspective 'The (faulty) democracy' is the cause. And the reservation is the effect. I truly believe that those who played reservation card played it not for advancement of community but for there political gain. It is foolish to think that Reservation was for good of the society . It is good for the section of society which is in majority and hence happens to be the real center of decision making body. Discrimination against upper-cast (the minority ) is a mild version of of jews discrimination in Germany. And only good thing is they are not being killed or imprisoned for being uppercast. The worst part is they are not able to understand that. hah .

History is evidence that powerful rules weak. In democracy power is with section of population in majority.

I am just not surprised over the situation why the upper cast people are facing

the reverse discrimination under the sweet name of 'social justice' .

If by democracy we mean opting for the path which more number of people support

rather than 'the right path' I do not see how you can challenge Reservation. Those who took the decision of reservation took the decision because it was rewarding for them and they were rewarded by section which is in majority . It is foolish to try to prove to these people that how reservation is bad for society as a whole.

There is no incentive in ( at least our ) Democracy to choose the right path over the path wanted by more number people . If there should be debate , then it should be on how to make Democracy choose the right decision against the decision wanted by more number of people.

Just for analogy I feel the ongoing discussion over Reservation is like trying to take water out of overflowing bucket of water instead of turning off the water knob.

It was dark and stormy night ,
when God created men and women .
It is since people discuss whether Gods move was right or wrong .

Even Newton stood on shoulder of giants I am just borrowing the quote from a great .

So I finally made my mind that I will put my opinions on Blog. For the world to read ,
to laugh and to debate . If God the almighty could not stop his decision being debated
how on god’s green earth I could be ?

But to all the potential reader , read my disclaimer , rules et cetra .
1. My writing sucks. If you are bothered come and dare sue me. You can
also lend me a helping hand to improve it otherwise kindly .
2. Truth and not truthiness will be written , debated and dissected here.
All the may fly of emotions are strictly banned. Prove me that after life
is cool and I am ready to die today .
3. Logics alone rules.
