Principle or law of nature
Admin1: What is the difference between a principle and a law of nature?
Dr. Gravytee: A principle is an arbitrary definition invented by Alphysics Doctors to fill an annoying discontinuity in logic which is stopping Alphysics Doctors from arbitrarily defining a law of nature to save the Alphysics dogma.

Cosmic Guacamole
Admin1: A woman in California filed suit against Kraft Foods, Inc., claiming that the company commits fraud by calling a dip product guacamole.
Doctor Gravytee: I hope that the news does not get around. As long as the media presents it as yet another curiousity from California we should be OK.
A1: Alphysics connection is obvious isn't it? The woman is very logical. She says that the main ingredient in guacamole is avacoda. Kraft Foods sells a product as guacamole which does not contain avocado. Therefore, this logical woman reasons that what Kraft Foods sells as guacamole is not guacamole.
Dr. G: This poor woman obviously has no awareness of how science works.
A1: You mean how alphysics works.
Dr. G: Alphysics is science.
A1: The giant unhuman corporation which ironically calls itself Kraft "Foods" was concerned enough to change the labeling in their guacamole which is not guacomole.
Dr. G: To what?
A1: They'll change the label to read "avocado-flavored guacamole."
Dr. G: That's a dangerous compromise! What's next? Someone will sue Alphysics Doctors because there is no science ingredient in our cosmogonical scenarios and string theory enchilada? What nonsense!
A1: No problem. You will just change your label: "String Theory: Best Science-flavored scenario ever. Dip your curiosity in our rich science flavor made with plenty of artificial cosmogonic colorings and number mysticism, scholastic sophistry and metaphysical polemics."
Dr. G: String Theory is now at revolution number XXX and it has 10 per cent more improved science flavor in it.
A1: Are you going to add some experimental flavor in the next revolution?
Dr. G: You bet.

Is Alphysics legal
Admin1: What Latin is to Law Mathematics is to Alphysics.
Doctor Gravytee: Exactly. In Alphysics we use
- specialized words and phrases unique or nearly unique to Alphysics, such as, "it is easy to prove that..." and "it is well known that...." "we have proved in our previous paper that..."
- everyday English words that when used in Alphysics have different meanings from everyday usage, such as action, string, force, to know, everything, zero, one, equal to... the list goes on and on. We actively and explicitly corrupt the English language and we are very proud of it.
- archaic vocabulary. Alphysics employs a fairly large number of outdated words and phrases that were formerly part of everyday English but are today rare except in Alphysics. Most of them date from the 17th century. Most are long abandoned outside Alphysics. The entirety of almathematics can be cited as example of archaic vocabulary.
- loan words and phrases from other languages: in this category are terms derived from German and the mechanism in German of combining words to make a new word, most famous example of which is the spacetime.
A1: There is a need for Plain English movement in Alphysics too.
Dr. G: There is no such need. Archaism is an essential ingredient of Alphysics. Legalese is bad but Alphysics is twice as bad as legalese but we market our brand so well that Alphysics stands for Science.
A1: Alphysics = Legalese?
Dr. G: No. Alphysics = 2Legalese. Legal professionals are totally ignorant of marketing. They think marketing is bad and they do not protect their brand. We use the legalistic archaic obscurantism we call Alphysics to obtain six-figure book contracts in order to explain what we obscure.
