Nemesis Defined

From the Greek of the same, originally meant, "the act of distributing or apportioning" and later became, "(divine) wrath and retribution, righteous indignation at the breach of rules."
Nemesis was a deity who restores a balance. Were a bunch of shipmakers to launch a vessel without saluting the gods, for instance, this act of hubris might call forth a counter-reaction, as we saw with the Titanic. There was no judgmentalism or divine punishment involved, simply a response from the other world to lapses occurring in this one.

  • Rapid Temperature Increases Above The Antarctic: This goes to my theory of an extraterrestri al cause of global warming as evidenced taking place on other planets in our solar system. The south pole lies in line with Nasa's 1984 discovery of a massive infra-red body at the outer edge of our solar system. This body can only be viewed with an infra-red telescope. And it can only be studied from the southern Hemisphere. Curiously such a telescope (The South Polar Telescope) has been recently completed (1992?) on Antarctica. ___starman1984
