hitewolf, I don't mean to be rude, but please don't spread misinformation when you are not knowledgeable on a topic. Your responses in this thread have been cryptic, vague, and worst of all, completely incorrect. I think bapowell's nice concise answer is basically the end of the geometric discussion. However, there is an interesting point here that I'd like to make, which is that the curvature of the universe (positive, negative, or zero) is a separate question from the topology of our universe. For example, since we know the universe is flat (curvature is zero), the easiest solution to have is the simple plane. But there are other solutions, for example, the universe could be shaped like a torus! There are other, more exotic global topologies of the universe, and it's interesting to think about but often difficult to experimentally verify (since one can always make the radius of the doughnut, for example, very large such that there is no hope to observe its global structure on the timescales available to us).

I am sorry, but that forum does not confirm your claim.

Is it much much much thicker in the middle?

In spite of this, there are some people who are endeavoring to conduct human research on psychedelic drugs, especially LSD, Ketamine and psilocybin. Alongside investigating their potential use as therapeutics, scientists also hope that by studying how they affect the brain in controlled settings, we could unlock some of the mysteries of consciousness.

I don't think it's actually bad for you, except insofar as it's bad to share with other people whatever revelations you think you had while on acid. Which this post is a pretty good example of.

What mysteries?

They're only mysteries to the drug addled brain. ;)
 
There are seven levels.

I was quoting Paul McCartney. The first time that he smoked weed he had a revelation and he knew the secret of the universe. He told the Beatles roadie Mal Evans to write it down. The next day Mal showed him the piece of paper. On it was written "There are seven levels". So much for drugs proving insights.

I agree with Paul McCartney. about the 7 levels.
 
How did you know the combination of my safe?
 
Actually there are eight levels. Everybody overlooks the basement.
