Munkeeguy--In Latin, lacrimo (and it's various other forms while in different declensions) means "he/she/it cries or weeps". And, since Latin is the root of many different languages, lacrimo has become "lacrimose" ("tearful") in English, and a Spanish variation of the word I can't seem to remember at all at the moment. But, basically, Lacrimosa means "sad", "tearful", etc. Lacrimosa is a song about dieing, and people crying, wishing God have mercy on his soul. ;D

I couldn't agree more.:)

Exactly the point. Its sometimes the most obvious things that are taken for granted. It appears throughout nature. From the dna helix to the swirl of the biggest galaxy. All energy and matter is composed of waves. These waves of energy ,that make everything, can be expressed in sin,cosine or tan waves. These waves relate perfectly to the geometry of the universe. Most of our technology is based on 1:1.618 because it is strong and aesthetically pleasing. It even appears in the bible.

Well it's very useful in geometry, but I really don't see how it contains all the secrets of the universe lol. Please please please explain how it's special, it's just a constant like Pi surely.
