The hypothesis of 25

[dontcareaboutmyid]

Somewhere out there in the big olde world of ours, someone decided to study what a person would begin to be like if they wern't on a 24 hour timed day

That study turned up some results that showed a person's body will being to convert to a 25 hour day, given no measure of time to compute through actual thinking.

THAT, ties into circadian rhythms.

point of this thread - why 25 hours?

hypothesis, we as humans are lazy.

How i come about that.

through life we learn math, our system of numbers being base ten. the base ten has the numbers

1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 and 0

the number 25, is a multiple of 5, 5 being one of the easiest numbers ever.

Why?

let's look at all the numbers

the number 1, is the most complex of numbers out there. reason being, 1 goes into each and every last number. 1,2,3,4,5.... continuing on in sequence.

the number 2, half as complex (get it). hitting all the even numbers in sequence.

the number three will hit all of the numbers,3,6,9 then continuing into double digits wil hit 2 5 8 1 4 7 0

4 will go 4 8 2 6 0,

6: 6 2 8 4 0
7: 7 4 1 8 5 2 9 6 3 0
8: 8 6 4 2 0
9: 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0

getting to 5, the smiplest of numbers

5: 5 0

the brain only has to worry about two things. Easy no?

what about ten you ask? first, 10 is two digits in its own right, starting something completly new. second, 10 will hit all the first numbers in its second digit, being even more complexe than 1.

second reason we as humans are lazy. 25 is the closest coresponding whole number to 24, besides 23, but that number is too complex.

Forget even trying to get the brain to enterperate 24.5, that THREE WHOLE NUMBERS!!!
