12:44 AM I believe many people were scandalized when i said variations of atmospheric pressure can influence pressure 50 or 100 km deep inside Earth. Here's a few facts. Force created by atmospheric pressure on a square meter or weight of the atmosphere above a square meter is about 10 tons.

How much is that when calculated on an area of hundreds of square km above a seismic area?

How come we do not get crushed by this weight? Because every cell of our body has been born and raised under this pressure, so it's inside and outside, the same.


The same way some fish survive in much greater pressure deep in the sea.

But variations. Have you ever heard of people complaining of pains with "change of weather" which usually involves change of the atmospheric pressure which can go from minus 4.3 percent to plus 2.6?

How much is that? 6.9 percent of 20 tons?

2:07 It just occurred to me. This would mean the 7% variations in atmospheric pressure could translate in the same amount of variations in blood pressure. I mean, there's a difference between 140 and 150, right?

2:15 Today i realized i don't crave sweets so much anymore. First thing that came in mind was i was taking vitamin C in the cutaneous way (DIY patches) for a while now.

Could it be craving for sweets when we lack vitamin C an evolutionary response to the fact that fruits, a major source of vitamin C, are usually sweet ? The other major source being vegetables that don't seem to have been part of the prehistoric humans diet because they need cooking and some, like potatoes, tomatoes, bell peppers, were available on the American continent only.

Same goes for alcohol. Many fruits contain alcohols.

However the other reason could be, unfortunately, i'm smoking now.
