File:Gebar.png My name is George Barouxis, I am 52 years old, and I live in Athens, Greece. On the web I usually use the nickname Gebar. I have a BA from an American college based in Greece, and I have studied for 2-3 years in the National Technical University of Athens. I work as a professional freelance book translator for more than 25 years (English to Greek), and I have translated almost everything, science, psychology, health, alternative medicine, (with the notable exception of economics and law), as well as a lot of fiction by known and unknown authors.

The photo is not very recent, but it was the only one available at the moment. So add about ten years and lots of grey hair, sprinkle liberally with wrinkles, and toss  File:Smile.gif.



A small note about the simple way I will be trying to work things out here. Right now there are a lot of very smart and highly trained people who use the abstract mathematics approach in physics to good effect. Personally I do not have much faith in the ability of this approach to give physically meaningful solutions for the reasons I have outlined in Theoretical Considerations. Here I will try to explore things in simpler ways to see what can come out of it.

Also, as is evident from the Project Outline (see Main Page), I will be following paths that are quite different from the prevalent avenues of research. I suspect that these paths will prove quite fruitful, but this also remains to be seen in the proof of the pudding.

A final note. I do not have any illusions as to the interest these theories may generate or the acceptance they may have. I am outside the scientific community, and this means that it will be almost impossible to be heard. On the other hand, I do not like the option of not even trying. If these theories prove wrong, I will be the first to admit it. If they prove right, at least they will be publicly available for anyone who may want to have a look. Since they are way outside the mainstream, only someone with very high credentials (which I lack) could make the scientific community notice them. I believe however that at some point some physicist with such credentials will stumble upon these ideas as I stumbled upon them.
