You know you've got a problem

When you get out of bed at 5.20am to go on wikipedia to settle an argument with your own sleep-deprived mind over osmosis.

I did that last weekend... no joke. This is eerie.

i learned differential calculus via osmosis (ie i slept in class with my head on the textbook and still passed) would have been 100% more awesome if id handed back a blank textbook ^__^

Yes, it would have been.

Wouldn't osmosis with a textbook technically mean that a part of your brain gets osmosed out of your head and into the textbook?

Okay, a blank, soggy textbook.

I've woken up before to work out the maths behind a flying superfortress using a S/RAMJET to keep it flying

Actually it came about over a discussion over 'absorbing' books. (with myself)

jeez you are such a nerd

Half of the people that frequent this forum are insane or pretend insanity...
Thats why Im here so frequently

And I would say that at least 20% of Off topic's topics cause irreversible brain damage.

i wouldnt think so, since i would be osmosing the textbook, not the other way around (since the amount of calculus related information the textbook would have been able to absorb would have been minimal.....)

[Felix the Cat]

Calculus would go from the textbook to your brain.

Other things would go from your brain to the textbook.

[DandyGnome]

Osmosis does not require a two way transfer. If the osmosis is of calculus information then the transfer would continue until there was an equal concentration of calculus information in the textbook and your brain or the connection was broken.

[Comp1337]

However, the osmosis of calculus does imply that osmosis of knowledge is possible. That would mean that knowledge is osmosable. The calculus book probably has a pretty low degree of History or RTS skills

IIRC osmosis is when the solvent gets pulled into the container with more solvable material to equalize the concentration of solvables in both containers. In this case the information is solved in the brain and as there is no brain on the pages of the textbook...
