What
is a prime symbol? We use myriad
symbols in our sentience of the universe. Every element of existence is
only manifest to us as a symbol and if we have no symbol for an element
then effectively it does not exist. We generate visual and tactile
symbols of the sun, audio symbols of wind and water, smell symbols of
other creatures, and taste symbols of plants. All these can be
considered prime symbols for they are essential to survival. All work to
generate images within us and in our societies that can sustain or
destroy us. This website is
primarily concerned with a particular type of symbol: words, both
written and spoken. The
definition of what constitutes a prime word symbol is arbitrary. This

the dominant elements of our worldview and frames our communications of
how the universe(s) work. Prime candidates are, God, love and
sex, as these play profound roles in our lives. However the focus of
this discussion is limited to the establishment of a state of science
with regard to our perceptions of the nature of energy and how Earth’s
climate works. In this context the following symbols play vital roles in
our discourse: atmosphere
