Monz and Paul!
I find this type of logic rather so all inclusive as to not be meaningful. It is too easy
to run down simple ratios until you fine one that worked. In fact if you took random numbers
the results would be the same. As I stated before, the relationships between the planets are
not simple ratios. If they were, a resonance would build up and destroy the orbit.
golden/noble relationships seem to be a necessity.
The problem will be as there are a infinite of whole number relationships, there are a
infinite series of noble numbers; both can express the continuum.
