The J-Orbit
Created | Updated Apr 19, 2002
When an item is lost, a person may spend many hours engaged in a futile search during which much mental energy is expended. This energy is unusually focused on one particular physical item, which absorbs and transforms it into a form of kinetic energy. The 'lost' item is launched into an extra-dimensional orbit around the point at which it was quite happily, and inanimately sitting until somebody decided to uncontrollably focus energy at it.
Once the search has been stopped, the owner of the mind quickly forgets the item and the stream of focused energy ends. The item then drops out of the J-Orbit and lands back in its original position which is usually in plain view of the searcher.
