Music, Movies, and Books

I have no restrictions on music. I like almost everykind of music that sounds good to me but first three would be Rock, Jazz-Swing, Classical and folk musics of diffrent cultures.
I love reading books, but nowadays I prefer short articles about scientific topics on the Internet. Maybe I'm spending a lot of time on the internet instead of reading a book :)
For movies, I like to watch movies a lot. Especially social, biographical, historical, real stories and comedies (I rarely find good comedies)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've traveled most of İran alone (this was my first lonely traveling so it was a kind of looking into myself) and I've saved a person's life.

Teach, Learn, Share

The distance between all train tracks on earth is 143.5 centimeters.

Since there are no steering and brakes in the primitive transportation vehicles, in order to facilitate the journey, cavities were opened in the rocks where the wheels could enter. In ancient times, such roads connecting Athens, Sparta and Olympia. Although the Roman Empire used these channels less frequently than the Greeks, they developed these ways technologically. In particular, after the Roman occupation, the transport vehicle width in England became widespread between 1.40 and 1.50 meters. 1,435 meters were used.

When the continent of America was discovered and the railroads began to be built, this magically preserved 143.5 centimeter width.

This has even affected the construction of space shuttles.

So the American engineers thought the fuel tanks should be larger, but the fuel tanks were made in Utah and they had to be transported by train to the space center in Florida.

There are tunnels on the road. If the fuel tanks are larger, they cannot pass through the tunnels and the transportation cannot be realized.

If they said so, they accepted the measure that the Romans decided was ideal.
