Why did this particular piece of technobabble become so iconic?
Why did it ressonate?
What was it about this particular meme with caused it to become self-sustaining, self-replicating, and which gave it life..?
How did it become Mantra..?
Well, one reason we do know about and can prove for certain is that in a break from his usual habit of complaints and dissatisfaction with the lines he had to memorise, Jon Pertwee absolutely adored that line the first time that he read it, realising and immediately declaring that he could sing it to the tune of the Sailor's Hornpipe, which he did, and thereafter immediately started insisting that the entire cast and any/all membets the production staff within earshot or on the studio floor should all participate in doing so together as a daily ritual at the start of every work day.
It taps into the bardic traditions of ancient magick.
It may be nonsense, but it's catchy nonsense.
But is it actually nonsense...?
Neutrons are not polarised particles, by definition, but beyond any question, they certainly do move move all the time in this or that direction or the other, depending on what forces are acting on then and the energy they already has at any given instant.
To produce changes whereby instead, they a begin to move in the precise OPPOSITE direction, for the direction of flow to be reversed means that time would have had to be made to run backwards.
So, time is now running backwards.
This quite likely has already happened more than once.
I would suggest continuously, as the natural structuring of time in the material universe - which is quite different of course in character to the way in which we experience consciousness, which is all linear, and flowing in a single direction.
Which is why backmasking magick spells and incantations work.
“. . .train himself to think BACKWARDS by external means, as set forth here following.
(a) Let him learn to write BACKWARDS. . .
(b) Let him learn to walk BACKWARDS. . .
(c) Let him. . . listen to phonograph records REVERSED
(d) Let him practise speaking BACKWARDS. . .
(e) Let him learn to read BACKWARDS. . .”
