o segments, breaking apart at your midsection. upon falling further, the difference in gravity continues to grow, and each of your two body segments snaps into two segments. shortly thereafter, those segments each snap into two segments of their own, and so forth, and so forth, bifurcating your body into an ever-increasing number of parts: 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, etc. read the following excerpt from billy collins’s "man listening to disc." the music is loud yet so confidential i cannot help feeling even more like the center of the universe than usual as i walk along to a rapid little version of "the way you look tonight," what do these two excerpts reveal about the difference in ideas presented by tyson and collins? tyson stresses humanity’s relative insignificance in the universe, while collins stresses man’s perceived importance. tyson describes man’s place in the universe, while collins focuses primarily on the role of mankind itself. tyson’s essay is a serious discussion of black holes, while collins’s poem mocks the importance of music. tyson discusses the probability of being swallowed by black holes, while collins describes the effects of listening to music.

Q: What is the valley of ashes in the great Gatsby

<em>Whoaaa! You're reading The Great Gatsby? That's literally the best book I've read in English class! You should definitely watch the movie when you have time because 1. It helped me out on my test and 2. It was so good!</em>

<em />

<em>Alright, enough of the jibber jabbering... let me answer your question.  </em>

<em />

<em>The Valley of Ashes is a farm where ashes grow like wheat into hills, ridges, and even gardens. It's very desolate and empty, marking the intersection of the city with the suburbs. It's between the East and West Egg and is created by the dumping of industrial waste. It symbolizes the moral and social decay, as well as the carefree pursuit of wealth, since the rich do as they please and don't care about anything else besides their own pleasure.</em>

<em />

<em>Hope this helped you out!</em>
