Aha! So the solution set is out of bounds for a mind ? Recall I mentioned recursion. One of the tasks is creation recreating creation ?
See Larry Niven and Jerry Pournelle, in particular "Oath of Fealty" and the catchphrase "Think of it as Evolution in Action".

"What is it for? " &lt;=&gt; whatever is handy LOL.

I will post net links and commments on this thread. The other thread is for any helpful comments any of you all may care to make. I will not post on the other thread. I am balanced now, neither too loose nor too tight. I had great difficulty recovering from the images of the governments servicing the national debts.....

Now that would be nice! Unfortunately I have no money. Was the data structure I provided useful ? If so then do you want more ? If so then what do I get ? I am having great difficulty getting connected to this forum...

One thing I have noted is that I get no hits for searches on :
transverse compressional surface interferometry
Is there something else I should be calling this topic ?

I realize now that the relevance of the topic I mentioned might not be obvious. Consider the history of morale boosting music and you will understand that it has been instinctively understood for thousands of years. I just thought that there may have been more formal studies after finding the device mentioned previously.

The ancient Roman army fed its soldiers a daily ration of bread, water, and salt. The legions were unstoppable until affluence diluted the effect by varying the diet so far from the basis that the average legion member was unable to become one with the unit. At least that is what I think. The downside of unit cohesion is best summed up by the observation someone else made :
The intelligence quotient of a set is inversely proportional to the size of the set. That may be a misquote, indeed it may be an utterly false statement. The size of the set is not so important as the organizational topology. If a homogenous replicative structure is used then the set may be stupid indeed. On the other hand, an interleaved tolerant heterogenous organization has far more built in degrees of freedom.

In 1992 I wrote a package "Music2" for the Amiga which generated digital music based upon period rather than frequency. I sent it out but nothing every came back to indicate that it had been used. Is this the method used for Midi music ? If you have the package then you will note using the free form graphing screen that rather complex patterns can be produced using just three tones. I said then and I say now - that program is public domain. Single tone music is a good starting point, but hybrid chords really rock!

There are many amusing and bizarre notions propagating on the net. While these are acceptable as entertainment, they are incompatible with the concensus of opinions. So unless you are willing to take your proper place as entertainment within the bounds of the concensus composed of Reality, Order, and the Scientific Method, then I say begone. Do not go away mad, just simply go away. I do not take you seriously, and I expect that everybody else also will simply laugh at you. The power of words in the minds of engineers is nothing to trifle with, and you all are outnumbered by a long shot.

HAH HAH HO

I have another good one to lay on you. Anyone who tries to reap the whirlwind should remember who cleans like a white tornado.
