OT - bored with gaming ? Get philosophy!

Read what I said, not what you thought I said. One Last quote and I really intend not to post any more comments. "Frankly Scarlett, I don't give a ****." - Gone With the Wind.

I certainly did not intend to return here, but now my "credit card" has been cancelled, and I stopped getting useful email. So as someone intimated a while back, yes this seems to be the only forum where I can interact. A search Lycos took me to : http://www.crosswordmaestro.com/agd84.exe
Decode Lonnie Courtney Clay only took a second.
Very funny. Ha Ha. Big Deal. Do I care ? No, absolutely not.
I define what I am, and have since childhood.
Experience overcomes initial conditions.
The Last couple weeks have been full of experience.
Is this game over now ?
Edit : I will not tell you the many things I have experienced, just a quick sanity check took a couple of minutes.... See : http://www.terramarine.com/jp.htm

Some definitions to consider : inoculation, obfuscation, inclination, inflection, deflection, correction, projection, prediction, situation, well the list goes on and on...
Old cliches to drag in :
Necessity is the mother of invention.
Practice makes perfect.
A stitch in time saves nine.
All the net is busily revising everything ever written, inventing new things, and faking it when clueless. Check the situation yourselves. How amusing. Would anyone care to add some more old cliches to this thread ?

Had a strange thought Last night. You've probably heard of the "many-worlds" hypothesis? That there are many possible universes, and that they all exist simultaneously? Well, what if every fundamental particle in our universe is actually a universe, and also every universe is a fundamental particle in some other universe? It's actually a closed system, except that it is recursive in a seemingly illogical way. A "multiverse" with N universes would have N-1 fundamental particles to use. Or, put the other way, if there are N particles in our universe, then that allows for N+1 universes in the "multiverse." That's a lot of universes!

Read "Wizard War" by Hugh Cook if I recall correctly. A green bottle and a red bottle posed a puzzle for a character. The controls for the bottles were rings around their necks. It took him a couple weeks to figure out how to get past a barred grill using the bottle he found on a desk in a library.
I would not care to attempt a rigorous physical description of creation. I think of it metaphorically as linked lists of data structures. Address pointers are information exchange operators. Data values range along a continuum in reference to "physical constants". The "laws of nature" are local rules entirely dependent on the local data structure.

For more food for thought look up *isms words. Then web search with them. Someone really should create a structured English dictionary that gets rid of this reverse Polish notation.....

I love philosophy. I used to spend a lot of time at work talking to another Philosophy buff. God I miss working with him.

I would say that God is well aware of all events in creation, from personal experience. In case there is some misconception here I am not God, nor do I speak directly to God, at least so far as I know. I use another old hackneyed cliche "Where There Is A Will, There Is A Way".
