Our method is everything we have learnt so far. This is the springboard to the future. Among the things we have learnt are some at least of the precautions necessary to increase our certainty that we can rely on the information we have collected.

Work and God. Intro to Theology: what we are setting out to say here is that the visible world of experience, what we call the physical world, is a countable manifestation of the transfinite network of communication called god or the (wave) function of

the Universe. The idea has certain consequences that we take up under the heading of religion, and these consequences echo into politics and economics.

Reviewing old dream entries, I realize I was not a particularly happy person in the eighties. Now I am happy and the personal reason for this site is to log the journey that I made, so that others might become interested and perhaps learn from it. An expression of rejoicing at being successful in the hunt for happiness.

Nielsen, Michael A, and Isaac L Chuang, Quantum Computation and Quantum Information, Cambridge University Press 2000 Review: A rigorous, comprehensive text on quantum information is timely. The study of quantum information and computation represents a particularly direct route to understanding quantum mechanics. Unlike the traditional route to quantum mechanics via Schrödinger 's equation and the hydrogen atom, the study of quantum information requires no calculus, merely a knowledge of complex numbers and matrix multiplication. In addition, quantum information processing gives direct access to the traditionally advanced topics of measurement of quantum systems and decoherence.'

Tanenbaum, Andrew S, Computer Networks, Prentice Hall International 1996 Preface: 'The key to designing a computer network was first enunciated by Julius Caesar: Divide and Conquer. The idea is to design a network as a sequence of layers, or abstract machines, each one based upon the previous one. ... This book uses a model in which networks are divided into seven layers. The structure of the book follows the structure of the model to a considerable extent.'

Timor mortis conturbat me - Wikipedia Timor mortis conturbat me - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia 'Timor mortis conturbat me is a Latin phrase commonly found in late medieval English poetry. It can be translated into a number of different ways, most literally as "fear of death confounds me". However, a better translation in the context of the poetic usage of the phrase is "fear of death upsets me". Another looser translation is "I am scared to death of dying". The phrase comes from a responsory of the Catholic Office of the Dead, in the third Nocturn of Matins: Peccantem me quotidie, et non poenitentem, timor mortis conturbat me. Quia in inferno nulla est redemptio, miserere mei, Deus, et salva me. (Sinning daily, and not repenting, the fear of death disturbs me. Because there is no redemption in hell, have mercy on me, O God, and save me.)' back
