Here is a whimsical attempt to relate language, physics and life
with a punning poem with many different errors. Try reading it
in several different ways --- I tried to weave in many language
puns, some math, chemistry and physics, compsci, and stuff about fractals,
environmental problems and mental health. It sort of is related
to the evolution of language, the food/beer of the dominant part of the
brain, that which lies unused. I didn't put in any details,
except the naming game that led to the poem, but people can
doubtless find your own fractal takeoff points. Some comments
at the end. warm dark Flames (loves) by She-mail to >dal...@geop.ubc.ca<.
I don't want to force my late night views on anyone, but they should
freely cause

and it may have some structure looked at through a twist/mirror.


Quick metaphilosophical comments:
1. SETI --- the human race has not been contacted since we have our
arrow of time and entropy the wrong way around from the rest
of the universe, and are not in touch with the unused majority
of our brains. The few humans with the proper arrow of time
are the outcasts and mentally ill, whose numbers are increasing.
To us, society is ok but the universe is mad, to the rest of the
universe, we are mad and the universe (mostly dark matter)
is all ok.

2. There are two fractal threads that are intertwined, each with
a different arrow of time. One thread is the dark matter
portion, accessed during dreamtime, which is travelling
in reverse time. The other is that of light matter,
which is accessed during waking hours, and which we
are running down by "breathing" in the wrong direction.

Time for some sleep, then back to smaller di-fractall scales I hope.
I have more random notes if anyone wants them. Must learn pranayama.
