No, no, no . . . no. Probability is only a means of analysis. Randomness only describes the lack of uniformity. The infinitely branching universe between observations is only a means of analysis. Have you been reading " The Mind's I " lately or something? ALSO, I never said that a continuous function HAD to be linear. The ability to communicate is apparent in everything. Period. The characteristics of free will are apparent in everything. Period. States are a means of simplifying analysis. " Things should be made as simple as possible, but no simpler. " - Einstein In order for you to believe that the universe decomposes to a specific small element, and no further, you also have to believe that time is bounded. Now, I'm not saying that what Einstein has said has to be taken as indisputable truth, only that it should not be dismissed so easily. The theory of relativity and all of Einstein's work are amongst the first things to be attacked in Psychological Warfare. There are many who would like YOU to believe that the universe is one huge gigantic brain. *CRIPES* John.
