interpretation and translation

To Whose Name I Cannot Reproduce (lacking the character set):


You need not reproduce it, only copy it... Alas, Microsoft is one of those immutables that, sadly, is a constant... no matter where the current of events takes us from here.

There can be much in a name, some of it written, some of it interpreted.

It seems you will have been reading here for a while [pardon the mangled tenses], possibly from an archive... You will be certain to have learned that attitudes in HZ have heretofore been generally timeline specific.


It is true that I do drop by 'this' zone- from time to time. If I have trangressed the rules of the current Current Events, I am sorry. I do not have the luxury of being 'timeline specific'.

The "past" you revealed of that future is still seven months in our future. Can you, or anyone, be sure that this is not one of the lines in which those events will have been avoided?


I can only be certain that at this time the events I related are a VERY possible future. I cannot be certain that the 'you' reading this 7 months from now will be the 'you' that will experience the events I originally posted.

The past at a given moment in time cannot be changed, and the future can never be predicted. All that one can do is observe some of the futures that WILL take place. Perhaps an illustration will help?

When you moved my post you made a choice- human choice is, fundamentally, a quantum phenomenon- impossible to predict. That choice created a fork in the current of events; a current in which you moved my post, and current in which you did not. I have travelled both of these current and have seen them both possibly result in the events I decribed. I posted my post, (and the post removed by your friend the Belgian nut ;-) ), with both possible currents taken into account.

You have no doubt noticed that by moving my post you detroyed my link to a future post I made. You will now re-read my original post and see that by moving it you have caused another link to a then future post to now be valid.

You have a saying in your current vernacular: 'Looking backward allows you to see events clearer'- Do you see better now, my old friend?

There are infinite forks- in some curiosity will move you destroy that second link as well, in others the owner of the zone will delete these threads out of an overly paranoid fear of security...

I have just noticed that I already will have left you another little hint on community- I hid it too well I think... oh well, you will find it. :)

If you seek to make this one of those timelines, by forewarning, why choose the Habitable Zone?


Call it a statistical study of important variables, with infinite currents to choose from, it is possible to change infinite variables and see which ones are truly important.

I hope to identify the 'threads' in this tapestry that make the pattern.
