I encountered the essence of my soul under the tree of knowledge but the instant it appeared I realized the difference in the two. I could only utter its profound meaning in an unknown language of the heart that I didn't really understand so I divided my self into halves and then quarters and then eighths. After I sat down with my selves I started having very interesting conversations with them. They all seemed to collaborate on the thought that you all know the answer but choose to ignore it. I laughed at the third eighth because he was so goofy and weird. I really didn't like the seventh eighth because he was too serious. This caused a small riot between us all and I took off and ran into a police car flying in the sky with the doors open. I saw a very tall woman and a short man standing on the car, The police car started to land and then I turned into a clown. I then laughed and played with balloons until they all popped. Interesting enough the sentence I was looking to belong too was lost with my other selves somewhere. So what self am I?

Here are the predictions of 2024 that did not make it: Peter Shor, David Deutsch and all the rest of the quantum computing community (various sources) Pablo Jarrillo Herrero, Allan McDonald and Rafi Bistritzer for magic angle in twisted graphene (various sources) Christoph...
Thread 'My experience as a hostage'
I believe it was the summer of 2001 that I made a trip to Peru for my work. I was a private contractor doing automation engineering and programming for various companies, including Frito Lay. Frito had purchased a snack food plant near Lima, Peru, and sent me down to oversee the upgrades to the systems and the startup. Peru was still suffering the ills of a recent civil war and I knew it was dicey, but the money was too good to pass up. It was a long trip to Lima; about 14 hours of airtime...
