To Chuck – From Barnita With Love

Chuck:
War just pisses people off (idiomatic expression,) and causes them to seek revenge, which only perpetuates the cycle.

Barnita and Sanhita Bhandari:
The game of life is the game of boomerangs. Our thoughts, deeds and words return to us sooner or later, with astounding accuracy........Florence Shinn

Doomed to war?

Name: Again

physicist, born in the land of the poets and thinkers, knowing how information coins information processing systems and how information processing systems coin information - i had to become a philosopher. Because me and you, our bodies, our souls, our families and nations, our cultures and our companies are nothing else than information processing systems.

And then, one Thursday, nearly two thousand years after one man had been nailed to a tree for saying how great it would be to be nice to people for a change, one girl sitting on her own in a small cafe in Rickmansworth suddenly realized what it was that had been going wrong all this time, and she finally knew how the world could be made a good and happy place. This time it was right, it would work, and no one would have to get nailed to anything. Sadly, however, before she could get to a phone to tell anyone about it, a terribly stupid catastrophe occurred, and the idea was lost forever.
This is not her story.

The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
Introduction
by Douglas Adams ©

The definition of information as set of repeatable behavior of a given object is not only valuable for explaining existing knowledge, but doesn't exclude future knowledge.
If a witch would come and would be able to show, that witchcraft works, it would be "information" as Newtons law are.
Why? Because if something works, it works every time, you use it. If witchcraft would work, the witch would be able to get the same result whenever she would use her tricks.

So never say: "that can't be true, that is impossible."
Say: "Show me...
again."

A public school teacher was arrested today at John F. Kennedy International Airport as he attempted to board a flight while in possession of a ruler, a protractor, a set square, a slide rule and a calculator.

At a morning press conference, Attorney General Alberto Gonzalez said he believes the man is a member of the notorious Al-gebra movement. He did not identify the man, who has been charged by the FBI with carrying weapons of math instruction.

"Al-gebra is a problem for us," Gonzales said. "They desire solutions by means and extremes, and sometimes go off on tangents in a search of absolute value. They use secret code names like 'x' and 'y' and refer to themselves as 'unknowns', but we have determined they belong to a common denominator of the axis of medieval with coordinates in every country. As the Greek philanderer Isosceles used to say, 'There are 3 sides to every triangle'."

Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld backed up the Attorney General's words. "Al-gebra is really a problem for us. One of the worst beliefs of this group is that they want their women to greatly multiply."

When asked to comment on the arrest, President Bush said, "If God had wanted us to have better weapons of math instruction, He would have given us more fingers and toes."

Florida Governor and the president's brother Jeb Bush, no stranger counts and recounts himself had no comment.

White House aides told reporters they could not recall a more intelligent or profound statement by the president...

ever.
