  • I spent the night reading Book 2 of a trilogy by Neale Donald Walsch, Conversations With GOD.  The first book had a profound effect upon my person.  I read things in that book that I have always felt or known, but was never able to put into an idea or form or tell you where they came from.  I also understood what it was about the number 3 that has always captivated me when I read Conversations With GOD Book 1.


    3 is a magical number.


    For several years I used to do math in my head, non-stop, adding, subtracting, multiplying, dividing....any numbers that I came across, I was obsessed with trying to make numbers into a 3.  I was always twisting numbers around in my head quickly, without any concern for their original form.....License plates, bills, serial numbers, phone numbers, room numbers, any number that I came across had to be twisted and split so I could comfort myself with the number 3.  It was an obsession, and on occassion, I still do twist numbers around to make a 3, just not as frequently.  I will always set my alarm to a number that adds up to 3 though, I don't think I could ever stop doing that, it is too ingrained.


    I don't think I'm crazy, not anymore.  I hardly obsess with the making of 3 these days, well.....maybe only a few times a day.  Now, if I can only figure out what 11:11 means I will have an epiphany.


    I just realized Tuesday is the 3rd of the week.


    This one will be easy.


    02/20/01= 3 because (2+2=4-1=3or (2x2=4-1=3)


    Oh Good, today is a double 3 day!

  • let me help y0u by using Bo0lean algebra in a base2 numeric system:

    11:11

    11 in binary representation is 10112
    => therefore we have 3 bits set for each 11.
    => 10112:10112
    => each number can be represented by its digits w,x,y,z & w',x',y',z'

    The following boolean formula will yield 00112 which is 3!

    (w XOR w') + (x OR x') + (y OR y') + (z OR z') = 00112 once all outputs are accounted for. So there we have it: 00112 = 310.

    Unfortunately I was too lazy to apply any Karnaugh optimizati0ns. I hope this will help with your epiphany. :-)

  • friggin' hell! apparently the html sub tag doesn't work here!!! In my ab0ve post you have to imagine all the "2"'s subscripted. same with the 10. so 1011 base 2 is 11 and 0011 base 2 is equivalent to 3 base 10. I ap0logize for any confusion this may have caused.

What?

I AM still paranoid,
though reasons changed.
I'm paranoid that they'll figure out the language
and patterns of
me,
and I'll forget to rea

ange.

Then I'll just be textbook.
