Heh...I just got to that part in the book. You know I just can't figure out if I am Pris, the Chickenhead, Rick or Iran. Iran of course is sitting at home having a preprogrammed self accusatory depression. Given the shape of the characters in this book, I am hoping I am Iran.
So, I have a baby. I understand you are supposed to talk really nice and listen to classical music and have eternal patience and understanding. You will have to forgive me because my mom chain smoked, was (is) pretty self centered and yells a lot.
I keep trying to get the movie Blade Runner, but it is mysteriously missing from everywhere I go. Everybody (freaky X files nerd like people with feathered hair)keeps telling me, "You know the scenes at the end of the original of the scenery below the car is used in The Shining, at the beginning, when they are driving up to the hotel. You know when the time is right (sometimes it is 22 past the hour, sometimes it is 11 past the hour and sometimes it is 32 past the hour. This morning it was 32 pastthe hour. I don't know what that means) things just come to me sometimes. I have yet to be neglected something necessary. It is eery, but I am getting used to it. That makes me feel like the Chickenhead.
The calculus stuff...I have to go back and look at the books, but it has to do with in what order you employ the visual lesson. You can change somebodies mind by linking a sequence of montages in series. So if you start with the first episode and visually communicate a different lesson in each episode, by the end of the series the audience will be conviced of something new (propaganda) or will have been exposed to a knew concept made up of different elements. Like sections in a academic chapter. There is a function in calculus. Actually, I think it is the definition of calculus. The number in the series is determined by the number of slices of the function.
I can't believe you are one of THEM. To them I am an android, to us they are androids. I guess to compete you have to play the game. The problem is assimilation and acculturation. Androids have been assimilated. Americans often acculturate themselves as a courtesy.
