    If I encounter two men on the road, laughing, walking or both, how shall I determine the dead man from the other, as you raise the question?
    I we were to use The Phantom as the reference, apparently the good guys are the dead ones! LOL

    Hmmmmm.......attempting to explore the avenue of the male sense of humor, as the question which I responded to was not logical.

    Now further complicated by the response from a second male, employing a concept and logical progression from a concept, which does not aid the case.

    Conclusion: There is no useful response save this observation made.

    Re: speed of excellence

    "Deadman walking" is an outlawed phrase announced by a warden for a death row prisoner on the way to be executed. It implies that crimes against humanity do not pay unless paid by one's own life. So, the joke is on the person who committed a crime and think to get away with it. "Deadman laughing" can be used for a deadbed person who had fulfilled lifelong humanitarian efforts to help others who truly need them. So, the joke is on the helpless who think help can last forever. Compassion is an act of communication directly from the mind but whether thoughts can move faster than light is debatable. However, mental states of dream can move easily back to the past as well as toward the future.

    The observable and experienced state of recalling the past and contemplating in the mind, a procession of possible futures as an aid in decision making, has likely been the muse for many science fiction tales of time travel and parallel universes.

    Yet, the though ever plays at the edge of my mind......how and where can such concepts arise, as the mind, requires data in order to compare, reconstruct and reconfigure.

    Is the mind capable of creating that which does not or cannot exist?

    How would we make such a determination?

    Do we truly understand the mechanism and vehicle of 'thought' beyond our latest ability to image at least some of the most basic activity in the brain?

    Re: speed of excellence

    Science might eventually understand the mechanism of thoughts but last night my dream dictated to me that everything comes in pair and that a theory of everything is really a theory of finding the perfect pair. I'm now trying to expand this idea into a new thread called "pairing excellence."

    Perhaps zero and infinity, the same vacant ends of non-existence, produce the finite singularity of existence.
