Except here the event is a pole on       the spaceship hitting a pole a planet. The destruction of the poles       are then the triggers for a measurement. Validating this class.              Now how infer relative ages abstractly? My intuition is a simple       concept exists that is obvious after the fact.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
