four event foci and their always and only coexisting fourness
of triangularly defined planar facets, and sixness of
wavilinearly defined minimum set of unique componentation
relatedness, unity is inherently plural. Unity is plural.
A system is a local phenomenon in the Universe. Each of the
conceivable or imaginable awareness or thinkability entities
or phenomena inducing or producing onenesses of twonesses are
subvisible and potentially further subdivisible, or as-yet
unresolved, ergo unrecognized systems. Functions always and
only co-occur as subsystem relativistics, characteristics,
inherencies, and proclivities. Functions occur only as parts
of systems.
The Universe is constituted of a complex
plurality of nonsimultaneous and only partially overlappingly
occurring systems, not one system."

"I actually feel very sorry for the politicians and pay very
little attention to them. I am impressed that when I talk
to the Russians, they said to me When President Johnson was in,
Johnson is really nearer to our kind of man but there's no
use in our meeting with him because any agreement we made with
Johnson, the Russians would never ratify. We can only deal
with Eepublicans if we're going to have anything that will stick.
I think this is very much the viewpoint of China and Russia;
they think there's no use in dealing with people who are in
anyway liberal. And I'm convinced that all the sovereign-
ties will have to go! That's clear. We will perish. They
were absolutely valid in terms of my roots here, projecting
our ignorance. But in terms of our discovering that the
metals are not part of the roots; they are very unevenly
distributed around the Earth. In order to be able to play
this new game it has to be World Game. All the boundaries
have to go.
Therefore, I simply say, one of the most difficult
of the great sovereignties to break up is the United States.
Particularly due to the fact that it is operating under a
misconception. It calls itself a nation. A nation is a group"

The two-axis universal joint, long known to man
and often employed by mechanics as a flexible membrane--
sandwiched between two diametrically opposed yoke-ended
shafts, with yoke planes symmetrically oriented at 90
degrees to one another-- constitute an octahedronal
tensegrity, but its shafted axes tend to make it appear
as a single-axis system."

its size. As such, it becomes a universal joint to couple

"The star radiations impinging upon us regenerate all life.
Even as children, we feel intuitively the mysterious import
of the stars; but have no knowledge whatsoever of the techno-

Most people live out their lives thinking of the stars only
as an aesthetic and not realistically-relevant, decorative
feature. 'Stargazers are nuts.' Each human as a metaphysical
complex of events, recalls deduced principles and speculative
assumption. Events impinge upon individuals from both outside
and inside themselves. Those of internal microcosmic origin
usually impinge subconsciously. Most of those of external
macrocosmic origin also impinge subconsciously.
"The environmental events come in all kinds of frequencies and
magnitudes-- 99 percent are sensorially unapprehendable by
humans. Comprehensive anticipatory design scientists, dealing
on behalf of their fellow humans, must cope effectively with
all these frequencies visible and invisible.

that means with the data of experiments and not with assured axioms
predicated only upon the misleading nature of that which only
superficially seems to be obvious. It is the consensus of
thought of those who have proven themselves to be great
scientists that 'science is the earnest attempt to set in order
the facts of experience.' Holding within their definition, we
define Universe as: the aggregate of all humanity's consciously
apprehended and communicated, nonsimultaneous and only
partially overlapping experiences. But all experiences are
terminated, ergo, finite, An aggregatem of finites is finite.
Our Universe as defined is finite but nonsimulteously conceptual.
The single-frame picture of a caterpillar does not foretell its
transformation into a butterfly. Nor does one picture of a
butterfly tell the viewer that the butterfly san fly. Universe
as defined is a scenario. Those who ask 'what is outside
Universe?' are asking a single- picture question which is as
ignorant as asking 'which word is the dictionary.' Summarizing,
Universe is a finite but non-simultaneously conceptual scenario."

of patterns. In order to have a monkey wrench you also

have to have other things. You have to have all the great

complementary events where the system then regenerates itself
and we come to what we might call universe. it is interesting
then to discover that this tends to be a clearly defined

"... What is going on with the cities, all the physical has
gone out, the metaphysical coming in-- it is not just
exchanging of goods, as for instance, the mammoth stores
beginning to deploy also, to get where there could be some
good parking by going out of town to the new shopping centers,
leaving a downtown hole. Into that center must come the
educational centers. This is what is happening in New York
City, for instance. New York City is becoming a vast
university, where Columbia owns all of Radio City-- it owns
much of that part of the real estate of New York. Then
New York University owns all Washington Square and going
south of that. We simply find New York tending to become
a big dormitory University, though it has different names,
this is it. And much of this University is not the enrolled
student,
but just the adult or even the young coming in to
find out what it is all about, to have some experiences.
There is no question about the major part of our education
being something that occurs outside of the organized

Tetrahelix:
"It takes just ten triple-bonded tetrahedra to make a helix
cycle, which is a molecular compounding characteristic of the
Watson-Crick model of the DNA. When we address two or more
positive (or two or more negative) tetrahelixes together, the
positives nestle their angling forms into one another (as do
the negatives nestle into one another's forms). When so
nestled, the tetrahedra are grouped in local clusters of five
tetrahedra around a transverse axis in the tetrahelix nestling
columns. Because the dihedral angles of five tetrahedra are
7° 20° short of 360°, this 7° 20' is sprung-closed by the
helix structures' spring contraction. This backed-up spring
tries constantly to unzip one nestling tetrahedron from the
other, or others, of which it is a true replica. These are
direct (theoretical) explanations of otherwise as yet unex-
plained behavior of the of the DNA."

Unzipping Angle:
Tetrahelix:
"We see three such columns [tetrahelixes] and we see they
tend to nest into one another. If you make three of them
they do nest very neatly, but when they nest together they
bring about a condition where around one vertex-- if they are
really nested down well-- we get five tetrahedra around one
common axis. We know that if we take a tetrahedron that
its edge angle is 70 degrees and 32 minutes and five times
that is about six degrees less than 360 degrees. In other
words, five tetrahedra round a common edge axis do not close
up and make 360 degrees, but when we bring them together in
a helix like this-- due to the fact that the helix is a
spring, the total helix as a spring will contract enough to
allow these five to connect, because part of the five are in
one column and part of the five in another column. The sets
of springs will collapse enough; and no matter how long they
are we find that these springs will collapse and let them
come together. You are doing it against the spring and they
are on the spring so therefore they would like to tear it
apart.

with plane geometry. This is because geometry was conceived
and methodically formulated in history during the early times
when humanity envisioned the world as a mountained and
valleyed island floating upon an infinitely deep watery plane
which extended laterally in all horizontal directions to
infinity. Above everywhere was the sky. But the experience
of remotely converging lines of perspective suggested
reflexively to man that an optical aberration existed whereby,
though you could not see that far, all the upward bound
parallel lines perpendicular to Earth must ultimately
converge, as do all parallels, receding from where one stands.
"The parallel up lines were assumed to converge in Heaven--
a haven a sky harbor. Until the twentieth century humanity,
all those separate individuals within their respective life-
times, each saw less than a millionth of the total surface of
our spherical space vehicle Earth. All the foregoing
conceptioning is so logical that, despite theoretical know-
ledge to the contrary and their quick denial of such mis-
