"I began to play a game of looking at relative total abundances of various patterns in various systems and looking at a daisy and looking at a tortoise and looking at a waste basket, I find that the relative abundance of the fundamental patterns called chemical elements vary quite greatly. I sort of began to play a game of relative abundance because this is a nice 100 per cent game and that is the kind of game that the physicist learned to do so ably as a synergetic capability because he was always dealing in 100 per cent. Remember that when he had an unknown percentage showing in an experiment, that is what gave him his clue to meson or whatever it might be. I found it very interesting to look at the total pattern man.
