This is an interesting article. But my first reaction when I saw the email title was someone actually mentioning my long-ago pop/punk/dub band, The Scientific Americans (see: http://www.friend.ly.net/~dadadata/n_the/sci/sciams.html ). Add to that we were heavily influenced by the later works of P. K. Dick, including Valis (your nom de email), and I thought I was entering another instant of synchronicity...... for anyone who wants to read the article but didn't bother to cut and paste the wrap-around URL, try http://tinyurl.com/5kmcf At 01:51 PM 10/28/2004, Valis wrote: >http://www.sciam.com/article.cfm?% >20chanID=sa006&colID=1&articleID=0007D716-71A1-1179-AF8683414B7F0000
