[MD] Metabiology

I find it interesting you call Royce's System S dated Adrie.  Since most
commentary I've read on it by professional logicians and math minds has been
that it remains fascinating, but unexplored.  Classical music is also dated,
but for some reason we can't really replicate that kind of thinking
anymore.  Not enough attention span perhaps.

What really intrigued me was Royce's assertion to have defined the "logical
continuum" in such a way as to encapsulate rationality itself.  Running a
software program to infinite iteration of metabiological fitness within such
a space seems like a likely new avenue of exploration for AI programming to
me.

I'm probably off-base here, since math-mind and pro-logics are over my head
a bit.  But funny things sometimes get discovered by non-professionals just
jammin' stuff together to see what happens.  I think of a certain patent
clerk contemplating gravity and acceleration in his off-hours, and coming up
with some interesting theories.

I'm working on story right now, I think you'll like.

John back to his specialty
