II. Introduction

We’ll begin in a vacuum with

artificial tools. We’ll assume the big bang was

the origin of the universe and there was

nothing before it. Nothing will be

a substance on which to suspend years of facts.

A game show will turn into a sparkly thought experiment.

People are running around behind the set but

god knows what they’re doing.

Faced with three identical doors, you choose one.

Goats are hiding behind two doors and there’s a Mercedes

behind the other. Success with reality is the car.

But I will also try to love the stage lights.

And I will try to love the goats when I find them.

The hypothetical host reveals one of the losing doors.

You have to decide whether to change

remaining doors mid-game. The mysteries are in need of

continual rephrasing. After seeing a loss,

change is always a good idea.
