      "body": "TL;DR\n\nThe argument boils down to:\n\n[Joy Reid's timestamp](https://twitter.com/JoyAnnReid/status/950197165883842560)  = 02:47:12Z\n[Qanon's timestamp](https://8ch.net//thestorm/res/19861.html#20558) = 03:05:50Z\n\nJoy Reid's tweet, containing a screenshot of Trump's \"consensual\" tweet, was *after* [Trump's \"consensual\" tweet](https://projects.propublica.org/politwoops/tweet/950190674661511168).  Hence, Qanon's drop was *after* Trump's \"consensual\" tweet.  Moreover, as the intent of that Qanon drop was to demonstrate foreknowledge of  POTUS's \"consensual\" tweet, this demonstrates Qanon's intent, in that drop, was to deceive patriots.\n\nEnd TL;DR\n\nOne of the strongest pieces of evidence that Qanon is authentic is the following:\n\n![goodwinexhibit.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmX2waLYLyWugtTJxqifYBvSSpVhvCcppUXigZjVvXsovv/goodwinexhibit.jpg)\n\nTo see why this *apparently* demonstrates Qanon is authentic, first correct the \"10:05\" to \"10:06\".   \n\nThis change is entirely justified because  Qanon's drop was at \"22:05:50\" (10:05:50 PM) and is most reasonably rounded to the next minute (10:06 PM).\n\nNow, notice there are *two* 15 minute intervals:\n\n1. from [Qanon's post](https://8ch.net//thestorm/res/19861.html#20558), at 6 minutes after the hour, to POTUS's first tweet, at 21 minutes after the hour\n2. from POTUS's first tweet at 21 minutes after the hour to [his second tweet](https://media-cdn.factba.se/realdonaldtrump-twitter/950194495223730176.jpg) at 36 minutes after the hour.\n\nThese *two* 15 minute intervals deserve attention given the '\\[15\\]' and 'when' in Qanon's post.  \n\n*If* the times are comparable (same timezone), this demonstrates Qanon has control over the timing of POTUS's tweets.\n\nTo make the times comparable, we convert to the global standard: Greenwich Mean Time (GMT aka UTC aka Z aka +0 time):\n\n[Qanon's post](https://8ch.net//thestorm/res/19861.html#20558)'s Z time is available by inspecting source.  \n\n![QanonGoodwinPostUTC.PNG](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmUfMiGpqEnBNrV89piPJNr3ospAaDcDNfD931Z9pDz6We/QanonGoodwinPostUTC.PNG)\n\nQanon's timestamp = 03:05:50Z\n\nUnfortunately, Trump's tweet is deleted so we can't find its timezone directly.\n\nFortunately, there is another way to determine if Qanon's post was before or after Trump's tweet.  \n\nTake, for example, [Joy Reid's tweet](https://twitter.com/JoyAnnReid/status/950197165883842560)  that contains a screenshot of Trump's \"consensual\" tweet:\n\n![WaPoTrumpTweetTimeStamp.PNG](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmbDYx9QJpEoqqfJVccEdUDDJCWmxhvf2VDY6BGjpXi132/WaPoTrumpTweetTimeStamp.PNG)\n\nClearly, Joy Reid's tweet was *after* Trump's \"consensual\" tweet.  If  Qanon's drop, was *after* Joy Reid's tweet, then Qanon's drop was *after* Trump's \"consensual\" tweet.\n\nSo we have to go to [Joy Reid's tweet](https://twitter.com/JoyAnnReid/status/950197165883842560) and derive its Z time from source:\n\n![JoyReidconsensualtweet.PNG](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmbnmdnxvAmxA83enXeyrYaXqoEwpPinQMA8kuDKGrax6i/JoyReidconsensualtweet.PNG)\n  \nThe \"date-time\" is the \"epoch\" timezone which can be [converted to Z time with an online service](https://www.epochconverter.com/timezones?q=1515379632&tz=Europe%2FLondon).  Here's that conversion:  \n\n![JoyReidconsensualtweetZtime.PNG](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmbAyomgt7djFBUk9BkN1ZQoLRp9Yi1cowTSfeqL1K6JEh/JoyReidconsensualtweetZtime.PNG)\n\nJoy Reid's timestamp = 02:47:12Z\nQanon's timestamp     = 03:05:50Z\n\nJoy Reid's tweet beat Qanon's post by 19 minutes!\n\nWe may now safely conclude that Qanon's post was after [Trump's second tweet](https://media-cdn.factba.se/realdonaldtrump-twitter/950194495223730176.jpg).\n\nSo Qanon's drop was engineered to deceive patriots into believing they had just witnessed decisive evidence that Qanon had control of the timing of Trump's tweet.\n\nI seriously doubt you'll find a quicker and, mercifully, easier to validate Qanon kill shot than this article.  \n\nPlease surprise me.",

      "body": "The vast majority of people don't have the time to go through the vast offerings of evidence and arguments regarding the Qanon phenomenon.  This is even ignoring the fact that, while panning for gold, or even fools gold, such evidence and arguments are embedded very low grade polemical ore.  All too often, the result of much panning is nothing but tailings:  \n\n\"That's not gold.  That's not even fool's gold!\"\n\nWell, Mr. Normie, take heart!  Help is at hand!\n\nOne simple exhibit, adequately assayed, is iron pyrite ore of such high grade that it can only be someone [salting the river bed](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salting_(confidence_trick)).  The target of this disinformation?  As you'll see, it is the hapless normie, even if moderately interested, possessing a reasonably open mind both pro and con Qanon, and moderate determination to get at the truth of the matter. \n\nWe're about to  put the Qanon LARP out of its misery quickly and mercifully.\n\nReady?\n\nHere's the high grade ore:\n\n![goodwinexhibit.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmX2waLYLyWugtTJxqifYBvSSpVhvCcppUXigZjVvXsovv/goodwinexhibit.jpg)\n\nThe trick to keeping it simple for the hapless normie is to focus on the timestamps -- correcting the \"10:05\" to \"10:06\" because \"22:05:50\" is most reasonably rounded to the next minute.\n\nNote the **two** 15 minute gaps:\n\n1. from [Qanon's post](https://8ch.net//thestorm/res/19861.html#20558) to POTUS's first (now deleted) tweet, and \n2. from POTUS's first tweet to his second\n\nThese are obviously deserving attention given the '\\[15\\]' and 'when' in Qanon's post.  \n\nThis *potentially* cuts off, at the waist, all possibilities that Qanon is a LARP except one:\n\nThe supposed \"LARPers\" must be able to go into [8ch.net](https://8ch.net) and modify timestamps on Qanon's posts.  \n\nIt is this *potential* clarification that can interest the hapless, time-limited normie enough to invest in the next step:  \n\nVerify the timestamps are the same timezone.\n\nSo, to make the timestamps comparable, we convert to GMT aka UTC aka Z (+0):\n\n[Qanon's post](https://8ch.net//thestorm/res/19861.html#20558)'s Z time is available by inspecting source.  \n\n![QanonGoodwinPostUTC.PNG](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmUfMiGpqEnBNrV89piPJNr3ospAaDcDNfD931Z9pDz6We/QanonGoodwinPostUTC.PNG)\n\nQanon's timestamp = 03:05:50Z\n\nBut what is Trump's post's Z timestamp?  His post is deleted!  \n\nFortunately, there are lots of folks who like catching Trump in typos, so there are archives of Trump's deleted tweets around.  For example, there's [one at Factbase](https://factba.se/topic/deleted-tweets) and another a [ProPublica](https://projects.propublica.org/politwoops/tweet/950190674661511168). \n\nUnfortunately, these archives don't keep the original source, containing timestamp data.  To make matters more confusing, Factbase even misleadingly displays \"ET\" as the timezone without specifying EST or EDT.  This kind of seductive confusion actually got me thinking this exhibit might be the the one I was looking for.  Properly motivated, I started vetting it for the normie's concise and incisive guide to reducing the Qanon confusion.\n\nWhen I did, however, I discovered that the folks jumping all over Trump's miswording had Z times on their tweets **prior** to the Z time for Qanon's post!  Here's one prominent example I found through the Washington Post article reveling in Trump's miswording of \"consequential\" as \"consensual\":\n\n![WaPoTrumpTweetTimeStamp.PNG](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmbDYx9QJpEoqqfJVccEdUDDJCWmxhvf2VDY6BGjpXi132/WaPoTrumpTweetTimeStamp.PNG)\n\nSo we have to go to [Joy Reid's tweet](https://twitter.com/JoyAnnReid/status/950197165883842560) and derive its Z time from source:\n\n![JoyReidconsensualtweet.PNG](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmbnmdnxvAmxA83enXeyrYaXqoEwpPinQMA8kuDKGrax6i/JoyReidconsensualtweet.PNG)\n  \nThe \"date-time\" is the \"epoch\" timezone which can be [converted to Z time with an online service](https://www.epochconverter.com/timezones?q=1515379632&tz=Europe%2FLondon).  Here's that conversion:  \n\n![JoyReidconsensualtweetZtime.PNG](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmbAyomgt7djFBUk9BkN1ZQoLRp9Yi1cowTSfeqL1K6JEh/JoyReidconsensualtweetZtime.PNG)\n\nJoy Reid's timestamp = 02:47:12Z\nQanon's timestamp     = 03:05:50Z\n\nSo, Joy Reid's tweet beat Qanon's post by 19 minutes!  \n\nMany others were immediately  jumping with glee to dance on Trump's misworded tweet with similar timestamps.\n\nWe are now at the stage where it is clear Qanon has very unambiguously deceived those who are looking for evidence of  authenticity.  Indeed, the more clear and concise this exhibit is in supporting Qanon's authenticity (ignoring the timezone shift) the more clear and concise is this exhibit in exposing Qanons motives.  What is more, this exhibit was initially attractive to me precisely because of its apparent high concentration of ore.  And, indeed, it *is* a high concentration of ore:  Iron pyrite ore of such high grade that it could only reasonably be attributed to someone salting the river bed with fools gold.\n\nI seriously doubt you'll find a quicker and more merciful Qanon kill shot than this article.  \n\nPlease surprise me.",

      "body": "The Rise and Fall of Midwest Computing Sans PLATO\n\nThis is a great book. It conveys much of the flavor of what it was like to be in the Midwest's computing culture in its heyday of the 60's through the 70's. What it failed to do was tell the real story of the Midwest's demise as computing leader of the world -- which isn't the story of Seymour's obsession with packaging rather than on-chip integration, as implied by this book.  Rather it is the story of the failure to deploy the network revolution, now embodied in the Internet, to the mass-market 20 years early on Seymour's matured hardware via the PLATO networking project at Control Data Corporation.  PLATO was a $1 billion (1970s) 'bet the company' investment by Bill Norris, the farmer/CEO of CDC who put a windmill pump from his Nebraska farm in front of CDC's corporate towers to remind people where they came from.  That is the story of epic proportions only grazed on by this book. PLATO was ready to go to mass market, but Wall Street combined with classic middle mismanagement killed the mass market version of PLATO before it could even be test marketed -- for which it was ready.  Had it gone otherwise, Seymour probably would never have left the Midwest, and his supercomputer architecture would have focused more on the directions taken by Sun and Hewlett Packard -- except with Seymour's inimitable qualities.\n\nI personally worked with the PLATO project and tested a version of it that would have leased a network computer with Macintosh-like interface, including network service, for a flat rate of $40/month with capital payback in 3 years. It had everything -- email, conferencing, user-programmable electronic commerce, multiuser real-time graphics games not to mention thousands of hours of computer based education courseware for which the PLATO system was originally designed. We could get this performance because the culture surrounding the land grant colleges of the Midwest, such as the University of Illinois where PLATO originated, combined with Seymour's astounding performance levels created the right tradeoffs between hardware/software. Some of us were looking forward to incorporating Seymour's newly marketed Cray-1 as the foundation for the next generation of mass-market PLATO system. Initial benchmarks looked to provide an outstanding bang for the buck as an information utility hub -- even without some of the more obvious architectural optimizations that would help in this new kind of application of his systems. This would have shielded Seymour from the vagaries of the government-dominated supercomputer market and driven his architectures into higher levels of silicon integration faster. This, in turn possibly providing the kind of capital in the kind of organization that could have delivered on gallium arsenide's potential, unlike the disaster that occurred when Seymour left his farm and went cheek-to-cheek with the military in Colorado Springs, CO.\n\nThe Internet Explorer web browser was based on the NCSA Mosaic web browser developed at the University of Illinois -- right across the street from where PLATO was invented.  This was no fluke. PLATO had a profound impact on the culture of the University of Illinois particularly its young students who wanted to push the envelope in networking. The NCSA also gave rise the most widely used web server, Apache, and the the founders of Netscape. The loss of possibly 20 years of 'new economy' is incalculable, but suffice to say, comparable losses have been suffered as the result of open war.\n\nThere are a lot of anecdotes this book doesn't tell that will probably die with the people who lived the tale. Just one, to capture a bit of what will be lost to history:\n\nPeople looking for Cray Research's facility in the fields of Wisconsin could drive up to a farm house and ask where 'Cray Research' was located and a friendly neighbor would say, 'Oh, you mean Seymour's place...' and then give directions to an area surrounded by an almost invisible network of intelligence agency surveillance equipment -- protecting what was seen as a national treasure from potential espionage. In a speech to one of these agencies, Seymour told them they could come out and protect his folks but only if they never got in the way, and that meant not even letting anyone know they were around. Well, you could tell they were around, but at least they didn't get in the way!",

At that point they'll do something to reinstate holmganga; even if in an \"underground\" sense.\n\nImagine this scenario:\n\nA young Icelandic man, we'll call \"Erik the Younger\", deprived of a mate, with nothing to look forward to in the future but jerking off to internet porn, has the ancestry of Erik the Red. He,with 2 of his friends, enters a nightclub in Reykjavik and sees the above scene. Unlike most Icelandic young men, who have a sinking feeling at such a sight, this young man, rather than jerking off to internet porn, has been encountering interesting ideas on the internet -- such as [posts by Jim Bowery going back for 20 some years](https://majorityrights.com/weblog/comments/seven_points_of_agreement_between_individuals/) in which Mr. Bowery has, many times, discussed holmganga as the appeal of last resort in dispute processing in the old Norse law. In accord with this alternative education about his culture, Erik the Younger walks up to the \"refugee\":\n\n**Erik**: *I see you're enjoying our famous Norse hospitality and beautiful women. Do you mind if I have a talk with you? Your life is in imminent danger.*\n\n**Refugee**: *Whoa! That's not very hospitable!*\n\n**Erik**: *On the contrary, I want to share with you a bit of our Icelandic culture, since you have obviously been deceived. It is only fair for a host to inform guests of the house rules and, unfortunately, you have been mislead by a false host: The Icelandic Government. The Icelandic Government had no business acting as your host.*\n\n**Refugee**: *I think you should argue with the authorities about that.*\n\n**Erik**: *What you call \"the authorities\" lost that authority long ago. So, are you interested in why your life is in danger or do you wish to simply die?*\n\n**Refugee**: *Well, my friend, I suppose I should hear your story. Sit down.*\n\n**Erik**: *Thank you.*\n\n(The girls are getting uncomfortable, experiencing conflicting emotions and it shows.)\n\n**Refugee**: *Would you like a drink? It's on me.*\n\n**Erik**: *No thanks. What I have to say is sobering and should be related by someone who is sober.*\n\n(Refugee picks up drink and sips with a slight smirk.)\n\n**Erik**: (smirks back) *Our women are so beautiful because, for over 10,000 years, our culture killed men who were who were weak or dishonorable by permitting any man to challenge any other man to fight to the death in an isolated wilderness -- hunting each other as they would prey. Those men who would not accept a challenge would be declared a Nīþ.*\n\n**Refugee**: *What is a \"Nīþ\"? And what has this to do with the beauty of these girls?*\n\n**Erik**: *You will find out what a Nīþ is presently, but first I want to explain their beauty, which is more than skin deep.*\n\n(The girls are now having differing reactions: cynical contempt, wide-eyed wonder and burning hatred.)\n\n**Erik**: *Our men tended to hunt alone with their barely-domesticated wolf packs and had a very high mortality rate due to the dangers of winter hunting, sometimes hunting each other, one on one (with their packs), over hunting ground rights. Since a man in this climate can support no more than one mate and her children, and there were so few men, women had to vie with each other for the few good men who were able to survive. These men favored women of beauty, strength and character, for many hundreds of generations. When we became farmers, this was disrupted so we found it necessary to formalize natural duel in our old laws.*\n\n**Refugee**: *In Africa, there are many men and women choose but a few, which is why your women and our men are natural mates!*\n\n(He smiles and the girls smile.)\n\n**Erik**: *Our opinions differ on this. So, we have a dispute! And now has come the moment of truth. Get your hands off those girls and leave Iceland.*\n\nThe girls, having been educated by Hollywood movies to graduate from JudeoChristianity to Holocaustianity and its belief in Jews as the Innocent Victims of the World Bringing Light Unto the Nations, as well as seeing African men as subjected to abuse by \"white\" men due to slavery etc., begin laying into Erik the Younger for his \"racism\". One of them starts quoting from the latest movie about blacks living under Jim Crow laws. Another of them grabs the \"refugee\" by the crotch and, sneering at \"Erik the Younger\", tells him he must have a small dick -- which is why he's such a \"Nazi\". etc.\n\nErik the Younger smiles placidly at the girls and and then continues to look straight in the eyes of the \"refugee\" -- deadly serious.\n\nThe \"refugee\" knows that if Erik the Younger does anything violent, several bouncers will grab Erik the Younger he'll be thrown in prison by the JudeoChristian, er, I mean Holocaustian authorities of Iceland. Safe in the knowledge there is nothing Erik the Younger can do, the \"refugee\" tries to calm his girls down and even offer one of them to Erik the Younger -- as pimps do for their \"friends\" named \"John\". But Erik the Younger, remembering what Jim Bowery told him, doesn't accept the bribe.\n\n**Erik**: *Since you will not unhand these girls and leave Iceland, I hope you are enough of a man of honor to meet me 3 days from now, on the Sutsey Island, each of us equipped with blade not to exceed 25cm and 15m of strong cordage -- you entering from the Syrtlingur side of the island and I from the Jolnir side of the island. One of us, at most, will leave. My friends will assure that both of us are equally equipped, and will transport us to our respective sides of the island. No observers -- no \"seconds\" as in code duello -- no one but you and I and the Goðs. The survivor, if one there be, will also be equipped with rescue flare to call to be returned to the mainland. If either of us does not show for departure to Sutsey at the appointed time and place, he will be declared a Nīþ. Anyone may kill a Nīþ in any manner at any time without incurring dishonor. If one of us calls to be rescued but the other is still alive, that coward will be declared a Nīþ.*\n\nThe girls and \"refugee\" then report the \"Nazi gang threat\" to the authorities who come to question Erik the Younger and his friends -- who deny everything -- but word gets around to other young men in Iceland.\n\nLater, the \"refugee\" turns up missing.\n\nNo one can prove anything.\n\nOther young men in Iceland start making a similar challenge -- not all relying on the same natural wilderness area so as to avoid being caught defending their honor. World wide news agencies pick up on the \"Resurgence of Naziism in Iceland\", and try to make it appear gangs of Icelandic men are roving around killing refugees 'seeking a better life in Iceland'. However, the internet news feeds provide details of the procedure called \"Natural Duel\" described by Bowery as a substitute for the murky history of \"Holmganga\" recorded by JudeoChristian monks. Other young men in Scandinavia begin pursuing the same remedy.\n\nAs the \"authorities\" start cracking down on these \"Nazis\", they, too, are issued challenges to Natural Duel by the young men that the \"authorities\" are throwing into prisons to be raped by HIV-infected gangs of \"refugees\" for \"Hate\".\n\nTo be continued, but you can see where this is leading...",

They submit a bid to the government for each such citizen.  The low-bid is identified.  The citizen chooses their primary care physician once a year.  That physician receives the low-bid for that citizen for that year.  The citizen pays, out of pocket, any difference between the low-bid and the amount demanded by their chosen primary care physician.  If the citizen makes no choice, the primary care physician making the low bid is assigned to that citizen.  States are required to identify citizens who are their citizens.\n\nIt is then up to the selected physician to establish what amounts to a private practice patronizing the free market on behalf of the citizens choosing them.  \n\nIt is up to the States to ensure licensed primary care physicians are competent to meet the challenges of a free market on behalf of the citizens in their care.  All healthcare market regulation is at the State level.  For instance, States may choose to ignore or enforce FDA approvals of treatments, but the FDA's approvals have no other force of law.  The Constitutional role of regulating interstate commerce is restricted to ensuring unimpeded through-passage, including people, goods and information.\n\nFree market competition between health care infrastructure and service providers for primary physician patronage will reduce the cost of healthcare and ameliorate the need for additional taxes.\n\n*The definition of \"community\", such as geographic extent, is to be established by the States licensing the physicians.",

These included the late Silas Warner’s \"airace\" which spawned <a HREF=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XNqO3eDXYrg\">\"airfight\"</a> (by <a HREF=\"https://web.archive.org/web/20000930001706/http://www.uif.uiuc.edu/public/InvestingIL/issue27/art06.htm\">Brand Fortner of Spyglass/Mosaic web browser fame</a>) which spawned the US Army's <a href=https://web.archive.org/web/20010306042319/http://www.hyw.com/Books/WargamesHandbook/6-3-gene.htm>Panzer tank simulator which spawned Panther</a> by the late John Edo Haefeli at NW University. At one point, in the mid-1970s, there was even an attempt to create a gaming arcade using PLATO and its multi-user games. \n\nAirfight and Panther spawned <a HREF=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Microsoft_Flight_Simulator#SubLOGIC_flight_simulators\">Sublogic’s Flightsimulator</a> and <a HREF=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battlezone_(1980_video_game)\">Atari’s Battlezone</a> arcade game respectively. Atari, Inc. had an account on the PLATO system, which was a regular player in PLATO’s many multi-user games. Atari produced a number of games based on PLATO games, such as Battlezone. Sublogic was, like PLATO-central, located in <a HREF=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Champaign%E2%80%93Urbana_metropolitan_area\">Champaign Urbana</a>.\n\nWas Spasim the first 3D game? \n\nWell, almost certainly, it was the first multi-user 3D game.\n\n## The Game\nSpasim was a 32-player 3D networked game involving 4 planetary systems with up to 8 players per planetary system, flying around a space in which the players appeared to each other as wire-frame space ships and updated their positions about every second. \n\nAt its initial release in March of 1974, the game was a simple team-based phasers-and-photon-torpedos Star Trek-type game, mixed with multi-player first-person-shooter dynamics. You had to direct your movement in polar coordinates, but calculate your positions in Cartesian coordinates. By this conceit, I was able to position Spasim as an educational game so that it would be supported on the PLATO network, which was for <a HREF=\"https://web.archive.org/web/20090727132542/http://www.quasar.ualberta.ca/IT/research/Szabo/CMC.html\">computer-based education</a>.\n\nThe second version, released in July of 1974, included more strategy, including space stations and global resource management. The object of the second version of the game was to try to avoid going to war with other players and perhaps even cooperate to get to a far off planet where you could obtain enormous amounts of extraterrestrial resources. If you went to war, or you just flew around admiring the constellations, you could suffer the dread \"PLANETARY PROLETARIATE REVOLT\" during which you would watch, helplessly, as your planet’s population and resource-base met with disaster. \n\n## The History\n\nI began work on \"spasim\" (I naively intended for it to be pronounced \"space sim\" but players of the game quickly christened it \"spasm\") while helping <a HREF=\"https://web.archive.org/web/20010602052534/http://mitpress.mit.edu/e-journals/Leonardo/rolodex/brush.leif.html\">University of Iowa art professor Leif Brush</a> establish that institution’s first computer art class in January of 1974. Artists found the technical details of submitting FORTRAN stacks of cards punched on 026 machines to the <a HREF=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Everett_Franklin_Lindquist\">Lindquist Center for Measurement</a>’s IBM 360/65, with its 24-hour turnaround time Calcomp plotters, to be more than a minor impediment to creativity. \n\nFortunately, professor Brush introduced us to an amazing phenomenon: A PLATO graphics terminal in the computer-based education lab on the second story of the Lindquist Center. By establishing an individual studies course with Dr. Don McClain, I was able to assist Dr. McClain’s now late colleague, Dr. Bobby Brown, professor of computer based education, who generously tolerated my obsessive, day and night, presence in front of this very much-in-demand resource within his lab. \n\nThe PLATO system had hundreds of plasma panel terminals (512*512 graphics displays) around the US with 1200bps connections into <a href=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seymour_Cray\">Seymour Cray</a>'s <a HREF=\"https://web.archive.org/web/20091022025325/http://geocities.com/jim_bowery/6600farm.html\">CDC Cyber 6400</a> mainframe at <a HREF=\"http://archives.library.illinois.edu/archon/?p=creators/creator&id=123\">the Computer Based Education Research Laboratory</a> (<a HREF=\"http://www.cerlsoundgroup.org/CSGdesc/CSG.html\">CERL</a>) in <a HREF=\"http://www.boraski.com/obelisk/cyberfest/s_1997hal.html\">Urbana, Illinois: fictional birthplace of HAL in Arthur C. Clarke’s \"2001: A Space Odessy\"</a>. CERL was a block from</a> <a HREF=\"http://www.ncsa.uiuc.edu/ncsa.html\">what would become the <a HREF=\"http://www.ncsa.uiuc.edu/ncsa.html\">National Center for Supercomputing Applications</a> (NCSA). NCSA was where, more than 15 years later, the Mosaic web browser (basis of both the Netscape and Internet Explorer web browsers) would be written, as well as the Apache web server, the most widely used web server on the Internet. Well, here we are, well past 2001 with no HAL. AI has failed our expectations but the Internet is ample compensation, so it looks like Clarke was at least a little prophetic in picking Urbana.\n\nThe experience of PLATO was radically different from almost any other computing environment of the time. Lots of people had ideas of course, but no one had actually turned those ideas into a highly interactive graphical community. Instead of punch cards, teletypes or even video screens with virtual card decks, PLATO had a graphical program editor with single key-press execution, dynamic debugger and an adaptive automated help request system that fed into an online support staff in real time. The coupling with the real-time availability of people online to help you get going meant it was really easy to get up to speed on PLATO – indeed it was easier in many ways than getting up to speed on Internet facilities of comparable complexity today. The educational purpose of the PLATO system was successfully leveraged in bringing lots of new authors up to speed fast.\n\nWhile I was learning to program PLATO, a group of guys at <a HREF=\"http://jva.cs.iastate.edu/operation.php\">the birthplace of the computer</a> – <a HREF=\"http://www.public.iastate.edu/~isu150/history/history.html\">Iowa State College of Agriculture and Mechanical Arts</a> in <a HREF=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ames,_Iowa\">Ames, Iowa</a> – helped me remotely via the PLATO network and showed me some of their work. John Daleske and Charles Miller were the most helpful. John Daleske had written the first version of a game called \"<a HREF=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Empire_(PLATO)\">Empire</a>\" in April of 1973, when he was joined by <a HREF=\"https://web.archive.org/web/20021015154237/http://pwp.value.net/penomee/silas.html\">Silas Warner</a>, the prolific Jolly Giant of PLATO game authors, from Indiana. Empire, which now exists as an Internet game under the name of <a HREF=\"http://www.netrek.org/\">Netrek</a>, was a 2D second-person shooter graphical game based loosely on the Star Trek series, including 4 planetary systems and 4 teams where your goal was to conquer all the planetary systems. Although there were many two-player graphical games on PLATO at the time, and Empire wasn’t entirely functional, I was inspired by the idea of a multi-player graphical game of such scope. (Another early version of Empire was written by and some of the other guys at Ames who would go on to create the <a HREF=\"http://www.atarimagazines.com/v3n7/online.html\">Moria adventure game</a> along with Chuck Miller.)\n\nDream check #1: John Daleske had grown up about 10 miles from me in the tiny town of <a HREF=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carlisle,_Iowa\">Carlisle</a>, of <a HREF=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/McCaughey_septuplets\">McCaughy Septuplets</a> fame. OK, that’s not too freaky, but dig this: A few years after we met online, John and I finally met face to face at CERL. There, standing in the stairwell, a block from where the web browser you are probably using was first developed, John told me that he had been inspired to write Empire in an unusual experience, and that he had experienced visitation.  In my admittedly fallible perception of that conversation, I had the impression that John had been inspired to write Empire by being visited by a space man – a representative of an organization that claimed to have bases on the far side of the moon and IIRC was associated in some way with the Air Force.  John has been kind enough to provide his recollection of that conversation: \n\n> Now, to clarify the inception of Empire. It was not an alien visitation. I was sitting in a hallway and an inspiration event occured. This is no different than the eureka inspiration events any other creative artist, scientist, writer, etc. would have. The event, lasting a few minutes, was special in that I often had to work somewhat harder at being creative. The design for Empire just popped in, if you will. I had played all the (few) games on PLATO at that time, April 1973. They were Big-Board, challenge games. I had played simulation and tactics board games and the multi-player design for Empire came to me. I was taking an Education class at the time which is what had afforded me access to the two PLATO terminals on campus. We each had some project to do for the class and I had been working on a different one. When the PLATO terminals were installed, I was first on campus. I explored every nook of the system, all the lessons I could find, and the games. Five days later is when the design for Empire came to me. I scrapped my other project and got approval to do something on PLATO instead. I did not know how to obtain lessons and had just run across Silas, so he worked it out to have a lesson started. I did the entire first version myself, up to the point where the game was playable before Silas got involved. So, in one sense, I created the first version entirely myself, but I did have support from Silas. He did review the game for playability and gave comments and suggestions, but I did all the coding. \n\n> ...However, in early 1975 I did have an odd occurrence (truly odd or somewhat unique) that I had difficulty explaining.  I did tell you about the event.  I have spent a lot of time trying to understand the aspects of it.  No direct physical visitation.  It was some kind of psychic event, either with other individuals communicating to me or my sub-conscious/Higher Self.  (This is difficult to explain in a short writing of an email.  I need to write the whole thing out in detail for people to grasp it.)  At the time, I came to feel it was from outside myself, some form of psychic communication from others of some form.  I felt initially that it was a number of people trying to concentrate together to break through my deep pondering.  The part about the moon was I was given to understand they somehow used the moon to \"bounce\" their message to me or they used it as a focal point for jointly concentrating their efforts.  After \"they\" got my attention, the conversation ended up focusing on one \"voice\".  At the same time, I could \"feel\" some knowledge being given to me, actually massive amounts of information, like a huge OC-768 pipe to a single PC.  This information was about our future, where things were going, etc.  It even included that I would meet someone from \"one of the three 'C's of Ohio\".  I had not really been in Ohio, just having driven with my family through on our vacations to the East coast.  I could only think of Cleveland and Cincinnati as \"C's\".   I did not realize it until about 1981 that my wife was born in Columbus, the capitol of Ohio, who had moved to a suburb of Westerville which was centered on what they called it, \"3C Highway\".  Much more of the knowledge I was given has come true over the years.  The collapse of current civilization hasn't happened, yet, though.  (I'm not too excited about that last one!  I'd rather we got our stuff together and worked for a sustainable future.)\n\nJohn was, and remains, a unique individual, as are many (if not most) pioneers, but IMHO he wasn’t crazy and when I worked with him at the Arden Hills operation PLATO project, he actually seemed quite staid.  Given some of my own, only slightly less bizarre, experiences as well as my own uniqueness, I have difficulty just dismissing his story as nonsense. But I still don’t know what to make of it. \n\nThus, I was inspired to write something like Empire. Now we have to do a quick rewind to the early 1960s and a steam tunnel running beneath the University of Iowa. That’s where the late <a HREF=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ron_Resch\">Ron Resch</a>, the son of a rural Iowan <a href=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_Community_of_Christ\">Reorganized LDS</a> family, was living when he developed a parametric 3D CAD with some computer scientists there. Fast forward to 1974 and I was to inherit Ron’s work.\n\nI asked around the Lindquist Center for 3D perspective programs and managed to obtain an old FORTRAN card deck. Little did I realize that one of its co-authors had left the University of Iowa for the University of Illinois, preceding my migration to PLATO by some years. At the U of Illinois, he would place a 25 cent bet with the soon-to-be legendary PLATO system programmer, Don Lee, that Don couldn’t do 3D solids rendering with full shading over one weekend. That man was Ron Resch. Ron and Don had been discussing various tricks for dividing perspective drawing problems up into quadrants, and thought they were on the verge of something. Don took Ron’s bet, produced the first 3D ray-trace image of a tetrahedron intersected with a sphere over the weekend and then and took Ron’s 25 cents. Ron also went on to the University of Utah where <a HREF=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evans_%26_Sutherland#History\">Evans and Sutherland</a> had produced <a href=https://web.archive.org/web/20050207020842/http://www.sun.com/960710/feature3/alice.html>the world's first virtual reality system</a>.  There Ron took on such notable students as <a HREF=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alan_Kay\">Alan Kay</a> and <a HREF=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jim_Blinn\">Jim Blinn</a>.\n\nDream check #2: While I was working with him, Leif Brush held an exhibition  of computer art from two artists. One of them was a music composer from the  University of Illinois whose work was quite forgettable. The other was from \n  Utah and had shaded 3D renderings of strange abstract objects that fascinated  me enough that I almost went to Utah instead of Urbana. Little did I realize  these fascinating ray-traced color images were by Ron Resch, the same man who \n  had blazed the 3D graphics trail prior to me at the University of Iowa. Nor  did Leif Brush realize the three-way connection between U of U, U of IA and  U of IL. Two decades years later I found myself sharing a 3-office space with Ron and the remnants of the <a HREF=\"http://www.udanax.xanadu.com/history/index.html\">Xanadudes</a>,  including <a HREF=\"https://web.archive.org/web/20020219021814/http://www.rickross.com/reference/Scien89.html\">Keith Henson</a>  of \"<a HREF=\"http://articles.latimes.com/1990-10-14/books/bk-3429_1_great-mambo-chicken\">The  Great Mambo Chicken and the Transhuman Condition</a>\" and <a HREF=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L5_Society\">L5  Society</a> fame. We were all recruited, independently, to reengineer an insurance  company having, apparently, nothing else in common to draw us together but some  sort of weird history, which we discovered during our lunch conversations.\n\nOnce I had The Formulas in hand, I quickly hacked out my first 3D graphics program on PLATO.\n\nAs one might imagine, it was a very exciting time. To see a dynamic mathematical space open up in full perspective visuals for the first time was an intoxicating experience. As most authors must experience when they are possessed of their muse, it felt like I was simultaneously creating and discovering a new universe – but this was even more captivating and visceral!\nAt first, the space consisted of a few simple geometric wire frames but within a few days progressed to 3D representations of Empire’s 2D space ships. I then made it possible to move around them as the first person with single key strokes (the qweadzxc octa-directional keys for altitude and azimuth and + and – for acceleration and deceleration) while others looked on from their vantage points in Spasim space. \n\nA vital aside: The, then, love of my life longed-for since our small-town Iowan adolescence together, who will remain mercifully unnamed, didn’t entirely understand my obsessive behavior. Once I \"attained\" her, I focused heavily on my creation and frequently came \"home\" to <a HREF=\"https://housing.uiowa.edu/residence-halls/hillcrest-hall\">Hillcrest dormitory</a> at dawn. As one might expect, we had problems typical of Baby Boomers in the middle of the Sexual Revolution and Women’s Liberation. Further, she saw what I was doing as playing kid games with adult tools; which was somewhat accurate as far as she could see. Finally, being an earthy sort, focused on the humanities, she was more interested in Tolstoy than in creating and discovering strange new worlds. Although we were in the <a HREF=\"https://writersworkshop.uiowa.edu/\">Iowa City Writer’s Workshop</a> as undergraduates together, and both shared a love of creativity, it wasn’t enough to bind us, even with our shared adolescence and early adult development. Her parting words were: \"Pursue the work you love.\" Deprived of the joys of human love, I buried myself more obsessively in the work at hand – not that the work benefited from that sort of devotion. I was fortunate to have had enough self-esteem that I could continue on. Unfortunately, I saw many budding inventors like myself crushed by similar situations, living, as many of them did in male-saturated engineering environments where most women had too much sexual power and youthful foolishness for their own good. In retrospect, ours was a story repeated, not only by myself later in life, but throughout the U.S. untold countless times through the two decades that Baby Boomer \"nerds\" were creating what would become the Internet, leaving a carnage of broken relationships, and sometimes families, in its wake. The irony may be a bit thick, but it bears saying with some seriousness that zoo keepers will one-day transfer their <a HREF=\"https://nationalzoo.si.edu/animals/white-cheeked-gibbon\">knowledge of gibbon breeding</a> to inventors and their mates. It certainly would help technology along because invention becomes less relevant when it is used as an emotional anesthetic rather than growing from a creative dream. Until then: <a HREF=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CgWHbpMVQ1U\">Oh, the humanity!</a>\n\nBy this time, word was getting around the PLATO network that I had developed something very interesting. One of the first people to show interest was Silas Warner. He asked if he could have the inspect code (password) for Spasim so he could show the code to a new programmer. I obliged. About 2 weeks later, the heritage of flight simulators that gave rise to Microsoft Flightsimulator was born in the form of Silas’s latest game: Air Race (spelled, \"Airace\" I believe). I didn't really mind Silas doing this because, after all, Empire, which he and John Daleske had shown me in its early stages, had inspired me to write Spasim. \nThe popularity of Silas’s Air Race caught up with Spasim’s and soon surpassed it, partly because his game was simpler to play and partly because he had an existing reputation for doing good games on PLATO. Even so, Spasim had quite a following. There was starting to be a late night cult around the game, which took enormous slices out of the 1 MIPS CDC Cyber 6400 CPUs in order to run all 32 players at competition speeds (frame rates a lot higher than 1 per second).\n\n## The New Spasim\nOne of the individuals who heard about this strange character sitting off by himself midst the Iowa Corn Fields with his 3D phenomenon, was George Carter who, along with <a HREF=\"http://pespmc1.vub.ac.be/UMPLEBY.html\">Stuart Umpleby</a>, had obtained a grant from the National Science Foundation to develop a computer-based <a HREF=\"https://web.njit.edu/~turoff/Papers/DelphiConference.pdf\">Delphi conferencing system</a>. They were trying to realize a man-machine cybernetic vision of this magical little gnome named <a HREF=\"http://www.univie.ac.at/constructivism/HvF.htm\">Heinz von Foerster</a> and needed an email system to go along with it. When George saw my code (which I volunteered), he hired me to write an email system for them over the summer. When the semester was over, I threw a few things into my ‘64 Chevy Impalla, and headed east on Interstate 80 across the Illinois border for Urbana and CERL. It was my first paying job as a programmer.\n\nArriving at the Mecca of networking and meeting the magical little gnome who founded <a HREF=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second-order_cybernetics\">second order cybernetics</a> (symbolized by the <a HREF=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ouroboros\">Ouroboros</a>) in his <a HREF=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biological_Computer_Laboratory\">Biological Computer Laboratory</a> was an amazing experience. I don’t know much about von Foerster’s theories, but I do know he exuded energy and humanity in such abundance that it lifted spirits and excited intellects around him. I’ve never met anyone like him since. It is understandable to me that there is a bit of a cult of personality surrounding The Cybergnome of Vienna.\n\nWhen I set out to design the second version of Spasim, my apartment mate, a metallurgy student named Frank Canzolino with an excellent grasp of 3D geometry from his study of crystalline structures, helped me optimize and generalize the 3D graphics formulas quite a bit. But I wanted to do something more significant with the second version of Spasim than just optimize its graphics. The whole idea of positive-sum game playing was innately appealing to me, being from a farming family, and it was being drummed into my head by the game theoretic discussions of the second order cybernetics crowd surrounding von Foerster.\n\nI decided to build a positive-sum aspect into the second version of Spasim based on the idea of space resource utilization.\n\nA vital side note:  Heinz von Foerster had published a paper in 1960 on global population: von Foerster, H, Mora, M. P., and Amiot, L. W., \"Doomsday: Friday, 13 November, A.D.\" 2026, Science 132, 1291-1295 (1960).  In this paper, Heinz shows that the best formula that describes population growth over known human history is one that predicts the population will go to infinity on a Friday the 13 in November of 2026.  As <a href=http://www.thing.de/hartmoderne/text/xanadu.html#6>Roger Gregory</a> likes to say, \"That's just whacko!\"  The problem is, after he published the paper, it kept predicting population growth better than the other models.  (<a href=https://web.archive.org/web/20030210232153/http://bandersnatch.fnr.umass.edu/pub/mod577/sysnotes.html>see section 4.1 \"Systems Ecology Notes\"</a>)  One of Heinz's early University of Illinois colleagues was <a href=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Hamming>Richard Hamming of \"Hamming code\" fame</a>.  Once while visiting the Naval Postgraduate School, I asked Dr. Hamming what he thought of Heinz von Foerster.  Professor Hamming's response was \"Heinz von Foerster:  Now there's a first class <b>kook</b>!\"  I suspect Heinz's publication of, what <a href=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transhumanism>Transhumanists</a> call, \"<a href=https://web.archive.org/web/20001025001640/http://homepages.go.com/~cryonic4life/vinge.html>the singularity</a>\" had really gotten to Hamming -- not that Heinz wasn't eccentric enough get Hamming's goat in any case.  Well, to continue this digression so as to give the damn Transhumanists a much-deserved keyboard lashing:  It's one thing to be a guy like Hamming and denounce Heinz as a \"kook\" for following his formulae where they lead -- it's another to turn Heinz's formulae into a virtual religion, call it \"the singularity\" and totally forget where the idea came from the first place.  I suggest the Transhumanists cite Heinz in the future whenever they refer to \"the singularity\" and think about his assumptions -- the primary one being that societies´ success varies directly with population size.  It might be good to see if his model fits the data subsequent to the last check of which I am aware -- 1973 -- which just happens to be right at the point high population density societies decided to abandon their forward progress toward the space frontier. \n\nI had been further inspired to this by my adolescent membership in Zero Population Growth, and my distaste for the solutions proposed by its founder, and author of \"The Population Bomb\", Stanford University Professor Paul Ehrlich. Keep in mind, the first moon mission, Apollo 11 flew in 1969, the same year that Paul and Anne Ehrlich published \"The Population Bomb\" and began encouraging morally responsible middle class youth to cease having children. I say \"cease having children\" because that was the message I received as an intelligent young idealistic member of Zero Population Growth in a Des Moines Presbyterian church meeting I attended where ZPG was holding a seminar. Then, the last moon misson, Apollo 17, flew in 1972 – the same year that the Club of Rome published its landmark report, <a HREF=\"https://web.archive.org/web/20010216191429/http://www.overpopulation.com/limits_to_growth.html\">Limits to Growth</a> based on a computer simulation of global population growth and resource limits. \n\nMany young men of the Baby Boomer generation were, like myself, shell-shocked at the idea that the Apollo program had turned out to be merely a political contest with the Russians rather than a genuine effort to open up an appropriate outlet for the expression of humanity’s masculine character. \n\nIn a subtle and profound way, it was a very dark time to be a young man in the pioneer heritage culture of the Midwest:\n<OL>\n<LI>The souring of the Sexual Revolution into openly hostile Women’s Liberation perversely combined with the metastasizing urban wasteland of disco sexuality and incurable sexually transmitted diseases.</LI>\n<LI>The first big oil embargo from the Arab nations.</LI>\n<LI>The first loss of a war by the U.S.</LI>\n<LI>Skyrocketing real estate speculation anticipating Boomer demand.</LI>\n<LI>The start of a long era of inflation combined with economic stagnation – something the economists said couldn’t happen.</LI>\n<LI>A barrage of negative predictions for the future midst growing hostility toward technologists and pioneers.</LI>\n<LI>Closing off of positive options for humanity, as the space program revealed its political character.</LI></OL>\n\nI wasn’t really thinking about all of this consciously at the time, but the hideous confluence of circumstances definitely motivated me to act.\n\nI thought up a system of differential equations similar to the Club of Rome’s upon which Ehrlich and others based their ideology of infertility, but allowed for nonterrestrial resources (collectively called \"antientropy\") in the equations. Another would soon do the same. <a HREF=\"http://www.pattenacademy.net/j-peter-vajk.html\">J. Peter Vjak</a>’s \"<a HREF=\"https://www.amazon.com/Doomsday-been-cancelled-Peter-Vajk/dp/0915238241\">Doomsday Has Been Cancelled</a>\" (Culver City, California: Peace Press, 1978) was based on a paper generalizing the Club of Rome’s \"limits to growth\" differential equations to include nonterrestrial resources – a paper which I believe he published as early as 1975. Still others were thinking along the same lines.  <a href=\"http://ssi.org/the-life-of-gerard-k-oneill/\">Gerard K. O’Neill’s</a> physics students in Princeton began looking for a positive role for humanity in leaving all planetary surfaces behind and establishing artificial ecosystems swarming around the stars like glowing green fireflies.\n\nSomething was definitely in the air.\n\nDream check #3: Almost a decade later, in 1983, I wound up working as a computer consultant in an office in La Jolla, CA which received Peter Vjak’s mail after he had moved on to another job prior to my arrival. This consulting job had nothing to do with space, limits to growth, etc. \n\nI sat down at a PLATO terminal next to <a HREF=\"http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~sleator/\">Danny Sleator</a> and told him I was going to destroy Spasim. He thought I was joking. I went into the \"lesson\" in edit mode, paged through each part, marking off the blocks to be deleted. Danny’s mouth was agape, and stuttered something like \"Y—you’re not really going to do this Bowery.\" But I was a man possessed. I hit the SHIFT-HELP key to activate the deletion. Danny sat there stunned. Then he said, \"Oh, you’re going to go into the disk utility and recover everything.\" I then created a huge common storage that filled up the file space with zeros. Then I deleted it. Danny yelled, \"You’re CRAZY!\"\n\nOver the next 3 days, \"Canzo\" and I barely slept as we rewrote Spasim from the ground up using his optimizations and my new game theory design. Cases of Coke and cartons of Marlboros later, it worked like a champ! I gave up drinking Cokes immediately and stopped smoking a bit later. \n\nThe audience shrank to about ½ of what it had been because it wasn’t the simple first-person-shoot-em-up theme it once was – you had to strategize more, use warfare sparingly and figure out how to keep your planet stable. \n\nIn the new Spasim, you have to find those rare others that will not betray you as you cooperate to get to the very distant and difficult to reach resources. If you find genuine cooperators, or if you can effectively enforce cooperation, you can get out of the normal conflicts and focus on reaching your destiny. And then you win!",
