h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

After being in H2G2 for a short time, I've lost all sense of time and reality.

Whilst fond of the idea of multidimensional space, the thought of copies of myself living in them drives me to despair.

H2G2 is a multidimensional space, researchers working tirelessly in their own space, never meeting except occasionally.

We are equipped with basic methods of interpretation, to assimilate to and accommodate our environment.

We can interpret things in terms of symmetry, distinguishing them by recognising asymmetry.

But we are also blessed with mathematics, an abstraction pointing to things which may or may not be true in reality.

It may be through evolution we evolved in a way never looking beyond three dimensions, because it wasn't necessary to survive, and their are more dimensions to our space.

Certainly it makes for intriguing fiction.

I hope your loss of was only short-term. I sometimes lose my senses too. And my memory is but a distant.....memory

If there are any other copies of me living out there, in multidimensional space (I doubt it by the way), I just hope they're behaving myselves

Using the methods of interpretation I've been equipped with, I judge you to be another pattern chasers (like researcher U228046, Traveller in Time).

It's quite a long time since I used mathematics for anything more complicated than bookkeeping. I wouldn't know where to start making a mathematical assessment of reality. Thank goodness for imagination, that can allow you to clamber out of the every-day and glimpse the impossible

Thank you for being intrigued - and saying so
