Well there are males and females, which could be measured in 1s ands 0s.


Sexual dimorphism is a very analog affair... lots of degrees and variations.

Any natural dualism you can come up with, will probably have that problem. I can't think of any, offhand.

And again, you don't need to. You convert anything you like to digital and lose some precision to gain enormous flexibility, if you have the dough to build it and pay for the power supply.

Without lots of freely available cheap energy and Moore's law, digital wouldn't be half as big as it is today. Maybe not even *common*, and IBM would have been correct with their 100 mainframes worldwide. If it takes 50 years to come up with something better and faster, that sortof takes the spunk out of it.

I'm a perfectionist, and perfect is a skinned knee.

there was symbolism implicit in my response.

Any natural dualism you can come up with, will probably have that problem.

There are two kinds of people in the world: those that insist on dividing people into two types, and those who do not.


All else is in doubt, so this is the truth I cling to.

I always seem to get my notes crushed between your explicit suggestiveness and implicit symbolism, somehow.
