Repackaging

Thinking seriously of repackaging 4 early novels that have been gathering cyber dust at Amazon. Another experiment, not too much work. Nothing to lose.

The Math! You said it. The woman I've dated for the past seven years is a Ph.D. math professor. She's spending the next year working at the National Ignition Facility on fusion power generation.

Only, with the math she does, there are no right or wrong answers. I mean, it's not like when we go to the casino and nine times out of ten she wins at Blackjack. In fact, she paid for school that way--playing Blackjack. Speaking of her work, she says the numbers are working, but she doesn't understand the questions yet.

So, it's this whole question of perception. I expect she could walk circles around most of the people at a place like the NSA--hung-up on Big Data as they are and unable to predict the appearance of a strange attractor, like someone who steals your data and makes off for Hong Kong.

Isn't it interesting that a high school dropout has nicely illustrated the limits of the system--a Cyberpunk. It was predictable.

For myself, it's a question of culture. What does a dystopian future look like? What are the implications for something like human identity?

How do I package that? Maybe my professor can format for Kindle.
