A Philosophical question.

Vic alway come up with strange maths and so I trying my hand.

Half-a-bee, philosophically must ipso-facto half not-be. But half the bee, has got to bee vis-a-vis its entity ... d'you see? but can a bee be said to be or not to be an entire bee when half the bee is not a bee due to some ancient injury?

Now that's one BEWILDERED "B"!

Walk lightly my friend.

Fuzzy logic, nice one.
not bee=1 or bee=0 but somewhere in between ..... It neither is, nor not-is.

So, let's see. If we fuzzy logic the "b"'s, we can assimilate the unilateral rationing of the aforementioned problematic by using a random coefficient of the defining rationing co-existence. By apportioning a condition of affirmative, ergo 1, to a time dependant random symbiotic relationship to the deferred affirmative, ergo 0, we can simulate a bio-rhythmic approximation of an electronically generated simulation, ergo not 'b'.

Well??????????????

so, in other words, bee, but not 2 bee?

When given a choice, take both.

Ok here, I give! I have no ideal what it mean, I didn't write it, in fact here is what is written after the first part.

La di di, one-two-three
Eric The Half-A-Bee
A-B-C-D-E-F-G
Eric The Half-A-Bee
Is this a-wretched demi-bee
Half asleep upon my knee
Some freak from a managerie?
NO! It's Eric The Half-A-Bee!
A fiddle-di-dum, a fiddle-di-dee
Eric The Half-A-Bee
Ho ho ho, tee hee hee
Eric The Half-A-Bee
I love this hive employ-e-e
Bisected accidentally
One summer afternoon by me
I love him, carnally
He loves him carnally
Semi-carnally. The end.

Cyril Connolly?
No, semi-carnally!
Oh.

The whole spam thing made me think of the composers.

well for all the mathematic mumbo jumbo that was going here a few days ago, I'm totally lost in this thread! Tobbin, good explanation! You seem to be a very clear thinking guy!

Gabriel, are you still Azuth? Did you just reply to your own thread??

------------------
FAIR DINKUM!

Gabriel · 03-04-2001, 08:13 PM

Sigh yes I'm was Azuth but now I'm Gabriel. Okay If you want to know it is a song to hear it click here http://www.mwscomp.com/sounds/mp3/halfabee.mp3 but I did get you guy thinking and so I guess it worked.

Very good Gabriel. I knew the introduction (a friend of mine used the fast count slow time sig on a song we recorded) but not the rest of the song. Trust Monty Python!!

FAIR DINKUM!
