\nthinking poker is a way of thinking about truth
\nmainline to the necker cube
\nthe riddle of three hats
\npoker a game three can play<\/p>\n

\ncurious witness<\/p>\n

\nlook at society wanting to play poker
\nwho is calling the shots in the society of those who don\u2019t want us to play
\ndistinguish games of chance from games of skill
\nwho pays the bills of those who put the opposition witnesses together
\nhow is the program put together
\nwho makes the witness list<\/p>\n
i\u2019m fighting for freedom to play poker
\nthe law as old as momammed divides between gambling and games of skill
\nhere it is simple
\ngambling on lotteries is irrational from any rational gambler\u2019z point of view
\ngames of chance give hope and take money at bad odds
\nplaying games of skill is how you learn<\/p>\n

\nHi Professor Nesson. My Dad forwarded over your response.<\/p>\n
How are you feeling? I hope well! I was so sorry to hear about your back. To be honest, when we first heard, we weren\u2019t sure if it was real \u2014 after your avatarial address, we were half expecting you to scooter in on one wheel through the back door! Again though, thank you so much for inviting us to the conference. It really was amazing.<\/p>\n
I stole the Goldsmith and Wu book from my Dad, and there\u2019s one quote I thought worth sharing. It\u2019s a John Barlow:<\/p>\n
\u201cImagine discovering a continent so vast that it may have no end to its dimensions. Imagine a new world with more resources than all our future greed might exhaust, more opportunities than there will ever be entrepreneurs enough to exploit, and a peculiar kind of real estate that expands with development.\u201d And \u201cimagine a place where trespassers leave no footprints, where goods can be stolen an infinite number of times and yet remain in the possession of their original owners, where businesses you never heard of can own the history of your personal affairs, where only the children feel completely at home, where the physics is that of thought rather than things, and where everyone is as virtual as the shadows in Plato\u2019s Cave\u201d<\/p>\n
Have you seen this one? What\u2019s on the table here I think is definitely *both* (and equally) cyberspace and virtual space (by which I mean the web and metaverse constructions respectively).<\/p>\n
Best wishes, and feel well!
