Go here this summer : http://www.wolframscience.com/conference/2007/

And when you get back post the report!!!!:D

Well I'd be lost at that conference but I dont need much of an excuse to go to Vermont. If I could afford to live elsewhere in the winter I'd move there tomorrow.

I personally find Wolfram's ideas to be fallacious and rife with unexplainable peculiarities, especially in his abstractions on the second degree restivity of nested recursive functions.

The man is quite simply inane.

If Tim is right, then it is a new kind of science - the intentionally wrong kind?

The charlatans do not follow the scientific method. This guy is doing the same. Not saying this guy is one but when a self-proclaimed scientist strays from the scientific method it sends up red flags for everyone in the scientific community.

Wow, some of the critics feel REALLY strongly against his book.

One review title:
A Rare Blend of Monster Raving Egomania and Utter Bat**** Insanity

So this is what he uses profits from over-priced Mathermatica for.
