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?

FYI: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_New_Kind_of_Science
The other side of the story: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_New_K...iticism_of_NKS 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.
