                     10: <p>
                     11: I was sitting around wondering (and in my wondering) I thought
                     12: about what would happen if two polar opposites were to join
                     13: in a circle with a curvy line and what could be more opposite
                     14: than "Zen" compared to "LON-CAPA".
                     15: </p>
                     16: <img src="logo.gif" alt="zen and lon-capa" />
                     17: <p>
                     18: And...woah.  If two polar opposites joining was equivalent to
                     19: Zen and Zen equals the universe, then what happens to LON-CAPA?
                     20: </p>
                     21: <p>
                     22: How can Zen+LON-CAPA=Zen?  We could assume that LON-CAPA=0
                     23: in which case LON=CAPA.  However LON-CAPA is supposed to be
                     24: LON+CAPA, at least semantically.  Thus, LON-CAPA=LON+CAPA
                     25: which means that CAPA+CAPA=0.  And if LON=CAPA, then LON=0.
                     26: If we are working in an arithmetic system, then this is
                     27: all incomplete if we consider things completely.
                     28: </p>
                     29: <p>
                     30: It gets so confusing!
                     31: </p>
                     32: <p>
                     33: Maybe it is the case that Zen means that Zen and LON-CAPA exist
                     34: which means that Zen exists which means that Zen and LON-CAPA exist.
                     35: See how nice this is!  All this logic, and it fits in a circle,
                     36: just like the image up above!  Thus, we can approach a non-fictional
                     37: understanding to the effect that everything below here is <u>completely</u>
                     38: fictional.
