"Two possibilities exist: Either we are alone in the Universe or we are not. Both are equally terrifying." Arthur C. Clarke
very true... almost similar to the thought that " you arent afraid of being alone in the dark, its the thought that you arent alone in the dark that scares you..."
Smile! Why not? Each universe splitting off in a microsecond by actions taken or not taken somewhere in the current universe. Access between them would be a lot like time travel with all of the same paradoxes. Accessing them would spawn an endless number of universes itself. Just think of the marketing value, if you could somehow see how certain marketing decisions played out, but then you would be in the future and they might not play out the same way now. What would the search engine be like to find a particular set of universes that might be of interest,? It would probably be akin to simulating possible decisions based upon an infinite number of data points. My head aches!
