I had a random (heh) thought.
I was thinking about quantum physics and my very very limited knowledge of it. How at the very core of it all, it's entirely random. There's no pattern. But what if there was? What if quantum mechanics at its very core was a highly complex chain that was so incredibly long that it might as well be random? They probably have math to prove it's actually random, again I don't have a lot of knowledge on quantum mechanics.
Another note on eHalcyon: He may have just finally moved on from F.DS as a whole. His last post was in May, but his last log-in was in September. We might not see much (if anything) of him anymore, which is a shame.
