What is the Point of Reality?

Well, I did it. The essay I promised to write and submit to the FQXi Essay Contest was submitted yesterday, on my birthday! It’s entitled “What is the Point of Reality?” in answer to the contest question, “Is Reality Digital or Analog?”
My answer is that it is both, because the continuum can be digitized by the RST scalar “direction” reversals. One might think that would be an easy essay to write, but believe me, it wasn’t. I struggled with how to best communicate the idea in only 25,000 characters and nine pages with one inch margins.
It was tough, but I’m pleased to announce that I did it.
Hopefully, my readers will read it and let me know what they think. The ongoing discussion is taking place at the FQXi site as I write. There are a whole lot of essays there. Let’s see how this one stacks up.
I will be expanding on the essay on the LRC blogs. Maybe I’ll even make a YouTube video on the subject.

Actually, I should mention that Horace and George helped me, so I shouldn't take all the credit to myself. Horace and his friends read and discussed the essay extensively, providing me with great feedback. The trouble was, I was unable to use it, because of a mis-communication.
So, what I've decided to do is edit the essay, using the feedback they gave me, and post it here on the LRC site. I should be able to complete it in the next week or so.
