John, you are opening Pandora's Box with 'choice'. Jim wants to understand my mind so that he can pick the stocks I pick before I pick them. So, if I've been drinking seawater, he'll order some and drink even more than I do so that he picks Qualcomm type companies instead of Interdigital type companies.

Do we choose? Are we allowed choice by our wonderful protective governments who want nothing more than our happiness? Can we choose anyway? For example, do people choose to be homosexual or heterosexual? Do photons choose their previous states once observed because of the choice we make or the choice they make? Just who is running the show anyway? Do we choose and thereby run it or do the choices we make result from the running of it being inflicted on us? Or is it a house of mirrors and what we choose reflects back on us and makes us re-choose, which reflects back on the rest, which reflects back on us making us re-choose again?

There is definitely something going on.

Are you sure the answer to all those questions is 'choice'?

Is that the answer to that one?

And that?

This?

?
