Dear ahhaha (a.k.a. The Space Cadet),

I hope you will accept this modest note from an earthling. Apparently in the advanced civilization in which you were uncorked, your humanoid forms only need the use of half their brain. Unbeknownst to your species, perhaps, is the fact that here on Planet Earth, we tend to use both the left and the right side of our puny intelligence cavities.

And in consequence of this folly, we employ those pesky things called oscillators. They help us graphically decide when and where to enter a trade. Foolish of us, I know, but we really just do not possess the advanced intellectual circuitry of your civilization.

I sincerely hope you will forgive us and let us continue to use the entire box of crayons we have been offered.

By the way, we use these devices to make something called money, a pecuniary form of exchange which your own civilization apparently has no need of. At least your other-worldy postings would indicate you probably have not yet acquired any in our primitive markets.

why exactly "2000"?
and how did you detect them if you say they aren't "detectable"?
is this your idea of 'science'???

There are 2,000 galactic civilizations watching us daily. They wrap space, not spacetime, around their observation modules so they aren't detectable by our primitive em technologies. In our primitive knowledge of fields that would take a mass density greater than that of a black hole, so we would say it was impossible.

OK..your post caught my attention. I want to learn more about how this would work. More for personal interest--reading up on such theories. Within the realm of possibilities, IMHO.
Quantum Physics would somehow be related to this theory--am I correct about that?
I have not started my course in that subject yet.

Your comments on the markets is what is really confusing me.<g>
