Paul: Thanks for your response, I did not expect you to waste your time over this though. Hopefully, this may serve merely as a comic interlude.

Paul:

re <<This guy, Roger Young, is a whacko of the first order !>>

You got that right! Thanks for so quickly exposing this bum. A couple of additional excerpts included the following and may explain why he is doing this:

"(It had been hinted at, while I was at Northrop, that I was in danger of being put in a mental institution and my father (right after my mother killed herself) said that I should see a psychiatrist. I called one up and made an appointment (and made a list of about 15 weird things that had happened in the last MONTH, as well as at least one other weird thing, in case he really thought that I might be paranoid)....

....My solution is to get to a communist Country (China) (I'm a communist). To get their help, I have tried to transfer the rights to an integrated circuit design to them. I have no way to communicate with anyone, exept via the internet at the State College public library (Schlow) or Penn State Library, who is not nearby, (since I can't even afford stamps, let alone $2 domestic payphone calls that rarely get through or $13 international calls that don't get through."

Oops too late!! Fuchi sold all his NSM stock on the rumor. Oh well!!

Best Regards,

Greg Gimelli

Paul -
This guy, Roger Young, is a WHACKO of the first order !

I bet you don't believe in his perpetual motion machine either, or the faster-than-light transport.

Some of the ideas he proposes are reminiscent of the data-driven AI concepts of the early 80's. I believe that kind of thinking does permanent brain damage, and graduate students exposed to the concepts will have 'flashbacks' many years later, in which they understand how to get all that memory to talk at the same time without increasing bus bandwidth. Only, when they wake up, all they can remember is how beautiful the idea was.

Maybe this design is what is really causing the Asian crisis...
