Yes, that's going to be the motive, isn't it. Check out ZeoSync, who back in 2002 went after 40 million to develop "standard setting compression/encoding technology". Today they don't even have a Web site up. It was all a rip-off. And what about storing arbitrary amounts of data in a single 128-bit word? Here's someone who apparently still thinks this is possible: http://www.karenware.com/newsletters/2002/2002-07-12.asp Someone pulled that hoax off in the UK in the early 80s. Not to mention cold fusion. Kat, the human mind does not store data in text format. Haven't you ever had an idea that is really, really hard to put into words? You can't emulate the human thought process by matching up chunks of text, no matter how much text you have and how fast you match it. How would you deal with music or math? We may not know how the mind works but I think we know how it doesn't. Graham.
