ok. so i have been having trouble sleeping lately. so like most folks i decided to do some channel surfing; hoping for some dumbed-down american tv programming to to send me off to neverland.
i went to my default favorites: history channel, history channel 2, science channel, national geographic, discovery... you know - the typical nerd variety.
i forget what channel it was but i started watching this documentary on the Bible Code. i had heard of it before but dismissed it as just another excuse for religious folks to cling to their dying view of the world. i immediately started laughing because w/o even learning about it i thought it was going to be a show like Ancient Aliens: full of assumptions and illogical conclusions. "magnets? must be aliens!"
well...let me say that after the program was over i was bit freaked out. i was stunned by how many scientists, mathematicians, cryptographers, and academics who started out as skeptics became believers - even ones who had worked decades for world governments.
according to some formula of equidistance everything from the rise of hitler to 9/11 could be found in the code. in fact, the proponents of the code believe everything can be found in it.
so i gave it a whirl.
i downloaded the program and typed in some bitcoin terms and didn't find anything, but...
the name SATOSHI came up 50 times. i was unable to apply it to the book of jeremiah because of some software error, though.
out of my mathematical ineptitude i didn't look for other bitcoin related words in those searches, but maybe others have - or could.
has anyone else done this before? did you find any interesting results? if so, please share.
