Title: Amazing co-incidence !
Post by: Peripatetic Phil on December 04, 2010, 01:58 PM

As those of you who have read my posts in other threads will already know, I do have interests outside of BIR curry, although of course the search for the perfect home-cooked Chicken Madras (or Tandoor Chicken) still occupies most of my waking hours ...

Nonetheless, I was staggered today, when searching for information on D J Spencer-Brown, to whom Professor George Spencer-Brown (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G._Spencer-Brown) refers in his Laws of Form (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laws_of_Form), to come across the following :

Co-incidence, or just an indication that the Universe is indeed closed ?!

Well, I just didn't expect to find a reference to a rather esoteric mathematician and philosopher on a site called "Curry Guide", even though said site appears to have little or nothing to do with curries per se ...  Or seen from the opposite perspective, I didn't expect to land on a site calling itself "Curryguide" while searching for information on the ?brother? of a rather esoteric mathematician and philosopher !

I've got a degree in philosophy and I'm addicted to curry. I can see no problem in the link between the two. In fact I think it is axiomatic.
