Hi John:

My intent is to eventually "back fill" the compacted description with
additional discussion once I think it is OK. Perhaps that will
help. In that regard I currently want information to be a divisor
and packets of divisors to be a division of the [A-Inf]. I am trying
to avoid the central use of the words "information" and
"meaning". I redid the compact form along these lines and I put it
below for easy reference. I am also attempting to avoid or at least
minimize appeal to math such as that associated with sets. I hope
there will not be much more to revise before I attempt a slightly
longer discussion.

I am an engineer but I will try to make the added discussion more
universal if that is the right word. However, I am looking for a
lattice upon which to build that discussion.

Interconnection is a main theme since the S(i) are intersected or
should be [incompleteness] by the Q(i).

Are "aspects" also types of "distinctions"? Information could be
called a distinguisher I suppose, but I currently prefer "divisor" as
in that which lies between, or outlines distinguishables.

1) Assume [A-Inf] - a complete, divisible ensemble of divisors and
its own divisions.

2) [N(i):E(i)] are two component divisions of [A-Inf] where i is an
index [as are j, k, p, r, t, v, and z below] and the N(i) are empty
of any [A-Inf] and the E(i) contain all of [A-Inf].
{[A-Inf] contains itself.}{i ranges from 1 to infinity} {N(i) is the
ith Nothing and E(i) is the ith Everything.}

3) S(j) are divisions of [A-Inf] that are not empty of [A-Inf].
    {Somethings}

4) Q(k) are divisions of [A-Inf] that are not empty of [A-Inf].
    {Questions}

5) cQ(p) intersect S(p).
   {cQ(p) are compulsatory questions for S(p)}

6) ucQ(r) should intersect S(r) but do not, or should intersect N(r)
but can not.
{ucQ(r) are un-resolvable compulsatory questions}.
{incompleteness}

7) Duration is a ucQ(t) for N(t) and makes N(t) unstable so it
eventually spontaneously becomes S(t).
   {This ucQ(t) bootstraps time.}

8) Duration can be a ucQ(v) for S(v) and if so makes S(v) unstable so
it eventually spontaneously becomes S(v+1)
   {Progressive resolution of ucQ, evolution.}

9) S(v) can have a simultaneous multiplicity of ucQ(v).
   {prediction}

10) S(v+1) is always greater than S(v) regarding its content of [A-Inf].
   {progressive resolution of incompleteness} {Dark energy?} {evolution}

11) S(v+1) need not resolve [intersct with] all ucQ(v) of S(v) and
can have new ucQ(v+1).
   {randomness, developing filters[also 8,9,10,11], creativity, that
is the unexpected, variation.}

12) S(z) can be divisible.

13) Some S(z) divisions can have observer properties [also S
itself??]: Aside from the above the the S(v) to S(v+1) transition can
include shifting intersections among S subdivisions that is
communication, and copying.
