<<Cute, but it has the standard Creator problem. How was the Creator
created?
From what process did the original first SuperIntelligence spring? Unless
somehow the snake does indeed swallow its own tail, there must have been one
universe that was not created by some SI.

Of course you are right on this issue. I purchased a book by Edward Harrison,
a retired cosmologist from Amhurst or U. Mass. The original work was
published in 1985. He viewed the universe as created by "angels" or as some of us
might quip "godz" and I wonder if the author of this new book, Biocosm; was not
also influenced by Andrei Linde, from Stanford? Harrison seemed to conclude that
the universe was the mind. Perhaps looking at the universe in a different way
then your typical astronomer, may help the species forward. This is my hope,
anyways.
