When we have done our best, we can, as a united people, take whatever may befall with calm courage and confidence that this old nation will survive and if death should come to many of us, death is not the end.

Ihmisen tekem sateliitti ei toki ollut kuu tai thti eik mikn muukaan taivaankappale, joka kulkee kiertoradallaan niin kauan, ett se tuntuu meist maalliseen aikaan sidotuista kuolevaisista ikuisuudelta. Se onnistui silti pysymn taivaalla jonkin aikaa ja liikkui taivaankappaleiden lheisyydess ikn kuin se olisi koemieless saanut luvan tulla niiden ylevn seuraan

We hypostatize information into objects. Rearrangement of objects is change in the content of the information; the message has changed. This is a language which we have lost the ability to read.

We are not aware that we are doing this, that in fact this is...
