Dick's model means absolutely nothing, right? That's what me and Aurino have said from day one, it is meaningless. You can't apply its meaning to the real world and Dick should just publish as a math theorem (scratch the phil of sci 101 and remove terms like 'reality', 'knowable', 'unknowable', etc) and forget about it and discuss other things. When asked about it, Dick should say: "I once published a math theorem dealing with probability theory". I could buy into that and it seems you can to. It's Dick who wants to say something more.
