I have now pushed my physical limits to the extreme trying to solve this problem for the last 3 days. I have been attacked by rhinoviruses of known origins but they seem to mutate quite rapidly and hence I have not been able to defeat them. The immune defenses of my body have tried their best and are holding the hijackers at bay. But the toxins released by the viruses in my body after they were obliterated seem to pervade all parts of my body. My head is constantly pounding as I continue to solve this simulation that may have just given me some clues in during the last bootstrap. The emergent behavior of this multi-dimensional beast has gone beyond my predictions. It now borders in the chaotic domains although I have managed to induce it to stay within limits. I hope to push on for another few hours if my body permits it. I have tried to rest but the mind wants to go back into the problem as it thinks up some seeming nuances. Thus is the human condition. I hope I don't punish myself further and my brain pauses to take a deep sleep.

into the darkness an endless flight
a million flashes of delight.

Did you try reversing the polarity of something? Or maybe a tacheon beam?

Ticking sound coming from a .pkg package? Don't let the .bom go off! Inspect it first with Pacifist. Macworld - five mice!

You seem like the person that works very hard and won't give up on problems! I hope you get a restful sleep and are back to solving the problems.

That's supposed to be.

It should work like a scare crow for old threads.

I wonder what happened to Falcrum though. I haven't seen him in a long time...

Well, not that I really missed his bizarre posts.
