Hello Richard,

RMM>->  > "We are the universe attempting to discover itself."
RMM>->
RMM>->     Could it have been David James Duncan?

RMM>I don't know, this is why I asked.  I heard it recently in the TV series
RMM>Babylon 5.  It seems to be the philosophy of the Minbari, but I am fairly
RMM>certain that the writer(s) got it from someplace else.  I am looking to
RMM>find the true origin of the idea.

Pogo said it, taking it a step beyond.

RMM>->     I didn't find that quote in his
RMM>-> book, _The River Why_ but I found a wealth of others.

RMM>-> Anyhow, the concept of eternity realizing itself in time is not an
RMM>-> unusual one nor is it original.

RMM>I had already realized that, but would still be interested to find out who
RMM>said it first.

Pogo.  Pogo.  I go Pogo.
