Dear Alastair:
The infinite tape was just a way to show how your example actually has a
most interesting behavior under an extension to more dimensions and to
infinity. I believe you still miss what I am trying to say.
The nested Everythings are not and can not be exact copies of each other.
be an equal chance of either? If so, that would require a different
'random' sequence - but they should be the same hits!

I think you still fail to see my point. So here I try to draw a picture.

In an earlier post:

I stated:
Can type #1 universes {those that do not allow true noise} become type #2
universes {Those that do allow true noise}. They must be able to or again
there would be a selection.
The rational is as follows:

Dear Alastair:
An clarification of my analysis of your -1 to + 10 example:
That is your model and it is one dimensional [call it x] that is it has one
venue.
Now add a dimension call it y that is infinite and perpendicular to your
example's x. This is an infinite number of venues. Add the

Dear Alastair:
I think you still miss the thrust of my comment.
As directly as I can say it:
The Everything is the ensemble of all counterfactuals.
The counterfactuals cancel out resulting in no information in the Everything.
The Everything and the Nothing are cancelling counterfactuals and
The information is contained within the Anthropic Principle
itself. Resource constraints that any observer must have impose a bias
towards simpler descriptions - that is the thrust of Alistair's and my
argument. Without the AP, the Everything is indeed devoid of any
structure whatsoever. I never

As to any surprise that we are in the universe we are in I see none. It is
just chance.
My previous post did not go into the part of my approach as to why a
universe should evolve. What drives this dynamic inside an Everything?

have just one such venue?
If there are an infinite number of venues of strength m in the Everything

place
Dear Alastair:
I will read your paper, but it seems to me that the no information
approach to formulating an Everything precludes selection. Selection
assigns a property to a subset of the ensemble that the other members do
not share. This destroys the ensemble.
Prevalence being a property
I see no reason why any difficulty along this line arises in the first place.
In my model all evolving universes have rules of state succession that
allow some degree of true noise entering the universe at each transition.
In this venue there would be an infinite number of universes that have
