I think binary does very well even on the lunatic fringe. The smallest parcels are photons and electrons (SET, a charge bucket), where presence or absence is crucial, and in spintronics spin up or down. Otoh, in the very short temporal and small spatial domains digital and analog tend to become one. > [0] still owing silk an explanation of what we are up to and why I have > taken a sabbatical from retirement (work is the curse of the thinking > classes...) Oh, yes. I'm looking forward to your explanation.
