SPACE WARP: Some Far-Out Cosmic Speculations

Liao: Doesn't mathematics show that the entire universe can be reduced to a dot?

Bill: (laughing) That's nonsense. How could that be?

Liao: Unfortunately, I can't explain most of my intuitions.

Bill: At least you are honest about that. I hate it when folks invent implausible 
      schemes to appear logical.

Gus:  (shrugging his shoulders) Why bother? Aren't all intellectualizations ultimately 
      a waste of time?

Bill: Intellectualization has its place, but our efforts to discern meta-meanings will 
      likely be unsuccessful. Reality is bigger than our tiny brains can comprehend.

Liao: Yes, our attempts at wisdom are almost laughable. To gain wisdom, we've gotta go 
      beyond sense. Real mathematics is not about sensing, but following threads of 
      thought to a level where conclusions might seem quite senseless.
