NEW WEB PROJECT EVERY-THING.NET DETERMINES EVERYTHING
http://every-thing.net
EVERY-THING.NET presents a unified perspective of every thought, person,
society, object and history by determining the number of their
possibilities. "Every person" is determined by combining the world's
supply of ova with the world's supply of sperm, and "every thought"
determines the number of different thoughts which are possible. "Every
object" determines the number of atoms containable in the universe and
the number of possible molecular structures of the universe. "Every
history" determines the number of histories which could have happened
over 13.5 billion years and "Every society" determines the number of
possible societies which could be formed from the current world
population.
Calculations for every-thing.net require over 4.28 googol octillion
(4.28 x 10^127) years of computer processing, a duration of time
3170000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
times greater than the history of the universe.
