You are right about the encyclopedia as long as there is no use for it. I
believe that in a couple generations it could be useful like a thesaurus or a
medical encyclopedia. eventually the data will prove itself. LILA was the
first step. There will be other books that support the theory, it just will
take some time. I can be satisfied if we could start a movement that doesn't
reach public ears for another 200 years.
