Chronology of what was authored in the year 2015
A funny thing happened on the way to building Virtual Reality.
The summer of 1990 in Seattle at HITL was my bliss.
Day one: William with interns seated in a circle began with, "Build us VR." With that, he leaned back, crossed his arms and smiled.
There was a moment before anyone spoke.

William smiled.
The conversation quickly covered rules, pattern-matching, sensors and receptors, etc.
I interrupted, "But what is a reality, in the generic sense?"
William's smile grew bigger.
