Somewhere During the Narrator’s Intense Discussion of Poincare’, He and Chris Get Back On the Highway, But We Are Not Told When or Where.
“ Poincare’ laid down some rules: There is a hierarchy of facts. .. The more general a fact, the more precious it is. Those which serve many times are better than those which have little chance of coming up again. Biologists, for example, would be at a loss to construct a science if only individuals and no species existed, and if heredity didn’t make children like parents. .. Which facts are likely to reappear? The simple facts. How to recognize them? Choose those that seem simple. Either this simplicity is real or the complex elements are indistinguishable. In the first case we’re likely to meet this simple fact again either alone or as an element in a complex fact. The second case too has a good chance of recurring since nature doesn’t randomly construct such cases.“(Cont.next)
Heading west on the way out of Hall, MT We have thus finished the narrator’s “half page” describing the travel from Three Forks, MT to Hall, MT, the last mentioned town on Rt 1 out of Anaconda, MT. The ZMM Route would naturally follow Rt 1 prior to Missoula, Mt.
