I went on a micro zen learning trip today...

Starting with Number stations and the chatter of spies and drug dealers on the airwaves, to MI6 and MI5, to Canadian wire intelligence, to ECHELON, to UKUSA, to a UK Band with Canada in their name that makes techno music that includes hidden messages and codes.

So what's the point? Nothing really... but with half an hour, and internet connection and a fun resource like wikipedia you recognize the power of hypertext as an ideal zen learning tool.

You also start to see nodal points and facinating patterns and interconnections between much seemingly unrelated information.
