Re: The Fundamental Theory and the Three Fundamental Laws

A conclusive law formed by these 3 laws is a considerable 4th subsequential law:

I have not read the rest of the OP in detail, but was immediately struck by the illogicality of the 4th law. This assertion does NOT follow from the three laws. What is knowable is an entirely different question from what is. Defining what is does not make it knowable.

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.
