First Post! Dr. Bruce Bueno de Mesquita

I have some quirky ideas about philosophy and how everything (and I really mean everything) works. Mostly I think that everything is mathematical, and more complex than we can really comprehend. Enter theoretical physics. I'm sure I'll write more about this later. Anyway, this being the basis for my fundamental belief on how the universe works, I was very interested to see the ad for the new History Channel special on "The Next Nostradamus". According to the commercial he has come up with a formula (here's that math) that predicts events.

To the web!

Apparently this man is Dr. Bruce Bueno de Mesquita of New York University, and he is not some new bible code weirdo, but a game theorist. He has spent 25 years developing a computer program to predict international events. The CIA uses him as a resource and according most sources, he's right 90 percent of the time. I don't know what they used to define right and wrong, so take that with a grain of salt, but this guy has really caught my attention.

If there is one overriding mathematical law dictating the universe, maybe this guy has cracked a part of it. I'll watch the show and do a little more digging and probably post about this one again.
