"Why do you suppose this article was written?"

I'm sure a big part of it is that it refers to a "pre-discovery" of something Penrose discovered more recently. Penrose may not be a familiar name to non-scientists, but he's a really major British physicist. Check out his lastest book _The Road To Reality_, it's excellent. So just finding anything that was done a long time ago, that looks like something Penrose has done, even a superficial resemblance, will get articles and headlines in the scientific media. Penrose is that famous.

I was kind of wondering if it wasn't part of the Muslim CAIR public relations/propoganda program to actually try to convince the free world that we really would be better off under the tyranny of Muslim fundamentalism after all, so that we could at least continue to live with a live head on our shoulders and continue using it to literally think with... Just wondering...

Sounds like that Penrose dude's got the world on a string, wrapped around his finger... "pre-discovery?" Does that prove, once again that there's nothing new under the sun? The Muslim fundamentalists can no longer find anything new under the moon!!!
