Well, that is an interesting notion. Nihilism of that sort creates the perfect Catch-22 situation. Exactly how does one go about proving--proofs being rooted in the acceptance of causality--that causality does not exist? Needless to say, Toffler did not pursue that interesting philosophical question too far. After all, he had only an hour to speak. It is difficult to dismantle the foundations of knowledge and still have time to warn your audience of the third great revolution that is sweeping the world...

Cleary: So what's the story, Mike? Do the Terriers have some sort of jinx...
