|    I had a weird dream Saturday night. It was about "German Calculus". Never heard of that before, so in my dream I
|    looked it up on the 'net and went to the Wikipedia page for German Calculus. According to my dreamt Wikipedia
|    page, German Calculus would be more accurately characterized under Economics than mathematics. The page
|    explained (yes, I was reading a Wikipedia page in my dream, so weird) that the idea is that wars serve as a
|    critical impetus to move economic production forward. The lack of a war and war machine slowly sees a nation
|    slide into contraction, recession, depression. Then, a war so jolts the economy into production and expansion
|    that it goes into a massive new economic level. I know this is controversial stuff, and I'm not picking on
|    Germany, that's just what the Wikipedia page said. Then I woke up. I know, weird.

The more I think about it, the weirder is seems. In my dream, I came across "German Calculus" and didn't know
what it was. So, in my dream, I looked it up and read the article on Wikipedia about it. As I read it, I was
like, "Oh, okay, I see what it's supposed to mean." But, the concept was already in my mind...my mind created
the Wikipedia article that I was "reading" and it didn't come into my consciousness until I'd "read" it. Very
strange.
