Take the red pill -- read Steven Lehar's A Cartoon Epistemology.
(Found at Rudy Rucker's blog.)
"A stunning survey of the latest evidence for intelligent life on Mars. Mac Tonnies brings a thoughtful, balanced and highly accessible approach to one of the most fascinating enigmas of our time."
--Herbie Brennan, author of Martian Genesis and The Atlantis Enigma
"Tonnies drops all predetermined opinions about Mars, and asks us to do the same."
--Greg Bishop, author of Project Beta
"I highly recommend the book for anyone interested in the search for extra-terrestrial artifacts, and the political intrigues that invariably accompany it."
--David Jinks, author of The Monkey and the Tetrahredron
"Mac Tonnies goes where NASA fears to tread and he goes first class."
--Peter Gersten, former Director of Citizens Against UFO Secrecy

An interesting but totally fallacious take on reality. However, the Hacker's Dictionary tells me that this is the way virtually all computer programmers (and those who wish they were) view the world and themselves. Frankly, I find this view limiting and more than a bit depressing if you really start thinking about it. Read some Husserl, Heidegger, Sartre, Merleau-Ponty et al. and the come back to this. (Heidegger is especially good at logically demonstrating that the world as we experience it is not a representation of anything.)
