   Paramind and the Internet
	Beginning in April 1994 Paramind Brainstorming Software has
announced a project for the Internet .  Paramind users wordwide will be
contributing new idea-lists to this site, browsing what others have done,
and even downloading ideas that they find interesting.  This will be based
around the new science of telical word-interaction exhaustion.  The theory
of telical word- interaction exhaustion states that progress does not have
to be held in check by the tinkering of man, but by re-thinking the
discovery process.  By exhausting the meaningful interactions of words, we
will be able to find out all manner of novel directions, and discover
answers to problems that have been plaguing us for years. 
	Our dictionary contains all the words that the books of our
library contains.  All our libraries is the interaction of the words of
our dictionary in logical meaningful ways.  If we were to exhaust the
logical meaningful interactions of our words we would come up with new
discoveries that we are bound to stumble upon in the future by
pre-existing means. 
	We must have an unbaised look at the toolbox of language for being
the seeds of all possible knowledge available to us.  We can't put
restrictions on the amorphous form of the new.  The logical quantum-leap
in thought is the idea that ideas can be treated as a plasticity and only
by examining huge quantities of idea-lists will we grow faster than how
our minds currently experience breakthroughs.  There must be some rules
and these rules are provided by the context sensitive copy-merge technique
and word-category parsing (both found in the Paramind Brainstorming
program). 
	It is this program that can radically alter the speed in which we
arrive at better solutions in medical research, ecological solutions for
manufacturing science, even social mediation.  In fact, the cognitive
expansion of whatever problem ails us can be helped by this technique. 
	The process of telical word-interaction exhaustion develops a
change in the perceptions of potential reality, the value of how things
could be compared to how things are. We need to see how the future could
be, the best possible scenarios. 
	Paramind and the Internet Site for Computer Generated writing is a
tool for seeing potential reality. The new science of telical
word-interaction exhaustion is a description of all that could be, because
it is an unbiased use of pure language. It is a use of language outside
the mind of man. It is Artificial Intelligence planned out by both man and
computer. 
	Why the Internet?  Never before has there been a means of hooking
up together people who have the insight to achieve what we before have
thought to be the impossible.  This idea can get so advanced that there
must be a networking of those who can use it and discuss it with others. 
The Internet offers complete indexing facilities so that other uses of
Paramind can look at the work done by Paramind users around the world. 
	This Internet site must contain a database of ideas that are new,
useful and unique, ideas which are not quite incorporated into our present
world. Science fiction novels are a great area for such ideas.  Any other
area producing such ideas are welcome.  Idea-lists from this "new, useful
and unique" idea database would produce valuble library findings.  Imagine
thousands of variations of the most exciting science-fiction ideas, ideas
which have only been touched upon in a few sentences by science-fiction
authors. 
	To accept telical word-interaction exhaustion does not mean that
one thinks the people who use this technique actually believe that they
will exhaust the meaningful interactions of all words but use it as an
exposition of any given area. Telical word-interaction exhaustive
exposition is the name of a research technique based on this theory. 
	We can get at a framework for the meaningful exhaustion of the
interaction of words. If we draw out the basic linguistic truth that ideas
can be broken down into words, and the different interactions of words
equalling different ideas, we must admit that by an exhaustion of the
interaction of words, we will be able to basically discover all ideas
available to us.  This is the premise of the telical exhaustion (or
purposeful exhaustion) of the interaction of words.  All humantarian
research in medicine, social theory, politics, and mediation can be helped
by this technique because it helps people think in a truly unbiased way
with the criteria they need and want to use.  We use our minds to
associate a few ideas here and there, and our mind catalogues the
information that we have learned. But there are things that our mind has
not learned, there are things that it has forgotten, and there are
possibilities in which it is unable to see connections and new directions. 
	Eventually, this site may become so large with findings that it
may look indeed like a place where there is the holding for the exhaustion
of the interaction of words!  Paramind is an unique brainstorming program
for Windows that operates on the principle of the "exhaustion of the
interactions of words."  It is totally configurable and can be used to
logically expand any idea from that needed by research institutes to
advertising.  It comes with a database of 200 related word chains, and you
can add as many of your own as you like.  You can type or paste in text
from any Windows program into its editor to logically expand in any way. 
It works with the "merge"  routine used in such products as word
processors to do mail merges.  It has several features using this routine
and querying the database for words related to your sentence.  There is a
new version of the Paramind Brainstorming program out which now includes
features that were only in registered versions.  With registration one
will get 300 more word chains and some editing features not in shareware
release.  You can get Paramind from /pub/micro/pc-stuff/ms-windows/writing
at sunsite.unc.edu, or at ftp.demon.co.uk in the pub/ibmpc/windows/editors
or by webbing to my site listed below.  It is also in the Simtel library
and Fica mirrors.  The file is called paramd15.zip
