+TREATISE ON LITERATURE AS "SPOOKY
+ACTION FROM A DISTANCE"
+
+There is this thing called "spooky
+action at a distance."  Einstein
+mentioned it first I believe.  It
+is about how two electrons can act
+like they are right next to each
+other although they are very far
+away (lightyears even).  For a long
+time this puzzled scientists until
+someone (not Einstein) figured out
+that maybe the universe is a
+hologram or projection.  So what
+appears to be very far apart in
+the hologram might actually be
+very close in the substrate
+reality.
+    I want to talk about this
+effect in literature.  In literature
+the writer writes words on a
+substrate (paper) and later the
+reader reads the same words off
+the substrate.  Although the writer
+and reader might be very far apart
+from each other in time and space,
+they experience the same effect
+from reading the words.  Even the
+writer reading his own words after
+he has written them becomes a
+reader and feels who he was at
+that time, like a ghost.
+
+PROBLEMS:
+    Maybe the substrate isn't
+paper it's what the writing is
+about.  Where is the hologram?  Are
+physics and literature comparable?
+What if the universe isn't a
+hologram what then?
