precious signals

Signals! how to both make them and get to keep making them. So-- how to make the most, best.

thinking of Kay Sorg, my 8th grade science teacher, who once asked the question of whether boiling coffee and chilled cream should be combined early or late to longest preserve their combined heat, makes me think of the question of Shakuni's blood's best chance for revenge. His entire family was imprisoned and fed only enough for one with the hope they would all die. The solution to that thermodynamics problem was not to share the food but to feed it all to the youngest life, their best chance at revenge.

When should the cream's and coffee's heat be combined with the body to sustain its heat for the longest duration? I believe Kay Sorg faces the possibility of imprisonment now, and I'd like to present this and the other questions it brings up to her. (how many calls from prison are we now allowed? what precious signals!- to pass along a puzzle in moments that lasts for years (for me it's another ratio of 6 or 7 orders of magnitude!)!)

how to best bring the other world here. how to open the space most, longest, best/
Staying alive is part of it, and staying awake, and being rich might be too!
