Y Architecture
Greg et al,
What if the web architecture of the WishY site is always biforcated, in other words ony two links to each page? Would not preclude cross referencing links.

<<All of these avenues, it seems to me can be seen to multiplied in two in the sense that these questions address both the personal/Interior as well as a situation/exterior, in this case the collapse of the WTCs and the global problems this event is linked to. Enumerating some of these basic ideas it seems to me will help wishers expand the range possibilities of what a wish might be. It also might be important, for those who might get the wrong idea, to establish that this is not "just" about personal questions /concerns but also about addressing those surrounding this large public tragedy.
(Another interesting idea occurs to me here, that you have already suggested a your work on this topic, is that if wishbone is seen as bifurcated, it is unfolding not as a Platonic fold of originals and copies, gods and men, good and bad, us and them, but rather in a relational Lacanian mirror fold of self and other. The wish in Lower Manhattan joins/divides into "911" problems /questions" and "I" problems /questions. Each of these join/divide respectively into; what is the situations of the WTCs collapse?/what is our connection to Islamic Terrorism? and what is my problem?/what am I longing for that is not me? Am I thinking straight here?)>>

<< yes, good: we should exploit the link between the Pythagorean Y and
contemporary chaos theory, the latter including biforcation points when a
state changes (catastrophe). WTC has a Y in it (is spelled with a silent
Y), or it should be (a bifurcation point).
