Re: [s-d] [s-b] C Nomic


Here's your loophole, Tyler: none of the public displays have been 
challenged, so they are automatically considered approved. So all the 
players, socks, and other recorded objects exist in C.

We have to either fork the public displays to allow "this is C nomic" 
transaction assertions to create a divulging parallel universe, or 
neuter C nomic's influence to the point it might as well be culled.
