Mu'd Point

With the paranoid suspicion we could be asking too much of mu here ("Does
this connection in Pynchon's text have the Buddha-Nature?"), I'd like to
offer a suggestion: this could be another dividing point between the
Western Enlightenment (science) and Buddhism's Enlightenment (satori)-- mu
to Buddha 
represents a variable of non-analysis-- to fill it with anything or nothing
is wrong, mu to physics represents a variable of analysis-- it is filled
with different values to produce practical results.
