Hypothesis:
It may be possible to overcome, on a limited scale, this fundamental limitation of temporal mechanics as we can make some limited inferences from data we know has particularly high potential for entropy. If, for example, we see in neutrino grab 25Oct1998/113A that Alice is going to run into Bob at 1:25pm on 31Oct1998, the we can be assured that this is almost certain not to occur at the exact moment indicated. To date, we have relied heavily on averaging the results of multiple grabs and adding 3 additional neutrino detectors at [redacted].
That said, we can make some common-sense inferences, even at T minus 6d3h. If Alice is scheduled to spend only 2-3 minutes walking a rope line in Little Rock and a cluster of neutrino grabs directly indicates the potential for interaction between 1:25pm and 1:27pm, we can likely forego alerting Alice’s protective detail, even though Bob has ill intentions toward Alice. We know from experience that the overwhelming probability is in favor of Bob’s car getting stuck in traffic, Bob changing his mind, or Bob catching a cold, rather than any specific prediction proving accurate. Thus, we can take a wait-and-see posture and alert Alice’s detail only when nearer time-horizon grabs recommend it (36h standard) and avoid crying wolf; damaging our own credibility in the eyes of our counterparts. This technique could reap benefits, especially when unforeseen solar storms impinge on [redacted’s] operational capability. This can be termed Passive Causal Funneling.
Another technique that can be used to guard against periods of unacceptable neutrino noise is Active Causal Funneling. With Active Causal Funneling, t/x count is deliberately increased or decreased in order to “corral” desired outcomes within a probabilistic range. While many consider these techniques to be outmoded since our surprise receipt of ultralong-horizon intelligence concerning the RAINMAKER event in Sept. 1995 (still three years away as of the time of this writing), our newfound long-range foresight does not obviate the need to be able to effectively intuit, assess, and report those CRITIC events that frequently hinge on the whims of mentally unstable individuals and freak accidents.
As an asides, this author is further perplexed by [redacted] personnel’s cavalier attitude esp. considering [redacted’s] decision to allow RAINMAKER to proceed despite high projected casualties (~4,100) and the treasonous nature of events being planned by [RC], [LS], et. al., regardless of any potential gains. Many of us on the project are skeptical about the true motives of those involved in RAINMAKER. Despite these concerns, we firmly believe that the secrecy of [redacted] will continue to provide the United States with a richly deserved strategic advantage for decades to come.
