If you liked that, play the game Braid ( http://braid-game.com ). I won't give any spoilers, but it's a $9.95 purchase so just go out and buy it already. :)

That's strange but I never made the connection until you mentioned it! Braid is one of my all time favorite games too!

Edit: And as of yesterday it is available in the Ubuntu software center.

Thanks a lot for the heads up on Braid being available through Ubuntu software center, I just bought and installed it now - lovely game.

Lovely poem as well. I really enjoyed "I Am a Strange Loop", guess I should get around to reading GEB as well.
