parallel universe

Elvo tells me that "meeting yourself" is a Flemish expression for a close call. When he first commented on it after braking at high speed on his bike, I thought he was describing some quantum mechanical phenomenon of travelling at a high enough velocity to meet yourself...

In a parallel universe?

I felt as if I'd been plopped down in one when I read that Bush is advocating alternatives to oil.

But maybe I've just been thinking too much about the next Trek revival.
