ADAM as usual will be useless without EVE. In the process I would earn a million bucks and write a book naming it 'Was ADAM influenced by the evil serpent of the burgeoning IT platforms on non-dependent-platform-neutral architectures', by which I shall woo some clueless multibillion dollar business to use EVE as their IT industry platform and call it a success story. This was the road-map I had defined for myself and my start-up.
"Well what is your plan?", my best friend, the sweaty Gorilla had visited my garage-workplace.
I showed him my roadmap.
Indeed roadmaps are just a set of arrows with some words in-between creating some geometrical shape, and justifying it with some non-understandable technical-business-jargon.
"Come-on! I thought you really wanted to do something special not earn a quick buck!"
"I never had any noble intentions!"
"Indeed... what say we create a operating-system for magic"
"Huh... what!"
The sweaty-Gorilla munched more when he was excited and I heard very little of any words in-between the munches.
"Well what if we created an interface to manipulate the atoms in space with light to create computing without any equipment.. imagine no harddrive, no RAM, no CPU, no video card, no cables, nothing but the particles in space and light - nunchaku-harry potter type wand- interface with a holographic monitor, add voice recognition, using a non tonal language- voila a prototype is ready!", he was drenched in sweat.
"Wow! What an idea! Goof ! All that is already happening with all the a-i-phone-mate 3-4-5..n G stuff and we have to ultimately rely on end-consumers to buy the product. Consumers are fickle, never make anything for the end consumer, it will be a flop show unless we are already a multi-zillion dollar established business with some top-Hollywood\hot WTA(Womens Tennis Assoc) star advertising for us! Its the enterprise stuff that sells now!"
"huh, what the..."
"Tell me something outrageous, plain idiotic, simple to implement but big money..."
"Get in to real estate.... sell space... with all the mortgage crisis you can buy a lot of space cheap now!", he had a point there.
"hmmm.... why don't we sell space... literally space, galaxies, stars, nebulas, we could just have a Google Earth type interface and sell em online, starting at a one cent star to a max of one dollar Suns... what is the legality of it all!"
"What is the use of such a space now we cannot even go out to a space station orbiting just a few miles above Earth?!! Legality.. crap! We don't even know if we can communicate with another alien race... and imagine a alien race claiming the Sun in our Solar system as theirs by their laws?!!"
"mm......", I went in to my dreamy sojourn.

In the not too distant future....
Earth created geysers everywhere and from them appeared bubble, spherical emitting light-ray creatures possessing a highly evolved intelligence who had traveled to Earth on a parallel-verse.
They broadcasted a message, 'The material emitting light rays that which you call by name Sun has been rendered to us as per laws of Bubble space.
