Oh, Jon,  

In sofaras I am able I read this paper.  I don't see how it relates to the
Peircian principle that most sequences of events are random, but that
organisms (including physicists) should be tuned to the ones that aren't.  

I am still wondering if there is any relation between this paper and those
endless lectures on the relation between discontinuity and complexity in the
SFI summer school.  Here is how I get there.  Every real number has an
infinity of information, which I read as, every real number has an infinite
number of digits.  So the numbers that physicists use, which are necessarily
truncated, aren't real numbers.   Did I get anywhere close?
