So Glenn why don't you refine this a little so that we can have some
differential equations. Tell you what, lets let the trajectories of the die be
controlled by various laws of physics and then lets let the dice be bosons and
then lets let this somehow represent the beginning of the universe at a time
when bosons where available and well, perhps you could use some imagination....
