Dear Mr. Lobster,
I note that our correspondent meister on _News Hound: What's new in the Puppy Linux kennel_ stated that you have unofficially pegged Puppy Linux release 1.0.7 with the cognominal moniker "tardis" Whereupon our correspondent meister asked the following: "Lobster[,] what in the world is a tardis?"
Well, I may be living in the Great OutBack but at least I listen to the B.B.C. and therefore know that _TARDIS_ is the quotidian name of a fictional time machine in the British science fiction television program _Doctor Who_, with _TARDIS_ being the acronym designating "Time And Relative Dimension(s) In Space." http://www.bbc.co.uk/doctorwho/classic/ ... ntro.shtml
I also refer our correspondent meister to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TARDIS
In the pursuit of the absolute truth about _TARDIS_ and being driven by my love of truth generally, I dug into the matter and through my due diligence discovered the following URL citations vis-

Re: Mr. Lobster and TARDIS
Thanks for all the research Raman 
I have also provisionally named Puppy 109 Puppy K9 after Dr Whos robotic dog. Much like the Tardis Puppy contains more on the inside than seems possible.
It is also the OS of choice for Open Source Time Travel, with Tmxxine Linux (based on Puppy) scheduled for release in 2008
By that time (so to speak) several developments may have taken place. In scientific terms this might include the discovery of the graviton and or Higgs Boson or some other comprehension of gravity. If gravity indeed exists in curved space bypassing conventional restrictions then we will be able to develop some key technologies. Already being developed are concepts so ridiculous that it takes virtual insanity to comprehend them. For example teleportation (being investigated by IBM) and entanglement (communication independent of distance).
Tmxxine is radical because it utilises the Rasayana concept of Uroborus (utilised in alchemy) This approach makes it scientific, artistic and at times spiritual. Uroborus is an ancient serpent symbol, denoting a snake swallowing or regurgitating its tail. In Buddhism this is 'dependent origination' or 'emptiness is form, form is emptiness'. In Kabbalah it is the lightening strike in which God creates the world and in that world his existence is reflected into Being.
In scientific terms credible theories of multi-brane universes, dark matter and closed curve technology are becoming mainstream. Tmxxine works on the understanding that imagination or mind generates some forms of reality. Not only are these alternatives actual. We intend to go there. In fact I have only partially just returned . . .

Non-Newtonian, Non-Euclidian Riemannian, and Our Cute Puppy
Dear Mr. Lobster,
I read your reply with great interest; I followed your posted link with alacrity, something I do when I sense the possibility of discovery.
Happily I was not disappointed.
From the very start of my relationship with Our Cute Little Adorable Puppy, I believed that Puppy had something of the Non-Newtonian, Non-Euclidian Riemannian about it. Why? you ask. Well, because Puppy wasn't like other puppies, Puppy was different, and I can prove it.
For example, I have it on reliable authority that Dr. Michio Kaku, co-founder of String Field Theory, good old chum of Professor Stephen Hawking, and the author of international best-selling books such as Hyperspace, Visions, Beyond Einstein, and Parallel Worlds, that Michio Kaku just loves Puppy to distraction. Imagine that, the guy who holds the Henry Semat Professorship in Theoretical Physics at the City University of New York and the long-time confabulatory buddy of Stephen Hawking thinks that Puppy creates its very own space-time warp. And stuff like that.
