Clearly this is quite different from the 2010 timewave obtained with either the Kelley number set or the Watkins number set, so the Sheliak number set cannot be called simply a "correction". It is quite different, and no reason has ever been given for why it is so different from the timewave originally revealed to Terence McKenna, except perhaps that the Sheliak construction is completely misconceived.
2010 in the Timewave With the Kelley number set:
The first higher major resonance:
A trigrammatic resonance:
2010 with the Watkins number set (the Kelley number set without the "half-twist"):
Very close to the Kelley timewave but not exactly the same.
2010 with the Sheliak number set:
As noted above, the Watkins number set is the Kelley number set without the "half-twist". Some have inferred from the name given to the Watkins number set that Matthew Watkins discovered the half-twist. This is not so. Peter Meyer discovered this in 1994. Later, when naming the four number sets, he gave the name "Watkins" to the Kelley number set without the half-twist, since he felt it would be immodest to name it after himself, and Matthew Watkins had made a contribution to Timewave Zero theory by condensing the construction (from the I Ching) of the numbers in the Kelley set to a single formula. Ths formula (stated in the programming language MAPLE) is given in his article Autopsy for a Mathematical Hallucination?. In that article Matthew Watkins quotes the footnote in the user manual that Peter Meyer wrote in 1994 for an earlier version of the Timewave Zero software:
This is the mysterious "half twist". The reason for this is not well understood at present and is a question which awaits further research.Watkins concludes that, because no reason could be given (by Terence McKenna or by anyone else) for the existence of the half-twist in the original construction, "the 'timewave' cannot be taken to be what McKenna claims it is." But since he does not say exactly what McKenna claims it is, we are left not knowing quite what to make of this conclusion.
It should also be noted that the construction of the fractal timewave is a two-step process: (i) The construction of the 384 numbers (originally those of the Kelley number set) and (ii) the construction of the fractal timewave by a 'fractal transform' of those numbers. The Watkins formula captures only the first step. The second step is explained in detail in articles contained on the CD-ROM.
