I have always understood... UNIVERSE as...
UNI = ONE as in the sense of a single entity, but also in the sense of "whole," " integral" and "complete." VERSE = POEM or SONG. So, literally... UNIVERSE = ONE SONG Given the late, Carl Sagan... ...spoke of everything from galaxies to dandelions as being made of "star stuff" ...everything and every being as part of a great cosmic conciousness ...used musical metaphors numerous times to communicate his sense of wonder and awe of the universe in his "COSMOS" series. ... It looks like I'm in good company. :) As far as the "If the universe is the answer, then what is the question?" issue is concerned... maybe we could get Alex Trebek to help us with this one? ;) Ciao!
