     TEXT: EXTRACT. DOCUMENT CONTAINS 2 DIAGRAMS.
     IN ADDITION TO THE CLASSIC STATES OF MATTER (SOLID, LIQUID, GAS), IT
     IS NOW ASSUMED THAT 99 PERCENT OF THE KNOWN UNIVERSE IS IN A FOURTH
     STATE, PLASMA. THE FOUR FORMS ARE INTERCHANGEABLE, BEING IN
     EQUILIBRIUM WITH THE FIELD (ENERGY), ALSO A FORM OF EXISTENCE OF
     MATTER. EINSTEINS THEORY OF RELATIVITY (E= MC SQUARED) CONFIRMS A
     VERY OLD CONCEPT ATTRIBUTED TO LAO ZI, A FAMOUS PARSONAGE OF ANCIENT
     CHINA (6TH CENTURY BC), WHO STATED THAT THERE IS AN ACTION IN THE
     UNIVERSE A SINGLE LAW (DAO) WHICH MAY BE MANIFESTED IN NUMEROUS
     FORMS THAT CAN BE CHANGED ONE INTO ANOTHER. THE EIGHT TRIGRAMS
     ATTRIBUTED TO FU XI TONE OF THE LEGENDARY EMPERORS OF ANCIENT CHINA
     SAID TO HAVE LIVED 3 MILLENIA BEFORE OUR ERA) ARE SATD TO EXPRESS
     THE CONTINUOUS CHANGES OF THE UNIQUE PRINCIPLE, WHICH, AS WE WOULD
     SAY TODAY, ASSUMED THE FORMS OF SOLID, LIQUID, GAS, PLASMA AND FOUR
     INTERMEDIATE STATES. THE EIGHT TRIGRAMS ARE SYMMETRICAL AND EACH IS
     MADE UP OF INTERACTION OF TWO PRINCIPLES OPPOSED IN DIRECTION BUT
     COMPLEMENTARY AND IMPOSSIBLE TO SEPARATE: THE POSITIVE PRINCIPLE
     YANG AND THE NEGATIVE PRINCIPLE YIN. IF YANG IS SYMBOLIZED BY THE
     FIGURE 1, AND YIN BY 0, THE SEQUENCE OF THE TWO SYMBOLS AND THEIR
     COMBINATIONS ARE SIMILAR TO THE BINARY SYSTEM CURRENTLY USED IN THE
     FIELD OF COMPUTERS.
