Last night I dreamed that 1+1=10 and this seemed perfectly logical in my dream state.
Now, think about it...

40 years ago I took a purple Osley and dreamed that everything was swirling colours.

Now, think about it.

Is there a point here?

The point is that there is no proof that the state of mind you are in when you are awake (or asleep or insane or intoxicated etc...) is the correct state of mind to properly perseive the universe's logical laws.

And there is no proof that when I see the colour red I am seeing the same thing as you do when you see the colour red.

As I asked ... is there point here?

The point - is that 1+1 MIGHT NOT BE EQUAL TO 2!

1 + 1 does = 10 base 2


the more man learns, the more he realises, he really does not know anything.
