How is MIR 3 coming along?

MIR v3 is coming along at the pace I want it to, which is to say, I am completing 2 statements per day I work on it.  Since each goal usually has 1 statement that completes it, I can on average achieve slightly less than 2 goals finished per day.  We have approximately 13 days left if I work on it every day at that pace, but I don't think I will be able to keep up that pace perfectly because not only do some goals require 2+ statements, I also have to build a Top Secret Something Else that is also very important.  Today was spent on Top Secret Something Else, for example.  Most days I plan to spend working on both for 4+ hours each.  So MIR v3 is at least 13 days from finished being scripted.  But it is looking really good.  I am very pleased so far, even if some of these goals seem impossible to script sometimes.

Man oh man,I Know MIR v3 is gonna be a knocked it outta the Park,revised,updated,newly created program. wow.
 That  Top Secret Something Else - Man that sounds like....hummm....naturally people are curious... what the heck is it I wonder... will   some one levitate, gravitate-Meditate..stimulate....? walk thru walls,walk on water...fly? Ha!! its just fascinating...must be powerful. required privacy ,both understood and respected. Let me ask this  is" TSSE" powerful? will it be something that will make the programs even more effective?

You guys certainly do have active imaginations.  : I am attempting to make the secret something else as powerful as possible, while also making it do what it's supposed to do.  It's been in the works a long time because the design specs are very complex and specific, and very difficult to achieve.  Last year, six prototypes in a row were built and discarded.  I stopped working on it altogether in October or November because I could see that the timing was simply not right.  

Now I'm working on it again, but it's still a greased pig to wrestle with.  Not because it's trying to make you walk on water or fly, but because it is extremely difficult to make it do all of what it is supposed to do all at once.  Some of the design specs require tech I haven't finished developing yet.  

To say this program is frustrating is an understatement, but the reason it is frustrating is because of a quirk of how the subconscious mind works, not the program.  It's about like trying to get a rainbow of infinite colors to express itself in only seven.  The rainbow simply is what it is, and that is that.  It can no more limit itself to seven colors than the sun can go around the earth.  So I have to find a way to get seven colors out of it while working with the laws of physics as they exist, so to speak.  Been working on this one piece of tech for many years now, and in this case it is critical to have it included in this program - because of how powerful it (the program) is.

Unfortunately, this is sort of a double edged and double bladed sword.  It works and at the same time, doesn't work because of how powerful the program is; and it is attempting to metaphorically make a rainbow express itself in exactly 7 colors.  I'm not sure it's even possible, but it has to be done to make this program what it needs to be.  Otherwise, I will never release it, because it will not be safe to use.

If this program affects the others, it will be indirectly.

 Wow!! Man thats "Huge", like one of My very advanced teachers would say," its Like Trying to Quantify,the Un.Quantifiable. hard to put the Ocean in a dixie cup,aint it?? Thank you for the magnificent rendering of the Cononels
 Top Secret Special Seasoning of hetbs and spices;-)
6 prototypes down da tubes. Dang,Man!! This is some heavy hitting technology!! Really do hope,least down the road,this puppy gets released!!
