My general plan: Finish up notating the rules for the algebra of Bayes nets in terms of blackbox rewriting rules for monoidal category string diagrams. Use category theory to find any rules JSW might have missed. Use even more category theory to figure out where any useful universal properties fall out, like his sense of isomorphism. Use yet more category theory to talk about this stuff in full generality, not just for Bayes nets, and probably even get cleaner or stronger proofs.

Some keywords that came up: Morita equivalence, Petri net, virtual double category, formal category theory, Lawvere metric spaces

fox tricks; the power of illusion and its many uses

#1) many forms - humanoid, beast, and monster alike - can be assumed with varying difficulty, but in human disguise, the fox can still be spotted by the presence of a fluffy tail..

#2) a duplicate, or 'shadow clone' is capable of striking with the same solid force of the real thing -- if said duplicate is believed to be real by the target being attacked. once revealed, the duplicate will dissipate in a cloud of smoke.

#3) a handheld object can be temporarily disguised as another (simple) object and take on its properties. a twig can assume the form of a sword, for example, and slice just as readily as the genuine article. if the fox is disarmed, the illusion will be immediately dispelled.
