Re: CGoL population sequences
It could be interesting to do a larger census and look at evolutionary sequences producing very rare "population sequence tails". This might lead to finding some uncommon spark that would be useful in some way, without knowing beforehand what it is. Somewhat related: before the octohash databases c...
