Lost/The Hanso Foundation/Mathematical Forecasting Initiative
The Mathematical Forecasting Initiative is one of the active projects being run by The Hanso Foundation. MFI's goal is to understand and model the mathematic possibilities of human events for the betterment of humanity.
Information for this entry is gleaned from The Hanso Foundation.

Information
The Mathematical Forecasting Initiative uses cutting-edge theory to anticipate the twists and turns of humanity's story. By understanding and modeling the mathematic probability of seismic human events, The Hanso Foundation can illuminate the path ahead and provide a true road map to the betterment of humanity.
Press Release
COPENHAGEN, DENMARK, FRIDAY, 01/05/06
The Hanso Foudtion is pleased to announce a significant breakthrough in population growth modeling.
Beginning ten years ago, in partnership with the government of the developing African nation of [DELETED], Hanso Foundation researchers provided a detailed schedule of population growth to country officials with analyses of how a growing citizenry would affect national security, employment rates, and other pertinent factors.
The Hanso Foundation's model has allowed [DELETED] to prosper in its growing population, with a 40% rise in GDP, a 20% drop in unemployment, and a significant reduction in preventable illness. The capital [DELETED] has become a significant center of commerce for the region, and urban planners have expanded major city centers while increasing standard of living.
Potential applications for our new population model are as far-reaching as they are varied. The Hanso Foundation thanks its tireless mathematicians, as well as Hanso, for this great gift to humanity.
The Lost Experience
- Mugato Letter: On the MFI Forecast Map, click the syringe over Italy and enter "10.4". Click the dollar sign over the U.S. and enter "42,000". Click the human figure over Sudan and enter "2.55". After entering those figures a circle will appear over the Indian Ocean. A letter will appear from Peter Thompson to Minister of the Interior Mugato. The contents of the letter are mostly blacked out, but what remains reads: "crucial that we do not appear to be complicit in your use of our population model to predict the growth of your tribal enemies -- especially if you intent on using our predictions to launch a pre-emptive strike. We must have plausible deniability."
