"after it exists" does not necessarily mean it stopped existing.

Methinks, if it means anything at all, it just means that at the exact 
moment it is postulated that it's existence is unknown, so it either still 
structurally exists or it has cognitively and poststructurally stopped 
existing.

This duality points to the infamous post-existenialism, yet unknown to all 
javascripters but our undoubtful Thomas and his physical experiences.

Better, John, let us keep out of this apparently meaningless and absurt 
cyberworld and it's microcosmic inflation and keep our mind concentrated 
on more simple tasks like the theory of regex string manupulation and 
concatenative amalgamation.

Existentialism [is] a sense of disorientation and confusion in the face of 
an apparently meaningless or absurd world.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Existentialism.

Post-existentialism is [..] an attempt to force existentialism to take on 
its major critics - namely poststructuralism and cognitive science - 
through amalgamating them.

String theory posits that the elementary particles [..] are not 0-
dimensional objects, but rather 1-dimensional oscillating lines. [..]
This being a plausible mechanism for cosmic inflation. 
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String_theory>

Amalgamation is a now largely archaic term. [..] In the United States, it 
was partly replaced after 1863 by the term miscegenation. 
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amalgamation_(race)>

The amalgamation is a single C code file, named "sqlite3.c", that contains 
all C code for the core SQLite library and the FTS3 and RTREE extensions.

The incredulity of Thomas has been common since at least the 6th century, 
when it appears on the Monza ampullae. In those depictions, as later in 
the Baroque, the image was used to emphasize the importance of physical 
experiences.
