=== 2002 523.1 LEVIN, Janna  West Slope ===
Skimmed after page 57.   Autobiography mixed with speculation about repeated structure spacetime.
So, why would the multiple connections be geometrically simple?  If so, how would we know?

Unlikely; 

 . https://arxiv.org/abs/astro-ph/0310233 rules out topology to 24 Gpc.
 . https://arxiv.org/abs/1206.2939 rules out topology at an angle >10° to 26 GPc (98.5% of the last scattering surface).

=== 2006 LEVIN, Janna Beaverton Biography ===

Strange pseudo-fictional mixed biography of Turing and Gödel.  Skimmed most of the Turing bits, the Gödel stuff is too depressing.
