Regarding this hermeneutical puzzle: I thought Eli's message was a veiled
reference to the famous TED Talk by Hans Rosling, "The Magic Washing
Machine":
http://www.ted.com/talks/hans_rosling_and_the_magic_washing_machine?language=en

We cannot be sure, however, that the Ajitasenavyākaraṇa was one of the
books that Hans pulled out of the washing machine at the end.
