In [[2507]], Carver met a fifteen-year-old doctoral candidate named [[Catherine Elizabeth Halsey|Catherine Halsey]] while attending an academic social mixer. Carver was discussing "the matrix mechanics of the socio-and politico-economic vectors of human expansion" when Halsey, who saw his ideas as genius but his algorithm implementation as obsolete, attempted to correct him. He had used only [[List of "seven" references in Halo|seven]] dimensional parameters in his calculations; Halsey claimed he needed sixteen. Carver did not appreciate being challenged by a young upstart. | In [[2507]], Carver met a fifteen-year-old doctoral candidate named [[Catherine Elizabeth Halsey|Catherine Halsey]] while attending an academic social mixer.
