Yeah, I had to look it up too. In my couple minutes of searching, this is what I turned up: http://laforge49.blogspot.com/2006/04/rolonic-world-view.html
The idea is interesting on a conceptual level, and my minutes of poking around have not made me an expert, but it looks like for a lot of problems this isn't going to be extremely helpful. I'd need to see some real concrete examples of working applications in a variety of spaces to understand exactly why this is a good idea. Objects and OOP have more or less "taken over" the software industry because they are simple, and are usable for many general programming problems. This doesn't appear to share those properties, as there are a lot of assumptions built into the concepts of ledgers, and what state means, and so on. So unless other evidence presents itself, I'm going to have to go with No.

What the heck is rolonics? I've been a professional software engineer for nearly 30 years, and never heard of it, so I'd guess no way.
