On Ignoring My Questions Profound and Dumb
"It is unfortunate that the first intelligent species to arise to have control of its own effects on the planet was from the tribal carnivores" E. O. Wilson (paraphrase)
"All I know on the global warming debate is that the woodland sunflowers should have come back in profusion along the river by now." From this blog authors manuscript.
Can we set up a system of communication with the mission to promote science that in not a democratic enterprise with reasonable balances and restraints on the arguments- more perhaps a Lockean model of liberty and good weight than later philosophies of propaganda and adversarial arbitrary rules of judgment, especially if the mission statement includes assertions of intent for education as a shared and trusted enlightenment?
Nothing guarantees an open and diverse model as this can stand up to others logically where there is a vital struggle of the worth and gridlock and wasted effort ever renewed - save that it adapts to the experience and depth of our understanding of reality. This suggests the seemingly surpassed and obsolete philosophies by default of possibilities present and past will not go away at least to the state of our technology like the uncertainty of interpretations of the quantum view or the certainty in laws like relativity and Lorentz in their remote reach.

The Quantum Logic of the Sentient Earth
L. Edgar Otto 11-13-09..
If
we
could see
each other
through our thousand eyes
Would
the
vision
have a life
God's eye of its own?
Of
course
quantum
mysteries
not a final word
The
more
we know
understand
the less some have said
What
do
we want
gathering
wild asparagus?
Do
we
not at
times find we
jumped across borders?
Have
we
evolved
be eaten, eat
collapsed light stalking?
Beamed
up
Scotty,
tunnel through
relativity
One
and
the same
Lorentz law
with decoherence
Our
souls
reach out
seeking love
persistent victims

Where Did the Speculation Go?
We
asked
if a
spinning thing
could rise, give us lift
I
read
it in
Popular
Science, I believed
Push
pull
impact
points between
centrifugal force
Your
own
lab tests
evidence
my report dismissed
epiphany, experiment
Does
that
correct?
teach magic?
respect shared science?
You
solved
theories
confident
you could sense truth
At
last
beyond
human doubts
through less certainty
Thrived
yet
erased
micro-worlds
multi-worlds my post
Your
eyes
narrowed
mine still dark
facts, your words of mouth?
If
spin's
contained
as you've thought
why cold positrons?
