Global Warming Ramble

"models do not equate with empirical evidence. As Heisenberg’s principle warns us, models can do no more than project a present limited understanding into the future."

Butler Shaffer tackles global warming at LRC today. As this is one of Dr. Lenny's favorite topics, it would be remiss to not comment - Shaffer delivers one good chaotic though after another. It seems obvious to me that if we allow people to time to think, they will ask the right questions. Everybody develops micro-models in their minds that adjust to the bigger picture and attune the image.

Image building is something that takes time, like good art, where the pieces of the puzzle get added in turn. I got to watch some a true artist in action last weekend at the museum - i like the philosophy and style of expression without words. The image of models that Shaffer brings up is very telling of the state of the status quo in science. Back to Butler on scientific anarchy

"I am aware that most scientists cling to a faith in conclusions that have been widely accepted within their respective communities, and angrily react against any heresies – however well-documented and reasoned – that arise from skeptical minds ... most members of the scientific world openly embrace the views of the brilliant science philosopher, Paul Feyerabend, who challenged the idea that there was “a” scientific method ... He advocated a theoretical anarchism in the search for truth, believing that such an approach was more consistent with human nature than was adherence to rigid rules of inquiry."

It would make sense to allow each person to think and foster their own ideas of where to go with that thinking. When people are ready to learn, dr. lenny can help seek a natural means of applying science to developing thought patterns as another alternative facet to the dimensions of life. Soaking in hot water allows one to meditate on life - and Ashland in the converse of the Roseburg in the life view. The tough nutz to crack are here, in the world of nature, the systems thinking necessary is broken at the apex of the current period and knotthink dominates.

One other note - i have again been asked for access to the archives - i have been doing some grouping and once i index my groupings, i will give a code that will allow one to unlock the treasure chest. But it will require use of GPS cache and other techno toys to make it relevant. Since most of life doesn't blog, dr lenny will be attempting to publish a book in some form, so access will incorporate a data mining lesson that encourages dr. lenny to his task.

Had an interesting (and painful) migrane last night, but i used an experimental technique from Ramchandran and i think i figured some things howdt how to move the pain to a different arena of the brain. Now if i can move it to a bone or something that feels no pain, then perhaps i have new clinical insight into the better function of that grey matter thing that we keep in rest status all too often.
