Woke up early this morning and in the world between worlds where some of the best insights come into view, I discovered one of the greater epiphanies of my decades-long study of ternary logic, infinity, zero, and world peace. I was striding through the fields of pure light and clarity -- the miracle […]
Phlosiphy and Langwidge
This "Phlosiphy and Langwidge" category is for when what I write doesn't fit into my general pursuit of Math and Logic. It usually fits here in the closely-related Phlosafie and Langwij category. It's slightly ironic that I would have a category separating these, since there really is a lot of overlap between Math, Logic, Philosophy, and Language, for me.
"Causality is in the mind"
I started transcribing a video because Dr. David Hawkins was talking about quantum mechanics in a way very similar to what I've been researching -- and he's spot on -- but then he took it in a completely different direction than I expected. This transcript is from the end of the first video linked […]
On the 'why' of things not just the 'how' of things
We do love when our own internal thought processes get confirmed by others. Aside from the shared joy of discovery, it tends to validate other related ideas which haven't been put into words yet. So I'm happy to see this idea coming from someone with Russell's reputation. I had made the observation […]
Language alters our experience of time
Not only does this article talk about one of my favorite subjects, the Aymara language, and how it is different from other languages, but it's loaded with gems like this: But Spanish-Swedish bilinguals are flexible. When prompted with the Swedish word for duration (tid), they estimated time using […]
Hebrew vs. Greek Thought
So we've been looking at binary vs ternary, intuitive vs logical, now here's Hebrew vs Greek thought: https://vimeo.com/227703921/3272b49eb6 Hebrew and Greek are two totally different ways of seeing things. Greek is more abstract, linear. Hebrew is more intimate, concrete. Several distinct […]
In which I discover Barfield's Final Participation and am delighted
Barfield calls the early peoples' common sense "original participation," in that with their sense perceptions there was an extra-sensory participation with the object being sensed. While it is difficult to know what original participation is "like," there are some indications of […]
I'm right you're wrong OR I'm wrong you're right
When a child is young and does not know much in the way of the world, he must engage on the assumption that he is wrong and the world is correct. Evolution has provided significant reinforcement of this approach. For example, assuming the other way around, that he is right and the world is wrong […]
How small is zero price - zero.pdf
So basically giving stuff away for free inclines people to advertising for you via word of mouth "Related to these findings on motivation and incomplete contracts, it has also been shown that when prices are mentioned, people apply market norms, but when prices are not mentioned i.e., the price […]
On the idea that ethics in science is a better way to drive profit
There is a thoughtful quote at the end of this story which makes a good lead-in to the article: ...this relatively desultory reputation is the result of the public’s rejection of the proposition that pharmaceutical and biotech firms care about patients and strive to develop innovative new medicines. […]

To love truth more than beauty
This was originally posted at the date and time in the byline, but on my Facebook account. Later, I ported it along with a few other snippets here to my WordPress journal, as my purposes with social media shifted more inward. WordPress thankfully allows back-dating a post, so here it is. It's still […]
