I've Been Patient, I've tried to be reasonable.
But it's time to speak clearly and plainly.
I dare anyone to respond, to attempt to show
the following statements are wrong.
But be warned, they are not wrong, and I will
embarrass you if your responses are lazy
and ignorant.
In another thread I wrote.
SPS has officially crossed the first big hurdle in
it's inevitable comeback.
And someone responded, doesn't matter who, this
is aimed at everyone within earshot.
"economic viability" apparently isn't one of the "tests of potential
success".
What is important is that people believe it can succeed.
If 'you' knew a whit about reality, science or nature, you would
already know this. Obviously, you haven't progressed
beyond the simple blackboard versions of each.
Which is to say not even an entry level of understanding of
how reality works.
Natural processes are responsible for the creation of the
most spectacular 'solutions' or creations known to exist.
Life and intelligence.
If we apply the processes responsible for our own creation
to this problem, our energy future, we will be applying
the greatest problem solving process in the
....known universe.
We will be applying the processes of Darwinian
evolution to this particular problem.
If you think you can do better, you define arrogance
and ignorance.
I'm sure that you believe in Darwin, after all, most
that don't are pegged as kooks, religious nuts
or worse.
So, do you believe in Darwin?
I am simply claiming we can apply the processes of Darwinian
evolution to this, and any, given problem. Therefore producing
a problem solving technique that rivals nature.
A problem solving technique that defines
.....the best this universe... can provide.
But I'm certain you will reject and ridicule this possibility.
And even worse, you will do so without even understanding
the very first thing about this idea. To dismiss and ridicule
what you know absolutely nothing about defines...again
.....arrogance and ignorance. Which is a typical and
common response.
So, are you typical, common, arrogant and ignorant?
Or will you even attempt to get the gist of this idea?
I cannot explain it in ten words or less. I cannot
convey it to the close-minded that believe science
has already discovered ...all.. that it ever will.
Are you that type? If so, please don't pretend
you have any knowledge, love or appreciation
for science. And don't bother responding.
Let me know, if you wish to have an intelligent
discussion, and are open to new ideas.
Then I can explain why that quesion is entirely
irrelevant to a solution to this problem. And how
to use Darwin for generic problem solving.
HINT: It is not possible to know in advance the
final product of an evolutionary system.
The best solution must be allowed to emerge
as it will from evolutionary processes.
Unless, of course, you believe 'God' or ..fairies decided in
advance our every single human characteristic
and nuance.
Are you that type?
Do you believe in rational thought, or not?
Do you believe in Darwin or not?
Do you believe we are intelligent enough to apply
the lessons of Nature to our problem solving?
Or do you believe humanity is little more than
well-behaved animals.
Let me know, because /I know/ that if we apply the lessons
of Nature in a rigourous and scienific way, we can
.....CHANGE THE WORLD.
And make the world a far better place.
I believe this, and all I want is that as many
others believe this also. So that humanity
can at last exit the Dark Ages.
And finally find our way to Utopia.
It's there for the taking, I know this for a fact.
