Dr Dick,

It was funny when you said,
"even on this forum as a matter of fact."
The rest you wrote holds water, and I am NOT going to try to make it leak today--


A scientist friend was pondering some years ago... a new paradigm...but what?
You have described it or illustrated it...

"I agree that most educated people do not think...
....no confidence in your own ability to think! I have always presumed my problem was lack of knowledge, not inability to think rationally."

New paradigm: the resolving of the relationship between knowledge and thinking into a strongly coherent and concise bridge, such as the way which the human brain coordinates two different hemispheres.

Or maybe I am just blathering... meant well.

Thanks!
Mike
