James Burke is a great man. I have a personal policy that when I write a white each paragraph has a "layperson's" explanation beneath it, which was inspired by the first and the la…

Ignorance is bliss. Q.E.D. IMO, the more brain cells one has, the more neurotic one can be because the added bandwidth, compounded with being highly educated, gives one's imaginati…

Back to qualia: in my opinion, and your mileage obviously varies, it’s not even a wild goose chase — it’s more like The Hunting of the Snark. Consciousness isn’t just a spotlight, …

With great advantage comes equal disadvantage, I wonder what the side effects are?

Apple's "Monopoly Sentinels" won't let me open it. To wit, “Pinnacle a Sentinel remake” can’t be opened because Apple cannot check it for malicious software." • This software needs…
