If you have come to my channel page because you have listened to someone in a Stickam room, please understand that unsubstantiated and personally hurtful things said about me and others on Stickam and on Blog TV constitute a cowardly strategy. I'm never there to defend myself. So biased and cruel rhetoric there often goes unchallenged.

I have no agenda here except to research and make videos from time to time.

Other than that, I'm passionate about philosophy, especially the philosophy of science. I tend to obsess about what happens at boundary limits.

There are lots of good ways to study this. Boundary limits play a critical part in mathematics, especially that of Cantor and Gödel, but it can also become evident when human being are just interacting in everyday life.

So I guess you could say that I'm a student of human nature, even though I'm not sure that "human nature" actually exists.

THANKS FOR STOPPING BY!

Interesting...Guess the rest of the display would be other universes exhausting themselves in the service of putting on a show for the eyes of those in the larger-verse...

Somehow that seems very sad and pointless...But it doesn't mean it couldn't be true, I guess :(

Mel, I'm so sorry...YouTube can be SO toxic...You need to take care of youself...

If you never "heard voices with [your] ears..." Pay attention to that!...You can learn not to listen to the voices.You honestly can!

Rob is under stress too btw.

BUT he's absolutely right that you haven't done anything wrong.

DON'T TALK TO PEOPLE YOU DON'T WANT TO TALK TOO. PERIOD!

Wish that there were karma because has THEBURGERSPOT2009 has earned it.

I'd have loved to have seen the book btw.

Your problem IMHO is that you always seem to think in either/or terms...Yes, we've spend too much money and many resources [most of all the lives of the young] in a futile war in Iraq, and, yes, we should be using those resources, as you so eloquently put it, "[In] protecting people"...Agreed, but even if we do that , we still aren't going to be able to overcome the maladaptive strategies we'ver pursued for too long now...One of the consequences of those strategies is overpopulation.
Apologies for using your video comment section as a way to think out loud AGAIN...I'll stop now.
Massimo Piglucci's worka to come to a slight revision in the modern synthesis [which hasn't changed since the early 1940s]. He counters the claims of creationists and other pseudo-scientists. His inclusive conceptual framework contains among others evo-devo, an expanded theory of heredity, elements of complexity theory, ideas about evolvability, and a reevaluation of levels of selection.

It's very interesting research...Obviously I have a passion for this stuff, though it's boring to most.
For example, I diagree with Daniel Dennett on many issues, but his observation that when evolutionary AI programs try to reproduce adaptive changes in their 'inhabitants' these changes are almost always quickly eliminated by the program...If we're not even able to forward engineer these things, HOW can we think that we're capable of back-engineering them? It's a far more difficult process, especially when we come to terms with the fact that all the varables would be impossible to find & include
...simplistic and strictly mechanical explanations...BUT the factors which drive these changes are likely much more complex and have many more contributing factors then we are able to conceptualize from the back-engineered strategy employed in the pedestrian deterministic 'reaons' for evolutionary changes.
I'm curious to know what happens when some things which were great survival strategies in the past are no longer adaptive. [i.e., our need for high fat or sweet foods & sex for the purpose of reproduction]? It might be great if we had some species-wide pleasure and pain receptors...But that tends to make me think of the Borg or something...

The ideas you outline here are very important and very difficult to conceptualize...Just the idea of back engineered evolution is problematic [con't]
