Excellent articles. It's a shame the pinheads don't/won't read them.
It's the burden we labor under.
through what concatenation of cataclysmic catarrh do you condense such a concretion of contumely?

Hey, whatever you say man, you win. :)
I see. I await further instructions on behalf of the Conspiracy. The Voices are quiet tonight!
Yawn, all this is saying is that science-as-we-know-it can't grok the concept.
Hello, drlevy88. The last time we chatted you warned me I was heading into an abyss. Thanks again for the warning.
What does this 'grok' term mean? I know I've seen it before. I don't think it was in an officially sanction text.

ah. I have confidence in your canny competence to craftily concoct a condign curative conducive to correcting your current condition.
that's it, I can't do it anymore!
that's it, I can't do it anymore!
Como?
with what assessment do you disagree?
that matter and energy display stable and reliable natural characteristics?
that the interaction of matter and energy **can be**, **at least under some common conditions**, statistically predictable?
that the relations of large aggregations of matter and energy **can produce** patterned cyclic behavior?
what?
Actually none now, since it's worded a bit different than this;
why is it so very difficult for many to recognize that natural processes and material properties are NOT random and by their natures impose patterning and order
seriously: what, besides naked incredulity, do you bring to the table?
What's wrong with naked incredulity? Would you deny it has been in the mix of many great leaps forward even that of the evolution of the TOE itself?
Go for it.
Ahh! Perry! And Dinah! TV was TV then. How I loved them!
continue conceiving convoluted correspondence, conclude at your own contentment :)

You ruined my setup.
Anyway, a grok is best used for stir-fry, the cooking that doesn't cook.
allow me to make it more fun for you:
1. the interaction of matter and energy under many, perhaps most, conditions IS statistically predictable
2. The relations of large aggregations of matter and energy DOES PRODUCE patterned cyclic behavior.
i thought "grok" was booze favored by British sailors?
Wrong! You're thinking of a crock!
Sorry! Thought it was a trivia quiz.
That's okay. I didn't expect a response anyway. I've been assigned to the 'those who have been warned' already category.
