[ Oh, the joys of the “observer problem!” ]

So true.. If an observable happens and no observer is there to see it, did it happen?..

A new twist to an old bromide..
More, if it was observed was anything missed in the observation?...

WHo can observe anything from all aspects?..
The arrogant may think they do..
The vain may be sure they do?..
and, the afraid may be afraid to admit they looked...

But the wise know they are pretty stupid..
For the more you know, the more you know of things you don't know..
Generating humility..

Observation is not a problem for the humble..
They are the true scientists.. satisfied with a piece of the puzzle(observation)..

That reminds me of the philosophy statement I put in my high school senior yearbook:

As I extend the radius of my knowledge, I expand by a factor of 2pi the circumference on which I touch my ignorance.

It served me well throughout a long career as a scientist and technologist...

[[For the more you know, the more you know of things you don’t know..]]

Aint htta the truth- There was an old saying I’ve forgotten now, but basically it goes somethign like “When I was young, I thought I knew it all, when I got a bit older, I knew I knew it all, but when I got old, I knew I was just beginning to udnerstand dimly”

Somethign liek that

So very true, dear brother in Christ! Well said.
