[Post Note : At last this pm the 2nd psyche team now confirming their diagnosis does include serious mental disorder(s) but not psychotically "insane". The common sense "criminally guilty AND nuts" outcome now looking more likely.]
[And Lars Bevanger's round-up from the end of the day.]
When taking stock I noticed that I started this Blog 2 days after September 11th 2001.
The lines of thought here had been keeping me awake at nights long before 9/11 woke the world. Nothing in this Blog has anything directly to do with those events, but I'm not alone in being awoken to the power of the Blog by their information aftermath. Perhaps in some small way the idea that western rational arrogance, which dogs progress in so many aspects of life, can be influenced by my puny efforts to bring alternative philosophies into the mainstream. Many greater people than I have tried before and failed over three millennia, so I'm not holding my breath. If 9/11 brings anything new to this ancient debate, apart from its awful significance, it is the fact that the antidote to classical logic is sure as hell not a flight from reason.
That way lies only evil.
The words "creative destruction" can never again be used lightly.
