Hard to figure what it is. The paper rollers seem to be in the wrong place and yet they turn. M. Simon · October 23, 2007 05:03 PM Technically, no form of Islam preaches racial superiority or proposes a master race. But in practice, Islamic fanatics operate a fascistic concept of the "pure" and the "exclusive" over the unclean and the kufar or profane. -Seth Seth Odin · October 23, 2007 08:45 PM Pretty impressive. Too bad it makes no mention of the war against freedom of speech and censorship campaigns in China and Europe. RE · October 23, 2007 08:59 PM RE, Nor does it mention Islamofacism. However, think. How do you restrict the torrent of information without ultimately crippling your society? M. Simon · October 23, 2007 09:34 PM James Burke, Connections, 1978. If we are only now getting a few folks to realize the value of cross-indexing, then the human race is a set of slow learners. Indexing is not a 'think' nor a 'place': it is a concept to allow the quick connection of one thought to another thought. The moment the first text was indexed, the ability to cross-index was born. He cites that as one of the most important advances in mankind's history, and it allowed a flourishing of new ways of thinking to come about. Obviously some folks just don't know about this other Burke and that mode of thought... The Day The Universe Changed and such books as "The Pinball Effect of History". Pre-dates the web by some bit, and the internet was only just expanding beyond DARPANET. Started in 1978, that train of thought did. BTDTGTTS. "I will not be pushed, filed, stamped, indexed, briefed, de-briefed or numbered. My life is my own." Yeah, this sort of thing has been out there for a bit. ajacksonian · October 24, 2007 07:05 PM AJ, The thoughts are not new. True. The presentation is excellent. M.
