......what about banking cascading cross-faults? what about huge potential for re-corruption, due to the very hi % of espically small/mid companies that won't even come close?
I'd put that in the "not...irreversible" category. It would be a mess and it might take a long time, but eventually things would get sorted out, from paper records if necessary.
....this perplexes me as you said you know about sytemic/domino effects??? Are you saying you just don't worry about it, or you don't see the potential/probability as I do, for a universally catestropic results from multi-diminsional domino effects?
I'm saying I don't worry about it, not that it won't happen. To me, this is just like the nuclear problem. If we end up with a surfeit of fallen dominos, we're all doomed so why worry. At the risk of oversimplifying, we'll either end up with civilization more or less in place, or we won't. Any problem or combination of problems that results in the latter, is a waste of my life energy.
I have excellent analysises/papers on Domino effects- would you like me to post any of them?
Thanks, but no thanks. I've written this one off.
You know, Ken, when we consider things point by point, we don't disagree on much of anything. I wonder why is it that our posts sound so different!
p.s. Like baroque music best, Bach of course, and Corelli. Piano from the romantic period and classical guitar. Dislike almost everything written in the last hundred or so years (except Berg's Pavane for a Dead Princess). My taste is not very sophisticated and my ear is not very good. RE the former, I like most anything that's heroic and has a melody. RE the latter, I can't tell one composer from another.
p.p.s. I have never eaten a bug, other than the occasional inadvertent gnat, and the prospect is singularly unappealing. If faced with the choice between eating bugs and dying, however, I would find a way. |
