Amazing! And that was without looking up the URLs too! Shares are on the way. BTW, how is that second mars probe doing? Peace Dollars socserv2.socsci.mcmaster.ca Of which the temporarly relevant part is here. But these secular problems are such as no age is free from. They are of an altogether different order from those which may afflict the peoples of Central Europe. Those readers who, chiefly mindful of the British conditions with which they are familiar, are apt to indulge their optimism, and still more those whose immediate environment is American, must cast their minds to Russia, Turkey, Hungary, or Austria, where the most dreadful material evils which men can suffer -- famine, cold, disease, war, murder, and anarchy -- are an actual present experience, if they are to apprehend the character of the misfortunes against the further extension of which it must surely be our duty to seek the remedy, if there is one. What then is to be done? The tentative suggestions of this chapter may appear to the reader inadequate. But the opportunity was missed at Paris during the six months which followed the armistice, and nothing we can do now can repair the mischief wrought at that time. Great privation and great risks to society have become unavoidable. All that is now open to us is to redirect, so far as lies in our power, the fundamental economic tendencies which underlie the events of the hour, so that they promote the re-establishment of prosperity and order, instead of leading us deeper into misfortune. We must first escape from the atmosphere and the methods of Paris. Those who controlled the conference may bow before the gusts of popular opinion, but they will never lead us out of our troubles. It is hardly to be supposed that the Council of Four can retrace their steps, even if they wished to do so. The replacement of the existing governments of Europe is, therefore, an almost indispensable preliminary. I propose then to discuss a programme, for those who believe that the Peace of Versailles cannot stand, under the following heads: I. The revision of the treaty. II. The settlement of inter-Ally indebtedness. III. An international loan and the reform of the currency. IV. The relations of Central Europe to Russia. EC<:-}

That is one bad crowd you have there-lol. Sort of like the Jesse James of the intellectual world. Karl Popper would remind me of Doc Holiday-lol. John Stewart Mill's, Bat Materson and Bertrand Russel, Wyatt Earp. All those guys all had a quick draw and perfect aim. Ther can be no false statements in math bertrand Russell said: . Russell pointed this out when a rude heckler demanded Russell prove how he could be the pope if 2+2 =5. Russell replied immediately, that if twice 2 is 5, then 4 is 5, subtract 3; then 1 =2!-lol. But you and the pope are two so you and the pope are one-lol. John Stewart Mill told the naieve Utopians that reality in nature was the fawn with the broken leg being attacked by a couger. Karl Popper is sort of a modern day Bertrand Russell. But I really disagreed with him on some very esoteric point I cannot recall it was so esoteric-lol. Max Weber and Keyens were huge vaults of knowledge. Keyens would have been a kick at the horse races. He was a betting man-lol. Knowledge Directed Perception. All those guys had a picture of reality few ever enjoy.
