ROG WROTE:
[knowledge is] "That which allows a control system to select the actions that
will make its
survival and replication more likely in a given environment."
PLATT suggested:
“Like the empty sky it has no boundaries,
Yet it is right HERE, ever serene and clear.
When you seek to attain it, you cannot see it.
You cannot take hold of it,
But neither can you lose it.”
ERIN asks?
When I kept sugggesting that Roger's definition reminded me of WILL I also
kept getting a "Nazi" feeling about it. I think the word "control" is what
triggers this feeling the most. In contemplating your email I think that you
are replacing controlling with seeking and making me ask myself what is the
difference because "the difference is what makes the difference"
Is it that Sisyphus was whistling rather than pulling his hair out?
The rock is still rolling.......................
