Dear DMB,
I am being playful in my style, that's true,
and I do know that winds you up :-)
but I am being serious in intent,
so I will bother to elaborate if I may,
DMB - What is magic?
Ian - Just me saying thanks in UK vernacular - sorry
DMB - What are you thanking me for?
DMB - What does "that" refer to?
Ian - Illustrating my point that use of "scientific methods"
(in non-scientific walks of like)
is political correctness, the prevailing meme.
Based on your own words ... {Quoted originally}
You cannot even conceive how science can be considered political
correctness.
(because it is completely politically incorrect to do so)
DMB - And I really don't see a catch-22 in this at all.
Ian - that's just me suggesting that we find it difficult to argue,
about scientific logic, without usingscientific logic,
and that is kinda catch-22-like.
Regards
Ian Glendinning
