    Jim:Independently of such considerations, at the
    level of atomic particles I would say that we do have static and dynamic
    components: the static components are the aspects which we recognised as
    conserved via conservation laws, hence the continued 'sameness' of the
    laws of physics. The dynamic component is a continual exploration of
    the particle's environment through its interactions which is known to
    physicists via the various quantum wave equations.

    Hi Jim
    I agree with this. If Pirsig has hit upon something with his SQ/DQ divide
    replacing mechanistic causality with its subsequent evolution, it would seem
    to follow that
    we should also expect some sort of evolution of laws, particles, atoms,
    molecules,
    stars, planets, etc. If such an evolution has taken place, not so different
    from what
    has occurred with life but not using a DNA method of pattern fixing, then
    this may explain
    why the cosmos is as well organised as it is, i.e. the problem of the
    anthropic principle,
    in the same way that the human body, or any other organism, is wonderfully
    co-ordinated.
    Perhaps DNA is less the master of pattern fixing that something that
    reflects a more
    fundamental form of organisation. As per Bohm's implicate order perhaps. Any
    thoughts?
