Why Bruno? I'm talking about your seed assumption. 
 
How about do the other way around. Read my post on the 'end to end 
structure associated wit (sic) falsification' , tell me where you disagree, 
or....present your falsifiability carefully in those terms. 
 
Because there's two areas here. One is issue about your initial assumption. 
We spent ages on that, in which I was trying to put the case for UNREALIZED 
assumptions. Drew a blank there. 
 
Then there's matter of your claim to falsifiability. On that one I've 
actually thrown down the gauntlet. The challenge is that you actually 
present your falsifiability in the terms I laid out. Or, you disagree with 
those terms in which case we can start looking for third party resolution 
of who is right.
