I know not what or how philosophy lead to DNA, or the transistor, or Shannon's Theorem, or Darwin's thoughts. I would be interested in being informed about how classical philosophy is on the frontier of new concepts in Natural Philosophy. I reckon My Lord Hamlet had it right when he said, "There is more in heaven and earth, Horatio, than is dreamed of in your philosophy." Any way you interpret the line! He also complained to Polonius, "Words, words, words"! Sounds like a philosopher!
