Roger,
Actually that's PRE-conscious. Unconscious is all the grubby, icky stuff; preconscious is the lilty, playful, creative stuff. It was vanGogh's preconscious that did the paintings; it was his unconscious that cut off his ear. You heard it first from me. Nick From: Friam [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Roger Critchlow Sent: Monday, December 17, 2012 11:35 AM To: The Friday Morning Applied Complexity Coffee Group Subject: Re: [FRIAM] How to avoid shootings I have now supplemented my morning reading with http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Port_Arthur_massacre_(Australia) and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dunblane_school_massacre. The Dunblane school massacre inspired the Port Arthur perpetrator, resulted in the deaths of a classroom of 5 and 6 year old students and their teacher, and led to the current dearth of legal personal hand guns in the UK. And as already noted, the Port Arthur massacre led to the revision of gun control law in Australia. At the end of this research, I find myself humming a tune from The Threepenny Opera. The "Song of the Insufficiency of Human Struggling" aka "Useless Song": http://kwf.org/media/threepenny/useless.mp3 Since people ain't much good, just hit 'em on the hood, and though you hit 'em good and hard, they're never out for good. Useless it's useless, even when you're playing rough, take it from me it's useless, you're never rough enough. I am not sure why it percolated up here, it is a truly unconscious contribution to the discussion. -- rec -- On Mon, Dec 17, 2012 at 9:58 AM, Sarbajit Roy <[email protected]> wrote: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Expanding_bullet "Invented" in India.
