... that might merit comment.
quantum biology:
Erithacus Rubecula (European Robin) migrates from northern Sweden to southern
France (sometimes North Africa) using an "inclination compass" that works
because of quantum entanglement of free radicals in cryptochrome receptors in
the bird's eyes. E.g., the bird navigates using ('sensing") quantum
entanglement.
I once mentioned that the human eye can detect a solitary photon. Nick
suggested that, while true, it was irrelevant because such a weak signal would
be lost in the "noise" of the optic nerve, etc. Evidently, E. Rubecula's
sensitivity to quantum effects are not lost in the noise.
free speech: (stats from an *Atlantic* article I read a few days ago)
more than 2/3 people in the US fear to voice, and hence self-censor, their
opinions and ideas lest they encounter hostile reaction from those around them.
32 percent of "far right Republicans" believe that a CEO's donation of personal
funds to the Biden campaign would be sufficient grounds for removal from the
position.
54% of "far left Democrats" believe that a CEO's donation of personal funds to
the Trump campaign would be sufficient grounds for removal from the position.
Is there such a thing as the Tyranny of the 'Woke'?" If so, has it eliminated
the Constitutional right to free speech? Is it possible to have a Democracy,
let alone a decent conversation, absent the right to free speech?
