Fw: [4DWorldx] Das Auge sieht weit, der Verstand noch weiter.

2013-06-20 Thread Roger Clough
There is another, still better translation of "Das Auge sieht weit, der 
Verstand noch weiter."

It might be also translated as " The eye sees far, but the mind that sees 
further" (sic).

>Translation: Brains are farther than the eye.  
>English equivalent: The eye looks but it is the mind that sees.

No problems. This applies already to Opportunity, Curiosity, Spirit  
and others robots when they explore Mars. Their computer programs are  
farther than their sensors. And the gap will predictably grow.


Once Löbian, the gap between communicable beliefs and knowledge will  
grow too, and they will know that.
