Quibbles:
An uncountable set is infinite. It's just that there are infinite sets
with larger cardinality.
There is only one tangent vector at a point along a differentiable curve, I
believe.

What meaning do you give to the word "boundary"? Time, location, etc.?
Good point... that is perhaps the key to why I resist the term, it is
usually offered to me registered on one of those singular
dimensions... while I perhaps perceive it as the superposition of
multiple dimens
Isn’t it a problem that if we lobotomize Dave, he’s no longer Dave?

Steve, you are not alone.

If you are looking for good books to read, I am reading at the moment
"Magnificent Rebels" from Andrea Wulf, among others. I have bought it recently
at a bookstore in Berlin and it is one of the better books I have read
recently.

Thanks to EricC for introducing the very idea of a /tangent/ to this
discussion. I would propose that "mental stuff" might be characterized
*by* tangents? The mathematical/geometric definition of *tangent*
tends to suggest a *reduction* of the curve or arc or path at a specific
point alon
Great find. Thanks. I will read that.
It was pretty damned dense for me, no more probably than OOO itself, and
being something of a critique the complexity is compounded for me a
little. I definitely was drawn in by the poetic title: "Extruding
Intentionality from the Metaphysical Flux"...
Panpsychism is fundamentally dualist. There is 'Mind" and there is 'Matter'.
However, neither is found in isolation, Mind is always embedded in Matter and
all Matter possesses Mind. This is a proportionate relation: very tiny bits of
Matter (string, particle) embed very minute "auras" of matter.
I don't know what you mean by "mental stuff", of course.
Well... In this context, I mean whatever the "psyche" part of panpsychism
entails.
Given that I don't believe in disembodied minds, I'm with you 100% on
everything you do being "body stuff". Which, presumably, leads to the
empirical questio
