thanks for mentioning him, Louis. He's one of my earliest intellectual heroes.

I don't want him to be forgotten. A great person.

This piece on Jacob Bronowski's discussion of science and certainty, but it's 
applicable to all areas of life when he warns of "the assertion of dogma that 
closes the mind."  It's worth a read--and deep reflection.  It's worth urging 
us to go to the entire 11th episode of his 13 part ASCENT OF MAN.  You can pull 
it up at:

Make it a good day
