I have mercenary instincts. If an idea or artifact is useful to me I don't care what other people think of it. In some situations I like it if others won't touch it, because that gives me a competitive advantage. If it is Grand and Unified, ok, but it doesn't have to be. When I don't have to be mercenary, well, maybe I'll reconsider lofty notions. Trump in jail would be a step in the right direction.
Look what you made me do,
Marcus

That may be the MOST INSULTING thing anyone has ever accused me of. 8^D Just because my mind is so open everything falls out does NOT mean I have no standards at all. And I would never belong to any group that thought the world is created by thought ... even if I might defend such a position to my death.
I suppose I'm more in line with John. But because I'm (if you're feeling generous) *applied* and don't care much for *pure* math, I'm not even empirical. My pluralism is Against Method entirely. If it works, do it. If it feels good, do it. When it no longer works or feels good, dump it and try something else.
Take care to note that this post comes from uǝlƃ. I'm sure several of my other homunculi would want to interrupt me. But I've got them locked up nice and tight in the basement, ready to feed Yog.
