"My epistemological question is this - what do we know about knowing they don't? What is our procedural epistemology - if we don't have one, are we just smug not-quite so lackwits?"
7) I never read a discourse on the topic of life roles such as given below until 2007. However, I learned quite a bit from the examples of adults around me regarding who was content and who was happy. I concluded that those who struggle to the top find emptiness around themselves and are doomed to be toppled from their perches, causing a loss of self esteem if nothing else. They are bound to wonder "What was the point of all that effort, doesn't seem worth it now." Choose your life role carefully, and don't be afraid to mix roles or change the mix at any time. Learn everything relevant for fulfilling your life goal, and have fun along the way through life. http://home.earthlink.net/~grharmon/master_game.html moloch/ cock in dunghill/ hog in trough/ no game/ householder game/ art game/ science game/ religion game/ master game At the age of twelve I wanted to be a chemist or physicist. By the time I got to college, I was a bit more savvy regarding the dangers of chemistry. During college years I shrugged off the notion of being another Einstein and settled upon Software Engineering. I worked eleven years after college before getting entirely out of the rat race. It took seven years after I lost all ambition to completely swallow my pride and get declared insane. Now after thirteen years of insanity, with ten years to go before age 65, I want back into the labor force, because for Social Security purposes the last seven years determine how much money you get. I am motivated! I am ambitious! I MIGHT even be sane, despite the evidence of the past thirteen years... That's all I am going to write except for replying to questions from somebody else. I have hogged this thread enough at three hours elapsed! Lonnie Courtney Clay -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Epistemology" group.
