I'm definitely not jumping on you Liz by the way, because you are definitely one of the people that, from my side of things, have become better and better in my eyes during the time I've been (not longer to remain I might add, if for nothing else due to levels of ostrasization now well past the level at which anyone would be able to justify ongoing attention for long).
But, for reasons that were/are related to some of the interests I have been pursuing on these lists - this particular context not being a direct interest but more something changed or clarified from the norm. And mentioning here because in this case, the changes are much more about crystalizing what was already intuitive for the majority of people, I would strongly guess including you... John Ross, who incidently I do agree deserves your kind attention due to much evidence of long term hard work at his end, however...unfortunately and possibly rather sadly....has clearly succumbed to one of the top risks we all face when our ideas for whatever reason have been either exposed to isolated conditions for a long time.....or...I believe...circumstances a lot of celebrities understand all too well...which is about becoming exposed to the mind-set typically found in fan clubs. Exposure there just as harmful, because it's very hard not to be influenced by ambient ideas when they are coming from all direction. So that one, overlooked perhaps, can create the same basic properties that we see in Mr. Ross. Joining the two scenarios I might illustrate something like 'domestication'.....due to another fleeting memory...I get them when I address you for some reason,..this one was one of those postcards with a silly drawing on the front and a joke caption. It was a bunch of salivating wolves peeping through a bush to wood frame 'outback' house with a dog sitting outside chained to a post. One wolf is saying to another "I'm telling ya, it ain't worth saving him no more...look at his eyes! HE'S BEEN DOMESTICATED Anyway, in the Ross case it's a case of the more intuitive and well recognized status. He has built himself into something, that no matter the value of the original ideas...and there may be....also at some point began to include probably small, rationalizations...that may well have started out innocently as simplifications purely for thinking clearly about things, that were large and complicated, and which may not have had anything to do with the ideas at all. But rationalizing is one of those things that once in a process, if near the core of thinking even if not directly about the important thoughts themselves, will nevertheless be carried by the knock-on consequences perceived in the key ideas to other parts of the emergent structure of thought, until eventually at a certain distance from the origin, thet rationalizations and their consequences will dominate the process, for that person. In the case of John Ross, the rationalizing make this process useless for him personally. So I say this just as a pointer, that I hope there's a personal value in play for you. Which there can well be, when someone is acclepted and on the inside of a human network, which is also substantially present and taking note, or potentially. But not for John. The best anyone can do for him, is wish him well in his journey, which definitely looks to have - at some point anyway - involved a large amount of the stuff that we tend to associate with good guys. Wish him well. Maybe he'll come out the other end with a stunning theory that changes the world. If he gets through that valley of the dead theory, all by his vulnerable little self. That's the way it. Can't change it for the better. Not for him. Can only make it worse...reduce his chances of making it through. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
