Yes, particularly for artificial systems, the separation/linearity can be

capable of appropriate intervention with a non-mechanical[*] system?

Or corrected. I don't want to go to the hospital and get a different
loved-one. I want the cancer cured, the organ replaced, or whatever.It's
harder to do that than make more babies.

Hi, everybody,
The response to this thread has been great. I had thought by this point I
would have had a lot to say in response to your responses, but you have
collectively just about said it all and I am [relatively] speechless.
Thanks very much.

Hahaha. No, Frank. Like many of my colleagues I don't have a candidate in
this race, but I've already voted for Hillary, who will no doubt keep
intact the status quo of perpetual war.

It seems to me that new usage patterns always evolve out of old usage patterns.
If that's true, then the old way isn't destroyed, but repurposed, adapted,
abused, and evolved.

I read recently that it was economist Joseph Schumpeter who observed that
originality is an act of creative destruction. We have to demolish the old
way of doing things when we advocate for new systems. As someone who
applies complexity to changing public policy, I feel I have no other
choice.

I have lot of experience in high tech marketing. I can say that the term
