Re: [FRIAM] Opportunity to join a discussion about Charles Sanders Peirce

Glen, I think Carl is referring to my earlier remark about String Theory. He is not alone in attacking Popper because Popper's idea concerning falsifiability and a "true" scientific theory stand in the way of just accepting a proposed theory base just on their mathematical elegance. I, myself, hope

Thanks for posting your intro materials to purpose of the universe. I haven't looked at them, yet, but will (probably next week). But since I'm making a feeble attempt to review the "living systems as entropy maximizers" theme for another meeting, the below paragraph of yours tweaked me. It s
