Like a phoenix arisen from the ashes 2pi lives.
THE most difficult thing is to know what we do know, and what we do not know.
Therefore, desiring to know anything, we shall before all else determine WHAT we accept as given, and WHAT as demanding definition and proof; that is, determine WHAT we know already, and WHAT we wish to know.
In relation to the knowledge of the world and of ourselves, the conditions would be ideal could we venture to accept nothing as given, and count all as demanding definition and proof. In other words, it would be best to assume that we know nothing, and make this our point of departure."
P.D. Ouspensky, Tertium Organum
Original thinking and writing is invited in discussion of the progressive development of man's understanding of himself and the Universe.

Yes, no well maybe but I cannot enforce anything so go ahead copy it all and spread it like the ma-nure it is. Who could not love manure? When you break it down it really is not so bad. It has a Ma in front, and who does not love Ma? and a newer in the end. Newer is always good, no?
