Re: Ecological Economics and Entropy



Reading from a computer screen, I'm learning, is far more difficult
than from a book.

Hanson, bless his entropic soul, publishes articles by scientists who
actually do research in ecology, then people blame Hanson for what 
they say.  It's "what Hanson says is wrong,"  "Hanson's definition 
makes no sense," etc. etc.  

Is it possible that the thousands of scientists who do research 
in ecology are all a bunch of ideological jerks?

More than once, groups of distinguished scientists have posted 
warnings.  Who am I to take more seriously: the bright xxxxx's who
post here, or the many experts who warn us of ecological hazards?

(For "xxxxx" insert whatever you wish - do you own insulting or 
complimenting, don't wait for me.)

New Thought for the day:  The Cassandras are best at setting up the 
bowling balls, the Pollyanna's are the ones who knock them down.

Oh, I'd better explain that or xxx will be confused.

"New Thought"  is a positive-thinking philosophy (see my Quimby book 
on the web).

"Cassandra" thinks the world is coming to disaster and enumerates the 
reasons.  (Her Greek credentials are good, but she, like JH, is ignored.)

"Polyanna" is the positive thinker and can fix things in good spirit.

We must have both.  We do have both.  So we can all feel pollyannish.
