I don't quite know how to say this, so I'll just blurt it out. I am *tired* of hearing about how somebody has suddenly come to the conclusion that this or that thing exhibits *emergent behavior*, or how this, that or the other thing simply *must* be an* emergent property *of that (or the other) thing*. *I confess, my reaction is nearly always, "What the fuck does it matter if you've concluded emergence exists? How observant! Paste a gold star on your forehead.
And now what?" * * *-*-Doug On Sun, Sep 5, 2010 at 7:24 PM, Marcus G. Daniels <mar...@snoutfarm.com>wrote: > > http://science.slashdot.org/story/10/09/05/2118241/Transition-Metal-Catalysts-Could-be-Key-To-Origin-of-Life > http://www.biolbull.org/cgi/reprint/219/1/1 > >
