Re: If a hypothesis is true ......? confused but smiling..

> If a hypothesis is true, it will eventually be realized and accepted. > if it is filled with misconceptions or half truths, it will fall by the wayside. The above would be nice, ideally but in reality or other peoples reality, it just may not be. A happy ending is in the eye of the beholder It requires some positive imagination etc. Gee its a rainy gloomy day here (NZ) It doesn't pay to think / optimism in the Autumn. I don't think there is a universal true there are too many individuals each with their own different true. They are all right of course, but different The misconception is perhaps that universal truth exists except within one self, logically. IMO - but I like the heart of your statement better Hows that for confusious? ;-) Val ------------------------ Yahoo! Groups Sponsor --------------------~--> Dying to be thin? Anorexia.

Re: WOW!!!! Re: AUTISM IS A WORLD

Thanks for the heads up Tink, your CNN post with big letters was what we needed for this busy weekend. John and I watched. What an inspiration!! I will get one of those little electronic note pads and we will try FCing anew with that. He really wants to be verbal and knows that FC is part of the path. Tom ----- Yahoo!
