1. Walter Fritz thinks that we can get a computer to produce these non
physical effects and that it can all be reduced to objective physical
objects and processes.
2. Don Mikulecky suggests we use Rosen's catagory theory that deals with
objects and their models as relational.
3. John Kineman proposes that existence and experience are one and that
the becoming experience may be quantum related.
4. Norm McPhail submits that the qualities of non physical data somehow
transpose into effecting physical differences.
5. Alexei Sharov considers it possible that physical existance is a
condition or expression of meaning.
There are now five of us that are willing to take a "wild guess" about
the nature of non physical pnemomena. With the possible exception of
Walter, I think most of us would admit that we haven't got a clue. So
we seem to agree that our guesses are pure speculation and conjecture.
But as Don says, this is CENTRAL. So we're willing to go out on a limb
to see if there might be some way to get at this forbidden non physical
fruit.
This is already a remarkable range of ideas. No doubt, we can make do
with this list. But it would be better if we had a few more "wild
guesses."
I think that most of us have a vague notion about what happens in the
transition zone between the our experiences, thoughts and imagination
and the real world. Some of us think in terms of what the differences
between the brain and mind are. Others prefer to picture this as the
difference between heaven and earth. Are there one or two more
thoughtful people still out there that have the courage to throw their
favorite best guess ideas into the ring?
