    Occasionally, xTools promotes a *comment* to blog status.  *How the hell did that happen? * Oh, well...


    Though James seems to yearn for uncritical unanimity over there, here--anything goes...forever in the tantric throes of critical examination (self- and otherwise).  A-ha!


    *Let's see...should I create a new blog or merely enhance a comment, "blog it up"...hrmmm...??*


    There are some patents given for "enhancements" but most patents are given for "inventions".  In as much as law IS semantics, that's a harsh distinction.  But one that seems to hold up the underbelly of creative efforts.


    *Nothing new under the sun.*  Except that observation was new the first time it was thought/spoken. 


    And the sun? Was it once itself not new?  And the galaxy it spun from was once new too?   The spirit of Gaia dancing in the stars is Goddess Invention herself and not merely a wearer of old hats employed to *dress up* or enhance the universe.


    Of course, energy *is neither created nor destroyed*.  Hence, merely enhanced?  Yes, most systems are entropic--endlessly recombinant of worlds, worlds "revolving like ancient women gathering fuel in vacant lots," but destined, nonetheless, for an effusive doomsday. Yet we find rare systems, like Life, which appear otherwise, to diminish entropy, doing so not merely through permutation and elaboration but apparently through a perforate local infusion of grand creation itself.  Anew.


    A diamond polished is an enhancement on one in the rough.  But when life arose from the inorganic, was that merely an enhancement of *old stuff*?  Some say yes.  Some say no.  But the distinction is more than semantics. It's a fundamental outlook.  It speaks of the Force.  Final answer. he he.


    he he.
