Ask a physicist for an <i>ab initio</i> aspirin. A discipline is blind to what it denies exists until its face is pushed into it.<br /><br />Blow a little smoke, see what develops. Physics denies the fundamental nature of physical chirality for its being an extrinsic emergent phenomenon.

It was also interesting to learn that Born got involved in helping support the research of Stern and Gerlach by charging Phil Warnellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15671311338712852659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22973357.post-63314038879561518372011-12-16T06:35:51.747-05:002011-12-16T06:35:51.747-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Phil Warnellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15671311338712852659noreply@blogger.com
