Re: "2001" : The invention of the right angle

Jeff,

"2001" clearly has such a depth to be able to stimulate conversation so continuously.

I think of technology as a matter of faith because sciencific knowledge is in the end so temporary- there are no scientific "facts' really as they are constantly superceded. Fro a person to perform scientific investigation, though, they need a faith that the conditions and results are "real enough" to be useful.

Proof of the need to have a basic faith in science is demonstrated by those people that still today insist that man has never landed on the Moon- it was staged in Burbank. And, look at the reasoning/argument between creationists and evolutionaries- both sides arguments end up epistimologicallly phrased in quasi-religious terms of faith in the method.

Great topic! Thanks!

Cheers,

Bambi B
