In conversation here with @Evie Wright I had cause to mention Positivism, a fancy term for scientists who only accept proven facts and rubbish everything else. Brian Cox is one of those... I quote: "The uncertainty principle is a doorway through which all kinds of charlatans and purveyors of tripe can force their philosophical musings." Academia is full of positivists. Their approach has hindered progress in the quantum field for more than a century - if you look up quotes from the quantum founders (Schrödinger, Planck, Heisenberg etc.) you'll find plenty of esoteric comments about consciousness and reality being beyond the realm of current exploration. Peer pressure, paper approval and funding have exercised constraint on diving deeper than the laboratory vacuum and prevented evolution of this science that has found itself stuck at the most basic level of understanding. In conversation with @Caleb Boring live online the other day, we discussed many aspects of practical quantum mechanics and how it affects the way we live our lives. As individuals, we are given to all kinds of interpretations and applications of principles, giving us the freedom to explore concepts at will without constraint. The Universe is set up to gather information - a thing is either True or Not True, which doesn't mean it's false, it just means it is untrue unless found to be otherwise. This binary system is self-replicating, so what's true for you might be untrue for someone else. And that's fine, it's allowed. Variations are everything in the quantum flux - uniqueness rules (as in snowflakes and grains of sand) and hidden variables exist in wells of probability that continually vary so that nothing stays the same. With this information-gathering protocol at the heart of universal perpetuation, it stands to reason that the more we give, the more we receive. The more we learn, the more there is to teach. And the more we practise mindful gratitude, the more opportunities to appreciate will come our way. It's not magic, it's the bedrock of physics that at present nobody really understands. This aspect has been discussed with @Ann-Marie Burtell and covers a lot of ground in self-development.

@Kathy Ratcliffe I'm very eager to learn more about microtubules! I've done a bit of research on the subject after our conversation with Ann. And I'm surprised that I have not heard of microtubules before. It's implications are fascinating. Is there any research you could point me towards? Because from what I've found it hasn't been researched thoroughly.

I have been doing a lot of research into microtubules today and there's multiple topics I'd like to discuss. 1. Water Coherence 2. Super Radiance 3. The Measurement Problem 4. Q Coefficient

I hope to be able to make it.

On Skool, there's a real sense of community and a drive to align with like minds. I'm really interested to know how you like to interact here, so I've set up a Poll. Your opinion counts for a lot, and helps me to appreciate people's preferences in action. Thanks for responding!
