it is a truism of science...

[the_ottoman_fur]

the only way to really know the world is to reconstruct it: That is in order to really understand what causes what, we must do more than simply observe.

i agree with this whole heartedly.

and it is said that: "Humankind has not woven the web of life. We are but one thread within it. Whatever we do to the web, we do to ourselves."

peace to all my brothers and sisters.
