For Lilian and the Indigos - Above Top Secret

A SCIENCE WITNESS
Human nature

Some interesting extracts from the new energy yahoo.groups postings:
"ICI's own paints laboratory held an internal audit and what they found puts this
claim in an entirely different light. For the audit showed that the most
scientifically qualified of its research chemists had contributed to the least number
of patents, and the fewer scientific qualifications the staff possessed, the greater
the number of patents they had contributed to. In the most striking case of all, the
person who had contributed to most ICI's patents had no scientific qualifications
at all.”
It seems that Maurice Ward's greatest strength as a researcher was that he had not
been taught how to think."

People,
I'm reading all these notes going back and forth in defense of one or another and,
even though it's not something to laugh about, I smile thinking of the famous
Rodney King lament "why can't we get aloooong!?":-)
The answer is simple: it is human nature and only those who understand its
complexity can control it and take advantage of it. To change it, it's wishful
thinking, period. But like the two poles in a magnet, there is always good and bad
in the human nature true, in various proportions, but both aspects are there, in all
of us!
Ego is probably the most powerful of them all and it can push some to amazing
accomplishments but equally easy to ridicule and destruction, when it takes over
the reason. So what if Tim wants the Nobel Prize? I met a guy who thinks he's the
Second Coming of Tesla and the Christ/AntiChrist (I'm not clear yet). He has no
scientific qualifications at all but he's a self taught genius with brilliant ideas, the
kind of Maurice Ward from somebody's note above. That's the human nature part
we should be focusing on.
There is nothing wrong to stand up to bullying, to be honest and fair and ask that
from others. Some people need that to bring them "down to Earth". Others don't
get it, and for the benefit of the cause and the many, we must continue without
them.
