Dear =effrey,

Yes, I think Brian =osephson is indeed rather scattered. =/span>

I don't think Deepak is =nterested in deep theoretical issues so I don't think you'll succeed in moving him towards the =tudy of probabilities. But I agree =ith you that it would be better if he stayed away from quantum phenomena which he =oesn't know much about and which in relation to medicine and consciousness seem =o me to create a cloud of scientific-sounding rhetoric which obscures rather =han illuminates the problems.

I'm =11 for the idea of attractors, but I don't think mathematically so find it hard to grasp probability arguments. Although I think morphic fields =re probability structures and work by influencing probabilities.

We leave for a remote island in British Columbia =n Wednesday and I'll be away for about 2 months. But still in email contact most of the time.

he pointed me to brian Josephson, seems =cattered.? view? I m trying to convince depak to move in the realm =nd study of probabilities and stay away from quantum phenomena. = I think natures distributions pushing elements to be =verage , describes many processes. . it appears =hat morphing all local faces into one ( average ) appears to be =eautiful. . if things are distributed on a bell live or =ormal curve, just looking at the distribution could lead =ne to think there is a force pushing toward the =iddle. maybe gravity is just =hat, . probability of all things being equally =istributed. appearing as a pseudo force = ( like centrifugal force ). the =entral limit theorem might answer many mysteries. . =erivation of the power laws for example. zipf, pareto. . if the distribtuions =re the attractors. having even a distribution of esoteric =raits like happinesss could lead one to belive that if the =istribution wants to stay constant. as one point on the =urve ( the person) if they become happier, the pseufo force would push =omeone else towards the average. . =nd yes - a few times depak and i roared with =aughter.

Glad to hear about your meeting. Deepak =s good company, has a broad vision, and can be hilarious
