Bill Powers says,
You made up that quotation out of thin air
Not at all. Try the "reasonable man" test. What you say doesn't pass such
a test.
You say, that my participation on the CSGnet has been largely destructive.
Other people in good standing in the CSG community view this very
differently. They don't which to say so to you, because they believe that
speaking what they regard as the truth would provoke you in ways that would
damage their participation in CSG. That is that you would do bad things to
them because they hold the opinion they do.
Back channel I get enough confirmation in this regard that it seems, for
the time being, a good thing to do what I am doing.
I don't think it is entirely outlandish for me to say that it has been in
part because of the character of my participation on the CSGnet that we now
have three sites devoted to the discussion of control theory and
applications to humans, where before we had one.
I've got other things to do today, so I may comment in more detail later.
Mean while lets keep up the economic modeling.
Bill Williams
