Shooting the shit is fine, but without authority, it is just babbling,


today's authority is sometimes
wrong. i worked for 7 people
who were authorities and they
were a lost cause. and so i
don't trust authorities blindly
and find most popular works
too light on rigor...

because of that i have been
trying to get a hold of more
studious works lately. i was
reading a college level plant
physiology textbook a few
weeks ago and it ignored
so many topics and instead focused
on the pet topics of the various
contributors.

don't get me wrong, it was a
good book for me to read but
it was very incomplete and i was
afraid that many students who had
this as their only plant physiology
book would be missing so much.

now i am looking for other
good reads, so recommend away
and i will line some of them up
and see what they have to offer.


and logic is only as good as its premise.


if it's valid.


You quoted links?


only those you included, but
many i did not follow because
i was offline (as i am now).


Citation please.


tossing citations back and
forth with no personal interpretation
on your part isn't a conversation.

tell me when you cite a
link what it means to you
and how it is lived by you.
otherwise you are a shadow
boxer.

do you garden? how do
you garden? what do you
garden?

or i am here to babble then.
