JC:
If I come up with some
major new insight into the issues I will of
course be famous and write a book on the subject.

You have an inability to understand context.

That was part of the context that very few people
ever say anything new, I didn't write I *wanted*
to write something new, I wrote that *if* I wrote
something new I would write a book. Why a book?
Because writing something new which isn't just a
rehash or rearrangement of the work of other is
rare and would deserve a book.


It was you that complained there
was nothing new.

Yes, but you confirmed:

JC:
Very few people if any say anything new about
anything. If that was the criteria for a post
there wouldn't be any posts. What about the
rest of the post?

What is old can be new for
someone who hasn't heard it before. As for your
responses they are not only not new they are
completely pointless and off topic.

No, they are new. Find any post that is similar
to mine, if you can.

Glen Sizemore's posts are put downs. Your post
was similar to his. In fact trying to show others
to be dim bulbs is a very old and common post.
Nothing new in your posts so far.


Here is something new just for you.

People around here like to talk about intelligence
but those conversations are usually pointless.
Perhaps this is because you can't define
intelligence and it is usually pointless to talk
about something when you don't even know what you
talk about.

Not new so far... old old response.


Solution would be to find one good example of
intelligence and to use it as a base for definition.
But people around here can't even agree about that.
If I tell you that something is a good example of
intelligence someone else will tell that I am wrong.
It would be nice if I could prove it to him that I
am right, but I can't do it because I don't have
the definition of intelligent. Without the
definition there can be no prove and I can't make
the definition because I don't even have one
example for intelligence and I can't tell if
something is an example of intelligence because
I don't have the definition......

The obvious explanation for this phenomena would
be that there is not such thing as intelligence at
comp.ai.philosophy news group :)))))

(now you can repeat your story about six blind
man and their pet)

Right. I know what you are now. bye.
