@Tyke 14;

Not an entry just reminded me of the apocryphal graffiti scrawled on a toilet wall in a University Philosophy department;

in normal script
“ God is dead - Nietzsche“

In gothic script underneath;
“ Nietzsche is dead - God”

By using randomly induced disturbances (as Nature abhors stable systems) initially, old paradox both appears and disappears. (8,3)

Trying to be too clever by half and joining you philosophy nerds! The original paradox of the equidistant food, only requires the slightest perturbation to collapse the stable system into a chaotic one - “ butterfly wing” causing hurricanes etc - hence the paradox both appearing then disappearing. Just wondering if we can get Schrödinger’s cat and superposition in as well.
