Entry: The Day I Met Ayn Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/the_day_i_met_ayn#19848 Post contents: Actually, Cognate, the idea that “every interaction with any part of the universe is ultimately subjective” was cooked up by 20th century social scientists, not physicists. In the “hard” sciences, elements of any phenomenon are observed, tests are conducted and, from those, evidence of formulae to explain the phenomena is discerned. What we call “proof”. A pot of water over a fire boils. It doesn’t matter whether or not we want it to boil, it doesn’t matter how we interpret the boiling or how we react to it. Neither poetry nor politics are involved... Bubbles. Steam. Sent at: 2008 05 16
