Taleitha Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 Oi Vey.... I like the pissing-in-the-wind feeling of being a smartass: I abstained from voting on the premise that observing a system immediately changes the system, such that what was there previous to the observation is not what was there after the observation, and that the acting of observing in itself is an affect. Therefore the answer to this poll is null and void as the overall effect on the system is such that an equilibrium and accurate state cannot be achieved.... How was that for chaotic?

Pella Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 The thing to note, is there may be a vast silent majority who neither vote nor comment and yet still observe. How are you going to take these into account? Hands up all those who are in either a silent majority or minority :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

synexo Posted September 17, 2005 Author Share Posted September 17, 2005 Really this poll should reach a point where the answers are nearly 50/50 yes and no, or else the "Yes" vote should start overcoming the "No" and stay that way. Right now there is a "No" majority, but whether or not it is 'overwhelming' is a matter of opinion. If the "Yes" votes ever get to a point where most people would consider it overwhelming, then most of the new votes should also then be "Yes", but if we never reach a 'critical mass' of "Yes" votes, then it sould remain roughly split.

EDIT: Remember...you don't have to have a point to have a point!!! c4 ;) Well that dosn't make sense becasue if you don't have a point then your not making a point......these pointless topics - they always start the best debates Actually, I was making a veiled reference to an animated TV movie from 1971 called The Point. With music by Harry Nilsson. In the movie...Oblio is a boy born with a round head in a world of pointy headed people. He travels around trying to find his point and finally realizes that "you don't have to have a point to have a point". Good clean fun for the whole family. c4 :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
