DAVID (under “ant colony complexity”): Still 50/50. Just as likely I am right and lots of folk agree with me. I know how automatic my cells are in my human body. -dhw: You “know”? It's worth recalling Stephen Talbott's observation: “We discover that our highest capacities - our thinking, our formulation of goals and plans, our strivings and passions, our sense of well-being and illness - are objectively imaged in our own biological organism right down to the molecular activity of our cells, as also in the cells of every other living creature.” (My bold). But you “know”?
-DAVID: Still 50/50.-When the odds are 50/50,
According to us clear thinkers
The cowboy who “knows”
Which way it all goes
Is wearing his horse's blinkers.
