Centralization doesn’t scale
“If you want to go to a really fundamental analysis, what we’re perpetually rediscovering on a scale of complexity is that centralization doesn’t work. Centralization doesn’t scale, and when you push any human endeavor to a certain threshold of complexity you rediscover that.”

Validating Web pages
Update
Having a busy time in the Psybernet website. Been updating the pages. I am happier with all those that have the
sign on them. They validate, are up-to-date and have been spell-checked. If there are glaring errors, or even minor ones on those pages – let me know.

Ontology of Cyberspace

David R. Koepsell, The Ontology of Cyberspace: Philosophy, Law, and the Future of Intellectual Property. Chicago and La Salle, Illinois: Open Court, 2000.
Reviewed by Arthur L. Morin
Law is a system of categorization. At the ideal level, one purpose of this system is to help the social system achieve justice. Though not stated so straightforwardly, this is David R. Koepsell’s position in his book The Ontology of Cyberspace: Philosophy, Law, and the Future of Intellectual Property.1 There is, of course, a dynamic interrelation between the legal system of categorization and the socio-cultural system(s) of categorization of which it is a part. Koepsell realizes this, or else he would not have been able to detect the disjunction between what software is and how it has been treated in the legal system. But what he does not seem to fully appreciate is that ontology does not necessarily beget justice. This is the First Problem — the distinction between ontology (what something is) and justice — and I will return to it later.

Words of War
Experts worry that war on terrorism will be seen as crusade against Islam
By SALLY BUZBEE
Associated Press Writer
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Bush calls it a “crusade,” a war against a new kind of evil. But using such a term, loaded with historical baggage about religious wars, could alienate moderate Muslims that the United States needs, some experts caution.
It is becoming clear to me that the Language of the current times – and the psychological depths it taps into is of vital importance! Words of War leads to a war of words on the net, but can unleash forces that go well beyond words. Good comments in this article by George Lakoff.
