Re: SOLO Philosophy by Bertrand Russell - dc

Okey dokey, chapter 7 is up.
You know, these last few chapters have seemed much easier to understand without much effort. A big plus for the woman who is always delighted if I can add my five seconds to the end of the recording without having to carry. :lol:

Re: SOLO The Life of Florence Nightingale by Sarah Tooley - dc

Chapter 11 is ready for a listen. I am struck by the fawning descriptions by the press of Florence Nightingale. I do admire her very much, but ... :roll: .

Section 22 is up. Took me a while! This Joe Morelli is quite the unsavory character. :shock:

Re: SOLO Philosophy by Bertrand Russell - dc

Chapter 6 is up. This was interesting to me to some extent, because when I was doing my MA in Special Education, behaviorism was a big focus (BF Skinner, mostly). The conundrum is that on the one hand, behaviorists are a pain in the ass and I would never invite one over to dinner. But in all fairnes...

Chapter 14 is up. My God, what a bunch of misfits in this chapter. It would almost be comical if it was fiction, but considering it is a true account it is rather horrifying, :shock:

Re: SOLO Philosophy by Bertrand Russell - dc

Thanks. (I only had one father, btw. :lol: ) Chapter V is up. I think of all the ones we have done so far, it is the easiest to understand. His discussion of how living beings differ from machines is interesting in light of AI. I am hoping it is a clean edit, as there was a mind boggling barrage of ...

Re: SOLO Philosophy by Bertrand Russell - dc

Chapter 4 is up. Three comments: 1. I read and study a lot about linguistics and language origins as it is an interest of mine , and I would say imho this is pretty outdated. 2. I was text chatting w a friend while editing this, and she told her partner Patrick what I was doing . He commented that B...

Section 19 is up. Sacco's experiences here are heartbreaking, if one assumes he was innocent.
