Greetings,
I just spent a weekend with Thomas Campbell, who is a physicist working with NASA at Huntsville. He has written a big, 800 page book called "My Big Toe," a theory of everything. He has a number of interesting and original ideas in our various fields of interest, which I have summarized below for your entertainment.
Warm regards,
Russell
Targ’s notes from My Big Toe (Theory Of Everything), by Thomas Campbell
Weekend workshop, Campbell, Calif., February 20-21, 2010
- Theory and experience are both necessary for understanding.
 - We live in a Reality, based on Physics and Matter, PMR
 - Don’t just pay attention to the stage and the sets, there are also people.
 - Notice the big picture.
 - The relationship of physical reality to consciousness is fundamental.
 - There is no objective reality. Everything is statistical. Bit to it. (John Wheeler)
 - Reality is a digital simulation. Consciousness is information. [Empty of meaning]
 - The purpose of consciousness is to lower its entropy and become love.
 - Growth is essential. Evolve or die.
 - A form of nonphysical energy exists, capable of changing itself.
 - Consciousness is a form of nonphysical energy. Assumption One.
 - It is not possible to describe the superset in terms of the subset. Assumption Two.
 - [You can learn Word, but you have no access to the operating system.]
 - Our purpose is to learn the rule set [the organizing principles] for the system.
 - It is hard to make “the system” serve your ego, since that is not its purpose.
 - The system wants to reduce entropy [and increase coherence].
 - [This can be done, but it requires energy.]
 - Consciousness will inform quantum mechanics when consciousness is understood.
 - Consciousness is outside of space and time.
 - Love lowers ones entropy promoting health.
 - Fear increases entropy, chaos tears the self apart creating illness.
 - Ghosts, little people, and UFOs all are in an alternate reality outside of space and time.
 - Data is spread all over the hard drive, like David Bohm’s implicate order.
 - Our intention modifies the probability of events!
