Thanks for this. There is a bottle of contingencies in my bathroom, but, it simply is not an option for what plagues me daily. I quickly become wholly inefficient & anxiety transmutes to doldrums. In the days directly after having to succumb to the use of a benzo I am foggy and detached...hungover. Have not tried some of the newer beta-blockers that are supposed to work without creative lobotomy.

I do not denounce your assertion(s), but, I would like to read how you apply them to Ethereum. To me, the literature seems very much to be attempting to prevent from baking in our (human) duplicitous nature, opting instead for an almost forced virtue. Please suffer a fool and expound/expand for me?

It was not simply the consolidation of our petroleum interests we were after, no? Hamid Karzai (our man) afforded us unprecedented access to humans favorite narcotic. Poof! An unprecedented alkaloid epidemic.

on: IBM is not doing "cognitive computing" with Watson
Excellent point. It seems to me that there is a very good chance that by judging it by our own ab/de/inductive metrics we could miss its blossoming. Your own two cents?
