Smitty Stevens was working out his formulation for the "Power Rule" in
Psychophysics, I read, and B.F. Skinner walked up to him.  They were looking
down on the statute of William James, from the Psychology Hall, Skinner put
his hand on Steven's shoulder and told him, "You can not get enough math."
I wonder what the implication this has on those in Southern California and,
I saw a post from Germany as well, Neurophysiology labs complaining about
the missing attention on subatomic modalities.  Fuck a duck, are we talking
epistemology here?
