[From Rick Marken (990420.1810)] Bill Powers (990420.1453 MDT) to Bruce Gregory -- > I'm finding your non-sequiturs particularly grating today. Me too. I think this constitutes proof that Bruce is really, objectively grating;-) Bruce Gregory (sometime 990420) -- > That's certainly true. But Rick is not talking about student > misconceptions. He is saying that engineers who design control > systems don't really understand control theory and that only > "we" truly understand control theory. Real engineers who design real control systems have used control theory to study humans as S-R devices; these same engineers have dismissed PCT because they know that control systems control objective variables in the environment, not their own perceptions. These engineers are not students. Do they understand control theory? Best Rick --- Richard S.
