In Communication Theory we made progress in understanding channels, noise and bandwidth and in Philosophy we made amazing progress understanding the concept of meaning and contextual environments, already arriving at the point of recognizing our own epistemic contexts; not to mention all the other more-exterior lying layers of research on the onion and their results. So what we have before us is mainly a deepening of knowledge plus communication and organization of knowledge.<o:p class=""></o:p></span></font></p><p style="margin-right: 0cm; margin-left: 0cm; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman";" class=""><font size="3" color="#333333" face="Arial" class=""><span lang="DE" style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(51, 51, 51);" class="">Let us use our funds, to invest into a homepage which can attract more specialists in the different fields, which organizes and presents our Berkeley- (and further) research reports and let us connect this to the FIS forum to invite active discussion!

Language is a very late to evolve, highly idiosyncratic, species-specific mode of communicating between organisms (humans). It is useful to confine our discussions to this context so long as we recognize that it is both highly specialized and based upon many more basic levels of non-linguistic non-symbolic forms of information production and interpretation. Some of these are neurological and others are molecular. As a neuroscientist and evolutionary biologist these levels of analysis are of special interest to me. But to approach our subject with the recognition of this complexity, we need to be far more humble about having provided a complete "general theory of information" and carefully pre-specify the level of system that we are considering. For example, the concept of memory involves far more than the influence of RNA or protein effects on neurons and synapses, and the terms 'meaning' and 'semantics' are well-suited for discussing information-related functions in linguistic terms, but poorly suited for use in neurological and molecular informational contexts. We can best progress by recognizing these complexities, acknowledging the limitations of overgeneralization, and specifying the contexts in which our comments apply. And of course, a bit of humility in the face of this complexity will provide helpful lubrication.<o:p class=""></o:p></span></font></div></div><div class=""><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman";" class=""><font size="3" color="#333333" face="Arial" class=""><span lang="DE" style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(51, 51, 51);" class=""> <o:p class=""></o:p></span></font></div></div><div class=""><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman";" class=""><font size="3" color="#333333" face="Arial" class=""><span lang="DE" style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(51, 51, 51);" class="">— Terry<o:p class=""></o:p></span></font></div></div></div><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman";" class=""><font size="3" color="#333333" face="Arial" class=""><span lang="DE" style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(51, 51, 51);" class=""><o:p class=""> </o:p></span></font></div><div class=""><div class=""><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman";" class=""><font size="3" color="#333333" face="Arial" class=""><span lang="DE" style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(51, 51, 51);" class="">On Mon, Oct 7, 2019 at 6:23 AM Francesco Rizzo <<a href="mailto:13francesco.rizzo@gmail.com" target="_blank" style="color: blue; text-decoration: underline;" class="">13francesco.rizzo@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<o:p class=""></o:p></span></font></div></div><blockquote style="border-style: none none none solid; border-left-width: 1pt; border-left-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); padding: 0cm 0cm 0cm 6pt; margin-left: 4.8pt; margin-right: 0cm;" class="" type="cite"><div class=""><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman";" class=""><font size="3" color="#333333" face="Arial" class=""><span lang="DE" style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(51, 51, 51);" class="">Caro Pedro e Cari Tutti,<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><o:p class=""></o:p></span></font></div><div class=""><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman";" class=""><font size="3" color="#333333" face="Arial" class=""><span lang="DE" style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(51, 51, 51);" class="">è comprensibile che un parto sia caratterizzato dal travaglio, ma non deve tardare a venire, proprio mentre i matematici <o:p class=""></o:p></span></font></div></div><div class=""><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman";" class=""><font size="3" color="#333333" face="Arial" class=""><span lang="DE" style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(51, 51, 51);" class="">continuano a parlare con Dio e la<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><st1:personname w:st="on" class="">fis</st1:personname>ica resta (non si arresta) quale regina della scienza.

Conversely, it looks an intriguing matter that perhaps you can prepare yourself a little bit longer and we can have a discussion session on it (you are kindly invited to chair it, or to suggest a chair). I have often insisted in the necessity to maintain a high standard of scholarly discussion, particularly in this new time of tight cooperation with IS4SI. We must count to 10, to 100, or better wait to the next day in order to produce seasoned responses to themes or opinions we strongly disagree. But those "fast and furious" exchanges may also leave interesting points. In this case I gather three at least: the qualitative limits of reason, the quantitative limits of "acting" reason, and the informational approach to the religious phenomenon. In due time, we can have ad hoc discussion sessions, chaired ones, on that. Personally I find more productive the chaired format, although having periods like the present one of spontaneous free-wheeling is also OK.<o:p class=""></o:p></span></font></div></div><div class=""><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman";" class=""><font size="3" color="#333333" face="Arial" class=""><span lang="DE" style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(51, 51, 51);" class=""> <o:p class=""></o:p></span></font></div></div><div class=""><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman";" class=""><font size="3" color="#333333" face="Arial" class=""><span lang="DE" style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(51, 51, 51);" class="">And now to your substantive request.
