Aren't they fascinating? They've always appealed to me as I have a degree in Psychology - and before someone pipes up - and Metaphysical Victorian Love Poetry. An enlightened man would say they're the same thing.

Will you find another forum to be together? Or just drift?

Love to you all.

I'd never have guessed.

As I understand it, the whole social psychology field has been shook recently by the theory of social connectionism (connectivism?), which as I understand it - and I don't have a degree in psychology (although I do develop web based eLearning resources for degree-level Psychology) - is like chaos theory (from physics) applied to social psychology.


Which would explain a lot.

how fast is the group going and is it in water or air

I have this vague idea you're talking fluid dynamics there, PiB...

So if you apply chaos to group dynamics, do you get similar turbulence to fluid dynamics?

And do psychologists gloss over it in the same way that physicists do?

we're publishing books about it next year - until then you're as in the dark about it as me

...although I'm hoping that it means that the hapless flapping of a social butterfly in New York can create a storm at a dinner party in Islington.

You've seen it: the mere rumour of a social butterfly flapping in Las Vegas is enough to create a hurricane in Europe....

Should I be worried?

More to the point, should I be jealous?

no, I think you're both safe there

See, that I understand

Thank goodness for that

Don't know how I'm going to swing innocence when the Nine Inch Nails topic comes up at Easter now though. Lee wins

surely this means you (and dark) win too?
