Steve, many of us have been down this road before - save your energy.
Ken is an interesting guy whom I believe views the nervous system quite
interestingly, albeit in a very terminologically eccentric fashion - but
his interaction with accepted "academic" science is very limited.
There is little to be gained by challenging him to provide proofs or
predictions from his theory - those things, when provided, satisfy Ken
because of their consistency with the rest of his ideas, but are
difficult to understand for the rest of us.
I wish Ken well but I have realised that the opportunity for significant
dialogue is hampered by these factors. So I'm happy to let him be
himself, and express his understanding on his specific terms, and accept
that my terminology and views are different.
However - when I have taken time to ask "just what is Ken trying to say
here?", it has caused me to challenge my own assumptions and biases, and
I appreciate that.
Cheers Steve - and Ken.
Matthew.
