Geezue you Boyz are eulogiizng him like he is dead...

Mr Wayne is a very bright guy..one of the smarter ones who was here...but his Achilles heel is the reliance on the quantitative. It limits thinking to hard and fast parameters.

In life you have to know how to weave and dodge and that takes nuance... You have to play it by feel, on instinct and intuition. You have learn to trust in it's unerring ability to help guide you as in reality it is that great calculating machine of the subconscious brain that is speaking. Theoretically we are more than our own experiences as our subconscious is the repository of the collective knowledge of mankind. You just have to access it.

The other two guys on the bright guy hit parade are Nostatus and Lubby...*

Wayne is MS MIT, Nostatus is PhD Cal Tech and Lubby is MS U MA. Nostatus gets special cudos in my estimation as being the quickest partially as he also understands the qualitative. But like most he is not free as his thinking is slowed by being bound to the Promethean rock of his own narrative. Unfortunately none of you has the time left to undo it all even if you had the motivation as it takes better than 30 years of concerted effort at asking why? It takes time for neural plasticity to rewire the brains synapses. As an apprentice becomes a master craftsman.

The rewards are that you are free of any constraints except the existential struggle of facing the worlds challenges. You have transcended the ties that bind you like Prometheus to the rock. You have become luminous.

*It is all about your ability to conceptualize abstract ideas and how quickly you can grasp them.

What makes you think that you won't be able to figure out the best way to catch the fish?

Sometimes it is just a stick of dynamite in the water... other times it is that special bait that they just can not resist biting into. Hook line and sinker.
