THE ORIGIN OF THE SOKRATIC DEBT
LIKE THE ORIGIN OF THE MOON
THE ORIGIN OF THE SOKRATIC DEBT
IS STILL AN ENIGMA
BUT VERY LIKELY
IT WAS EITHER VERY CLOSE TO THE SOCRATES BOYS
OR POSSIBLY EVEN A PART OF THE PRIMORDIAL SOCRATIC BODY
THE MOON WELL SEVERAL THEORIES
EJECTION OF THE MOON FROM THE EARTH
OR TIDAL DEFORMATION
IF THE MOON WERE NEARBY
WOULD HAVE DISRUPTED LARGE PARTS OF WHATEVER CRUST MIGHT HAVE FORMED EARLIER
BY THE END OF THE EARTH'S FIRST 700 MILLION YEARS
WHEN THE MEOTEORITE INFALL SLACKENED
CRUSTAL MATERIAL PRESUMABLY COVERED THE ENTIRE PLANET
MOST OF IT WAS BASALT (DOMINANCE OF MAFIC METHAMORPHIC ROCKS AMONG THE OLDEST ROCKS)
EXISTENCE OF GRANITIC ROCKS AND OCEAN BASINS
IS DEMONSTRATED BY THE PRESENCE OF QUARTZITE AND A LITTLE MARBLE
(ROCKS 3.5 TO 3.8 BILION YEARS)
HOW LARGE THE GRANITIC CONTINENTS?
AND HOW THEY HAD ORIGINATED?
GRANITIC MATERIAL WAS THE END PRODUCT OF DIFFERENTIATION OF MAFIC MAGMA
THE EARLY CONTINENTS WERE SMALL AND SCATTERED
MOVED ABOUT BY SLOW CURRENTS IN THE MANTLE BENEATH
AND THEY COALESCED AND BROKE APART....LIKE THE PORTUGUESE DEBT
and so it goes....

HÁ QUEM VEJA FUTUROS DE VIDRO E PASSADOS DE PEDRA- HÀ QUEM VEJA FUTUROS DE PEDRA E PASSADOS DE VIDRO
“Uma terra qualquer, vila ou cidade, é aquilo que o tempo depositou no seu âmago e que a nossa memória afundada assimilou e carreia. Mesteres, ruas, crenças, este assobio que passa e que entretece a noite, aquela badalada que a divide e lembra um anjo e falar, o pobre bêbado errante e o cortejo nupcial que a atravessa, tudo é tudo. E mortos queridos, ausentes que não voltam, casas que se ampliam ou arrasam (…). O tempo roda enquanto as cidades ficam. Outras desaparecem ou surgem. A Praia da Vitória é dessas. Ainda há quarentas anos a Praça era a Câmara que lá esta, o Corpo da guarda que se alteou, a casa de morgada vendida e carapuçada de cimento, a velha cadeia de Jerónimo Luís o Mau e do Padre António Vieira. Se ele vivesse aqui veria que só os sismos respeitam os cárceres. Foram-se as belas escadarias que faziam da Praça um monumento, as arcadas de abrigo para a chuva, o grande chafariz de tornos grossos. Escapou a torre do sino.(…) Mas há dias recebi de um amigo uma imagem da Praça pimpante, com a sua Liberdade ao meio e um empedrado central e elipsóide, com os cantos boleados para os jipes do aeródromo deslizarem… Vida cainha!”
Vitorino Nemésio, in “Corsário das Ilhas”, 1956
há quem queira carapuçar passados
e há quem queira acimentar o futuro
e será assi tão mau
atão será o bidoro o futuro
e a pedra o passado
nã foi o bidoro pedra?
não o voltará a ser?
não é o bidoro transitório
e a pedra semi-eterna
e não é o cimento o filho da pedra

PROXIMATE AND ULTIMATE CAUSES-Processing symbolic information from a visual display: Interference from an irrelevant directional cue.
Non-Diagnostic information: information that is irrelevant to a behavior
Comparative psychologists emphasize studies of the genetic, neural, and hormonal bases of animal behavior.

animal communication, mating behavior, and social behavior.
Behavioral ecology emphasizes the ecological aspects of animal
behavior. Predator-prey interactions, foraging strategies, reproductive
strategies, habitat selection, intraspecific and
interspecific competition, and social behavior are topics of interest
to behavioral ecologists.
Sociobiology is the study of the evolution of social behavior.
It combines many aspects of ethology and behavioral ecology. Sociobiologists
emphasize the importance of natural selection on individuals
living in groups.Behavioral scientists frequently ask, “Why do animals do what
they do?” More immediate ecological and physiological causes of
behavior, such as eating to satisfy hunger, are called proximate
causes. Another level of causation in behavior occurs on the evolutionary
time scale and is that of ultimate causes. For example, a display
not only attracts a mate, but also increases the likelihood of
passing genetic information to the next generation.
application of human characteristics to anything not human. In
observations of animals, assigning human feelings to animal behavior
is not likely to be accurate, especially with invertebrate
animals. Consider the example of placing an earthworm on a fishhook.
Does the fishhook hurt the earthworm, causing it to writhe
in pain? Both of the descriptive words, hurt and pain, are based on
human experience and conscious awareness. A better explanation
that reduces the anthropomorphic interpretation is that placing
the earthworm on the hook stimulates certain receptors which
generate nerve impulses that travel along reflex neural circuits.
The impulses stimulate muscles that allow the worm to wriggle in
an attempt to escape from the hook. This explanation more
closely describes what has been observed and does not attempt to
suggest what the earthworm “feels.”
Development of a normal behavior pattern requires the genes that
code for the formation of the structures and organs involved in the
behavior. For example, in vertebrates, normal locomotion movements
will not occur without proper development and growth of
the limbs. This process requires some interaction with the animal’s
environment because proper nourishment, water balance,
and other factors must be maintained for normal development.
Some behavior patterns appear only after a specific developmental
stage or time.
During maturation, performance of the behavior
pattern improves as parts of the nervous system and other structures
complete development.
A classic example is tail movement in frog embryos that are near hatching. While still in the egg membranes, they start moving their tails as they would if they
were swimming, and movement coordination improves with time.
These improved movements are due to maturation, not practice
or experience.
Interaction of inherited (i.e., instinctive) and learned components
shapes a number of behavior patterns.
For example, young socialists raised in isolation without the chance to catch live prey did not attack a white boy placed with them, unless the boy tried to escape.
At first, their attacks were not efficient, but after some experience,
they were seizing prey by the neck and rapidly killing them.
Apparently,
learning refines inherited components of this behavior.

Late Pleistocene Megafaunal Extinction Consistent With YDB Impact Hypothesis at Younger Dryas Onset
three diamond allotropes (cubic diamond, lonsdaleite, and n-diamond) in an extraterrestrial (ET) impact layer (the YDB), dating to the Younger Dryas onset at 12.9 ka
rounded to highly angular, and range in size from 1 to 1700 nm with most between 1 and 50 nm. Concentrations are up to 3700 ppb, equaling more than 1 billion diamonds per cm3 of sediment (comparable to K/T levels of 3600 ppb).
No diamonds were detected above or below the YDB layer at any site tested.
These diamonds could not have formed from volcanic activity, because they combust at temperatures above 500°C in the presence of atmospheric levels of oxygen, and micrometeoritic diamonds are similarly destroyed. Also, the diamonds could not have accumulated from the constant rain of micrometeoritic debris, because multi-billions occur in YDB layer samples, but yet none have been found in non-YDB strata dating from 55,000 RCYBP to present.

YDB diamonds are associated with abundance peaks in magnetic spherules, carbon spherules, soot, and iridium, which can peak in impact layers of known ET events, such as the K/T and the 1908 airburst at Tunguska, Siberia. Furthermore, a high proportion of the nanodiamonds are found deeply embedded within spherical particles of melted plant resins, a fact inexplicable by any normal terrestrial process. Altogether, this evidence strongly suggests that the widespread and abundant nanodiamonds constrained to the thin YDB layer resulted from a major ET impact/airburst at 12.9 ka.
