I understand that you object to making generalizations based on limited observation.
I would respectfully submit that you are throwing away the entire basis of Calculus and Human Neurophysiology.
Calculus is based on a basic asumption
that if something tends towards a point,
it is that point.
Thus the idea of “limits” and “approaching zero”.
We can never define things entirely, but we know their
practical outcome. So when we calculate the area beneath a curve we set the “limits” of that equation at a reasonable estimate.
Human Neurophysiology works in much the same way, sort of like binary code. Either a neurotransmitter like serotonin is binding or it’s not. Our evolution is based on it because without setting established neuronal pathways, there is no reasoned thought.

Hello Dad? I need more money next month. Yeah, cookie prices went up to $11.00. No. No. That’s how much they cost in New York City. Yeah.

I survived booth duty, despite a bad ankle. Now it is off to a boozefest, sponsored by a customer. I’m going to try to hit up a jazz club after that.
Later folks.
