Reality Based Community

public - created 01/13/07
Keep warm, dry, hydrated, fed, clean and happy. That’s “reality.” Yes, it’s a “blogosphere term” (or meme!) and you can get the origin here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real..._community

Unfortunately, bullshit is real too. We want to pick through the bullshit and catch a glimpse of the “Truth.”

We search the net to do so, and supply a dose of our own perception and experience. Then we bring our cuttings of the “Truth” back here to share… try to turn the bullshit into compost and plant the seeds of new (or revitalized) ideas.

Ground rules: if you think “global terrorism” is a greater “threat” than global warming… you don’t belong here. Anything else is fair game… bring information to share.

We started out as refugees from "The Smirking Chimp:"
www.smirkingchimp.com/
...and for one reason or another were "banned." Double Helix got an alternative site together... the Reality Based Community:
p2.forumforfree.com/rbcommunity.html
..where we could continue our dialogue without being blocked by the whims of the site's owner... primarily because we wanted to discuss "9-11 Truth" and "Zionism." We have moved beyond that.

"Moving beyond that" is why this is about "Science & History." not "Government & Politics." "Idealism" has failed us... big time. We can blather all the livelong day about "freedumb and democracy" or some such abstract crap... we can bitch about Bush... or whatever. Meaningless.

This Tribe is about REALITY... not "abstractions" which CAN become reality when they (the abstractions) influence the REAL world of matter/energy. This is about sustainability and survival... YOU decide what "sustainability and survival" actually means. Two intellectual systems:

Please keep it real.
