1. This is wild speculation, but 1 shall offer a little evidence shortly. 2. There is no doubt that the United States has many foolish, litigation-spawning statutes that England has been spared. 3. Several studies have found that the more Sawyers a nation has, other things being equal, the lower rate of economic growth. Good news for England? Not really! 4. English cases "turn over" less frequently than American, implying a lower rate of legal change. 5. He has submitted a 'skeleton argument", which is to say a brief outline of his argument. 6. Two previous speakers had said bad things about David Hilbert. So I started by saying that in spite of what you might have heard in some of the previous lectures, Hilbert was not a twit! 7. But I'm sure he didn't think that it would be a practical decision procedure. The one I've outlined would only work in principle. It's exponentially slow, it's terribly slow! Totally impractical. 8. However, I have already noticed one advantage to the gopher in the MOO environment; it is an excellent environment in which an experienced gopher user can show a novice the rapes. 9. His famous lecture т the year 1900 is a call to arms to mathematicians to solve a list of twenty-three difficult problems.

You see, if you assume that you have a formal axiomatic system for arithmetic and it's consistent, from Gödel you know that it can’t be complete, but there still might be a decision procedure. 15. While neither Weinberg nor Wolpert believe that science studies will warp the minds of scientists, they do believe that it can have an unsavory influence on science policymakers who are looking for excuses to trim down expensive science. 16. Next Weinberg tackles the anthropologism of science studies head on. 17. Whereas Weinberg writes as a scientific native - so much so that it sometimes seems that all of recent physics has crossed his blackboard at some point - Wolpert conveys more of the air of a cicerone who is clearly knowledgeable about the artifacts on display but equally clearly, not their designer.
