> In the case of vertebrates, this list corresponds to the motivational behaviours that drive the activity in the hypothalamus, namely: fighting, fleeing, feeding and sexual functioning. The hypothalamus responds to these motivations by regulating activity in the endocrine system to release hormones to alter the behaviour of the animal. A powerful force, but we have some ability to transcend such things. > https://gallica.bnf.fr/ark:/12148/bpt6k96258071/f32.item https://gallica.bnf.fr/ark:/12148/bpt6k96258071/f32.item Ha!

I was with you up to this point....I feel like you're hinting at something here? :)

The single inference as the simplest way to switch from Type 1 to Type 2... (if we think of catechisms as being the canonical type 1 instruction, and textbooks the canonical type 2) Consider the "Tigerfibel" (1943), many pages of which feature items for every sort of thinker, eg https://web.archive.org/web/20230617172820im_/http://www.alanhamby.com/Tigerfibel/17.jpg https://web.archive.org/web/20230617172820im_/http://www.ala... : Type 2 thinkers have a thesis and antithesis: "Water is necessary to cool the engine, when it runs" and "Water is sufficient to destroy the engine, if it freezes" Type 1 thinkers have a motto: (upper left) Water puts your tank at ease, don't forget the anti-freeze Type 0 thinkers have a place to rest their eyes (upper right)
