1719 Stradivari Viola Is To Be Sold By Bid: Reserve is $45 Million Dollars

News Analysis: A 1719 Stradivari Viola Is To Be Sold By Bid: Reserve is $45 Million Dollars for one of only two know to exist privately. Allegedly only ten of his complete Violas exist today.

Antonio Stradivari knew Instrumental Construction as a Master. Tonal quality of his instruments are said to be without peers.

It is interesting to note that today, in 2014, with all of the Computers, Intelligentsia (just ask them), and Advanced Machinery in existence today, mere Equivalency to a 1719 Stradivari has not been achieved.

Perhaps some Products are Designed and Manufactured by Sheer Genius which are so Revolutionary, for the Benefit of Society, that even the “Masters of the Universe” (in the Business World) do not have the Mental Faculties sufficient to Appreciate nor Replicate those Creations.

So goes Commerce, Science and Technology.

Reality.

For Many People, Iterations Of Science/Technology Careers Have High Prestige Values

News Analysis: For Many People, Iterations Of Science/Technology Careers Have High Prestige Values (as they want their Children to become Doctors, Engineers, Scientists and the like). It appears that the Social Sciences are getting ‘Short shrift’ as well as is “Banking” as careers for their off-spring.

If any Country hopes to becomes ‘Strong’ in the most generic sense of the word, it must attempt to have its Citizenry excel in Mathematics and Science; for that represents our Ever-Present View: “Tomorrow is Today, Today is Yesterday”.

Reality.

Science Evolves By Virtue of Its Refutation Regimen

News Analysis: Science Evolves By Virtue Of Its Refutation Regimen as its Practitioners seek the Technical Truth. A Scientific Theory about some subject is proposed, thereafter, it is extensively Examined for Flaws. The ‘Examiners’ may be the Proposer’s Peers or the Public-At-Large in some cases. As such, the Beauty of Science is its Inherent Principle of Refutability. The Basic Procedure ‘Simplified’ is: Propose Something, Test The Ideation Properly, Refute or Validate It; Establish How And Where the Proposal Can Be Employed. If the Proposal is determined to be ‘Void’, it will be ‘Shelved’ by ‘Mainstream Science’; but may be re-examined later.

Science helps Man’s Intellect to Improve; Perhaps some day it will do the same towards Improvement of Man’s Behavior to his Fellow-Man.
