I can say no more ( =AO ala wittgenstein). it makes no sense to say otherwise= . the distributions are relatively constant. =AO in a popualtion. if one individual moves =ither up or down. it is most likely that another has the oppos=te move keeping the distribution constant. e=en making you happier means someone else must get sadder evol=tion works predominiately on the points on the curve. =AO it is the activitiy ON the curve. shiftin= the points locations. the curve may chage o=er a time period . averages height moves up,=C2 average intellegvine moves up The focus on =he indivdual is the weak link how do I get happy,=C2 is asking how do i move up the curve , but just as stati=tical mechanics says little if nothing about a single particle . but=we can say much about the group. biology may present a similar=issue footnote , It is my view tha= gravity is only a result of probabililty . it is not a =orce. but a pseudo force. . like spinning a =tone on a string over your head, it creates a pseudo for=e on the string ( centrifigal ). we are fooled int= thinking otherwise. . simple qu=stion why if i throw a fair coin. many many times =will the heads and tails eventually come up in equal numbers. = probaablity forces it into a 50/50 ratio over time. =AO and is guaranteed in infinite time . but says nothing about=each throw. the coin thinks it has free will. but obviou=ly it doesnt. it beleives that it can be either heads or tails= it can but it opera
