Valuable book - Assimilative Memory - Loisette
My most valuable book.
Assimilative Memory, Loisette 1896 (c)
In the winter of 1959-1960, my dad bought the office contents of a retiring medical doctor, Dr. Loeffler. This book was among Dr. Loeffler's collection.In an effort to preserve the fragile book, I wrapped it in an Arrow shirt plastic bag.
Now, more than 40 years later, I have a flatbed scanner and fully intended to generate an electronic copy to preserve the book for posterity.
Google Books has upstaged me. You can read the entire book online.
http://books.google.com/books?id=39lKAAAAMAAJ&printsec=frontcover&dq=assimilative+memory#PPA2,M1I recommend everyone read a few chapters.
From personal experience,
1) a memory system is useful everyday, in many ways, thoughout your lifetime,
2) acquiring the memory system at age 12 or 13 may be the optimum time in your personal development,
3) Loisette's system is excellent and timeless.- Carl Dick

Obama On Tape - "I Will BANKRUPT COAL!"
Re: Obama On Tape-"I Will BANKRUPT COAL! "Colin Powell and Warren Buffett have different motives.
Powell wanted to align himself with his ethnic group and thought Bush ignored Powell's excellent foreign policy and military advice.
Buffett switched parties decades ago because Republicans were slow to oppose segregation.
Unfortunately, Obama has a Marxist world view. The new class warfare is between the middle class and the super rich -- anyone who makes over $250,000 a year.
Marxism in all its permutations always fails.
Basically, it has two problems. 1) Marxism doesn't work in theory. 2) Marxism doesn't work in practice.
