I don’t mean to advocate an epiphany-driven model of discovery.
To use your Scientology example and terminology, what I am advocating is not that we find the “next big thing,” but that we pursue refinement of the original, “genuinely useful material.” Of course, it is much easier to advocate this than to put the work in, but that’s why I’m using the open thread.
There are some legitimate issues with some of the Sequences (both resolved and unresolved). The comments represent a very nice start, but there may be some serious philosophical work to be done. There is a well of knowledge about pursuing wells of knowledge, and I would find it purposeful to refine the effective pursuit of knowledge.
