I was struck by your reference to possibly arguing with George and that he wouldn’t necessarily consider himself to be ‘right’. I don’t understand how ‘right/wrong’ has anything to do with expertise.
Surely what George offers is based on his own process, education, experience and so expertise. In addition, time must be a factor and with that time an active participation, openness and exploration.
Maybe your questioning comes from the experts, who once they have that Phd feel that that is it and don’t continue to explore. Even hard science changes…
The difficulty today it seems to me in all this is how to wade through all the garbage in the blogs and discern what is worth even reading.
