Substitute CTM and QTM for each occurrence of 'model' below according to co(n)mtext.

Reviewer's explicit assumptions:

  1. reality exists:
    1. both actual reality
    2. and n¤nactual reality
  2. actuality arises from n¤nactuality
  3. actuality demises to n¤nactuality
  4. our best current m¤dal of reality is quantum reality (as depicted at top page of this review)

    Note to students of Quantonics: This page (indeed most of our Hughes-Buridan review) is at least five years old as of mid-end-2004. We used more classical language then. 'Model' is usually a classical term intending OGC-OGT. 'Model' usually implies radical formal mechanism AKA classical mechanics. Of course, quantum reality is a n¤n mechanical reality. So our uses of m¤dal are better interpreted as anihmatæ quantons.

  5. quantum reality is a domain of quantum reason(ings) (see our 2004 Bases of Judgment)
  6. a quantum domain of reason(ings) and judgment(ings) is:
    1. a domain of ascending and emerging quantum philosophy
    2. a domain of Quantum~Quantonic~Quality Thinking M¤dalings, QTMs
      1. recursive think-king (Cease classically running on state-ic-rote memory-recall automatic! Learn to recurse and recapitulate memeoryings.)
      2. recapitulative think-king
        1. serial
        2. parallel
        3. all~at~once
    3. a domain of quantum languages (See our QELP and QELR)
      1. pr¤cessings
      2. pluralings
      3. present-participlings
      4. subjective negati¤nings
      5. heter¤-tehmp¤ralizings
    4. many comtexts (quantum reality's primary means of proffering (when viewed classically) illusions-delusions of paradice, dilemmas, oxymorons, etc.; this is related to OGC-OGT; see our SOM Connection; see our Zeno of Elea)
    5. many truths (quantum heterogeneity)
    6. a domain of anihmatæ ensehmble EIMA changæ (i.e., quantum (up to Planck rate) flux is crux; quantum flux issi abs¤lute anihmacy)
    7. a domain of quantum comtextual included-middlings based upon:
      1. quantum c¤mplementarity (Also see our August, 2001 QQA, Note 6)
      2. everywhere-included-middle-associativity (EIMA) due arbitrary spatial and temporal probability distributions of all quantons
      3. both-all-while-and-many (BAWAM) quantum ontic-emergent-demergent-cyclings (OEDCs)

        which we can show as BAWAM(demergent,emergent) issi quanton(demergent,emergent)

    8. a domain of subjective negation (due EIMA) evoking (see subjectiv and subjective, see negate, see SOM's Bases of Judgment, yellow background cells in that table - read bottom up)
      1. denial of classical identity
      2. denial of classical excluded-middle (see our Aristotle Connection)
      3. denial of classical contradiction, and thence
      4. denial of classical falsifiability, and thus
      5. denial of classical provisional proof
    9. a domain of quatrotomous (at least) entropa and cohera
      1. negentropy, zeroentropy, posentropy, mixentropy (these are very coarse demarcations; quantum entropy is a n¤n trivial memeo)
        1. both-and dissipative while-and-many productive (positive) entropy gradients (for a biological example see OEDC)

          which we can show as BAWAM(dissipative,productive) issi quanton(dissipative,productive)

      2. isocoherence, coherence, decoherence, mixcoherence (these are very coarse demarcations; quantum coherence is a n¤n trivial memeo)
      3. associated percepts, memes, and metaphors of reversibility, n¤n reversibility, quantum tentative persistence, etc.
      4. such as: negentropy's free energy, zeroentropy's lossless energy breakeven, posentropy's energy conservation and net Maxwellian loss, mixtures
      5. quantum adiabaticity as analogous increasing quantum relative flux rate (This, fully exploited, is worth a bloody fortune! We do not have an energy problem, we have a Classical Thing-king Methods problem! Doug - 4Nov2004.)
      6. (Very high $ quantum technological progress manifests most profoundly in this quantum arena early in Millennium III - Doug)
    10. a domain of micro-, meso-, and macro-scopic quantum pr¤cess umcærtainty(ings) (Zeno's paradice, Bergson's duration, etc.)
    11. a domain of quantum sophistic self-reference
    12. a domain of anihmatæ ensehmble quantum qualitative affectings-outcomings (vis-à-vis classical cause-effect) via coobsfectings
  7. quantum m¤dals exist (in SOMese, quantum objects; in Quantonicsese, quantons)
  8. quantum m¤dals interrelate (omnipossibilities; unlimited anihmatæ degrees of freedom with unlimited EIMA quantum interrelationships)
  9. quantum m¤dals' interrelationships define them
    1. local actual internal m¤dals' (essence) interrelationships
    2. local actual external m¤dals' (comtextual) interrelationships
    3. both local and n¤nlocal n¤nactual commingling m¤dals' (face of change) interrelationships
  10. change is abs¤lute
  11. truth is comtextually, associatively, heterotemporally, locally and n¤nlocally, coherently, entropically, and anihmatæly relative
  12. substance may change comtinuously (at Planck rates)
  13. truth may change comtinuously
  14. change presides over substance and truth (flux is crux; semper flux)
  15. all propositions may exhibit quantum-logical truth value in some quantum reality comtext(s)
    (see existence below)
  16. an infinity of comcurrent comtexts exist
  17. bivalent either/or logic exists (as a contrived and convenient-conventional subspecies of quantum logic)
    1. special classical case
      1. global truth
      2. uni- or homo-logical (i.e., one- or same-logical)
      3. unicomtextual
      4. distributive
  18. bivalent both/and logic exists
    1. extension to classical case
    2. bicomtextual
  19. infinite-value (fuzzy) logic exists
    1. gray scale extension to classical case
    2. unicomtextual
  20. omnivalent (quantonic) logic exists
    1. islandic
    2. omnicomtextual (See Quantonics Terms and Quanton Primer)
    3. anihmatæ, etc. (See first 6-10 items listed above.)
    4. n¤ndistributive
  21. coherence exists as quantum phenomena (reader: this item needs work, e.g., quantum phenomena as both -coherence and -correlation (plus much more too), and both partial- and full-; these comcepts are currently commingled here; watch for our corrections soon; see our Sidis Proem (to our review of his, The Animate and the Inanimate, ï new link) in interim — 24Jan2000 PDR; see additions dated 1Jul2003, above)
    1. photon laser
    2. atom laser
    3. bio-action
    4. Bose Einstein comdensates
      (both bosonic and fermionic: Liquid Helium, et al., and many new examples during 1990s, etc.)
    5. zero-entropy squeezed solitons (Unity Heisenberg uncertainty relation. Trichon: neg-, zero-, pos-entropy.)
    6. superluminality (zero latency action at a distance, see Gisin, Zeilinger, et al. Note issues of correlation, too.)
    7. tunneling (related to superluminality, see Raymond Chiao, et al.)
  22. quantum logic exists (extends and subsumes other logics listed above)
  23. quantum truth value is
    1. islandic-local and n¤ndistributive and dependent on up to omni
      (by omni, here and below, we mean up to and including) simultaneous possibilities of:
      1. omnicomcurrence
        1. classical
          1. actual-actual interrelationships
            (AKA space-space, fermion-fermion, SQ-SQ interrelationships)
          2. low sub-light-velocity interrelationships
        2. relativistic
          1. actual-actual interrelationships
            (AKA space-space, fermion-fermion, SQ-SQ interrelationships)
          2. near light-velocity interrelationships
        3. superluminal
          1. actual-n¤nactual interrelationships
            (AKA space-n¤nspace, fermion-boson, SQ-DQ interrelationships)
            1. assumes inclusion of these classes of interrelationships:
              1. actual-n¤nactual-actual
          2. n¤nactual-actual interrelationships
            (AKA n¤nspace-space, boson-fermion, DQ-SQ interrelationships)
            1. assumes inclusion of these classes of interrelationships:
              1. n¤nactual-actual-n¤nactual
          3. n¤nactual-n¤nactual interrelationships
            (AKA n¤nspace-n¤nspace, boson-boson, DQ-DQ interrelationships)
      2. omnicoherence
      3. omnicomtextuality
        1. absoluteness: quanton(comsistency, completeness) (note: here we see a complementary uncertainty relation twixt comsistency and completeness)
      4. omnimensionality
      5. omnilateral, omniobservability
      6. omnivalence
        1. valency: quanton(true, false) (note: here we see a complementary uncertainty relation twixt true and false)
  24. existence is
    1. an infinity of comtexts
      1. for every bivalent, either/or classical proposition there are an infinity of comtexts with a truth value of true
      2. for every bivalent, either/or classical proposition there are an infinity of comtexts with a truth value of false
      3. for every bivalent, both/and classical proposition there are an infinity of comtext pairs, each pair with a truth value of both true and false (Reviewer note: This is the reviewer's solution to all sophisms! PDR — first recognized in my Oct-Nov 1992 review of Fred Alan Wolf's, Parallel Universes — later matured in letters to Pirsig and studies of quantum science)
      4. for every infinite-valued, fuzzy classical proposition there are an infinity of comtexts with a truth value of comtinua(false,true)
      5. for every quantum proposition there are an infinity of omnicoherent, omnimensional, omnicomtexts with omnivalent truth value
    2. a quantum stage
      1. players on the quantum stage are quantum m¤dals
      2. we call quantum m¤dals quantons
      3. quantons (quantum m¤dals) scale from primal flux to complex quantonic aggregates
      4. quantons are aware and scale awareness
      5. primal flux is aware and capable of proemial ontology
      6. sentient quantonic aggregates believe
      7. what sentient quantonic aggregates believe depends on their culture (local comtextual reality)
      8. sentient culture depends on sentient philosophy (Note: at the end of the second millennium sentients are quantonic aggregates, but their Western philosophies are mostly classical)
      9. the players are quantum m¤dals but their thinking models (reasoning axioms) are classical, and developed under the comstrained thinking of classical philosophy, especially classical logic
      10. classical thinking models (CTMs), are too limiting
      11. we need new quantonic thinking m¤dals (QTMs) to expand our abilities to play on the quantum stage
      12. new QTMs depend on quantum sentients to invent new quantum philosophy and comcomitant quantum logic for the third millennium
