Laxian Key (page 1)

Squaring the Circle...

Can it really be beyond the compass of the human mind to at least regulate this constant cycle of conflict in the Middle East? Well, maybe it is - but here's a suggestion for closure where the expenditure involved would seem to comprise mainly that of a few brain cells, a commodity we all have in plentiful supply.

Yes I appreciate the analogy. This is Ed and DB''s passion. Music and peace without politics in the way. There is much to do yet I am sure. But this is a start.

It's like conducting an orchestra made up of the entirety of humanity and finding, much to one's surprise, that they can be coordinated and will work together.

The 'Key' makes use of maths, of course, the simplest geometric progression, that of 1:2:4:8:16...and I believe there's a certain music to found in it as well.

Thank you so much for you swift reply, John. This visual is great for me. Edward is the one for music and maths which he loves. I am very hopeful about this.

Thus other methods, ones far less violent and objectionable must be brought into play and so game concludes by abandoning direct conflict for direct talks.

The best explanation is to use a simple visual one. The conflict is like two fists hitting each other constantly, each trying to force the other out of the way.

John Cronin 05.02.2015 09:32

Under such reversed conditions, both fists must now break off from battle since all such efforts only advance the cause of the other fist; not the ideal outcome

John Cronin 05.02.2015 09:23

Now, although each fist can strike just as hard as before, its direction is reversed, its force now taking it towards the objective desired by the other fist.

John Cronin 05.02.2015 09:20

The 'Key' makes one, seemingly minor change in this scene. It transposes the positions of the fists, confining them to striking only the back of the other hand.

But the dominant feature of the 'Key' rests with its capacity to provide a common escape path, a way out of a conflict that has not had one for all of 67 years.

Many thanks for your appreciation, Frank. I can only hope that the KEY will result in an end to the Israeli-Palestinain conflict and all such others thereafter.

I follow along on the comments in the Haaretz, and I appreciate your effort in educating the dogmatic Israelis from the far right. Keep up the good work.

The difference with the KEY, Clif, is that it is autonomous, the benefits that humanity would derive from its use making it the go-to formula in ANY conflict.

You have an interesting concept, but given that the United Nations was created to perform a similar function...well, it hasn't worked. Power prevails.
