The LRC's RSt in Context
Posted: Sat May 02, 2020 8:43 am
With the passing of Bruce Peret, it is apparent more than ever that we (i.e. members of ISUS) now face the challenge of clarifying where the RST stands, in the context of the organization. Therefore, this topic is intended to clarify the work of the LRC in this historical context, which will require some reference to the RS2 work, for the benefit of those who are only familiar with it.
In order to maintain the necessary continuity of thought, extensive discussion of the fundamentals, as they arise, should take place in the "Discussion on Scalar Motion Fundamentals" topic of this forum. In this present topic, I intend to show how, given the fundamental postulates of Larson's new system of physical theory, the LRC's RSt (hereinafter "RSt" ) was developed with the intent to avoid the most frequent criticism leveled at Larson's work, by attempting to find a way to do it mathematically. Conseuently, prolonged discussions inserted into the thread will be too distracting and prevent the desired continuity of thought, in the presentation of the theoretical development. So, please help me to do that by not posting large, graphic or quote intensive or alternative theory, comments here, but feel free to post them in the associated topic indicated above.
I'll begin the actual presentation in the next post, first with a preface, in order to set the theroretical context, both in terms of RST events and developments and in terms of legacy system of physical theory (LST) events and developments, which prove to be relevant to the RSt development. Second, I will review the lines of thought that led to the development of the new mathematical ideas, as well as the observations of the limits and inadequacies of the LST mathematics, which make it cumbersome, if not inapproriate for the RSt development. Finally, I will show how the two, the new physical and mathematical concepts, have led to unprecedented results that need to be properly understood and hearlded.
