Idolatrizing Bubbles

Posted April 19th, 2008 by Anonymous

Ideas are like bubbles in a boiling pot.
When the temperature gets close to 100 C, there will be a 'first' bubble to bubble.

Ideas are the bubbles of the Zeitgeist, of the context, of the circumstance.
Had the first bubble waned, had it been frustrated, others would inexorably come.
Tautology: the first one to bubble is the first one to bubble.

Ideas want to effervesce.

Words like 'father of this', and 'seminal that' point back to individuals. But ideas are like droplets of water from saturated vapor: they will condense out of sheer necessity.

Condensation is an event, Evaporation is an event.

The primacy of the first bubble is irrelevant.
Given the normal conditions, it will boil.

No one ever heard of bubbles fighting over who bubbled first.
T'would be silly.
