Gregg:

Thanks - interesting how these ideas suggesting a re-confluence of philosophy and the philosophy of natural science are appearing in multiple places.

In retrospect, it looks like, upon originating from philosophy, natural philosophy devolved into “the philosophy of nature,” which became "the science of nature," and which then devolved into “the technology of the science of nature.”
A path with increasingly limited horizons.

Best regards,

Waldemar
