[P2P-F] Fw: Rationality Counts, or RCs? In Connection with the Universal Debating Project

Apologies if this has appeared twice





Dear All,

             Assistance is requested on the following matter. I have just updated my p2p foundation link on the Universal Debating Project, and have included a "new" concept. It is called a Rationality Count, or RC for short. I expect there are ideas very similiar, if not identical  to it possibly, and I would be very grateful for any feedback. Maybe Michel may know with all his great knowledge?

An intriguing aspect of this "Global Brain" is that we could have what is termed a Rationality Count(RC). This would be the electronic tracking of peoples decision-making processes for, and against a specific topic. This could give us valuable insight as to the degrees of rationality people may have. For instance, 2,000 people may select pro argument a for topic C via the internet. Then, a con argument b could be presented online for the same topic C, and 1,500 decide to agree with it, and ofcourse, press the right button on their computers to transmit their decision...and so on. We may well find interesting patterns if RCs are used. At present, how new this concept is unknown but it is worth considering. 




Regards,

R Searle
