A Ponderosity:
To say: "He is a man of truth," is to say nothing;

Psychophysics, Human Affairs, Science, History
It is a wonderful thing when science can claim a ‘confirmation’ of the long list of ‘theories’ that are taken as ‘science’.
This might even permeate the realm of psychology … that ‘1st impressions, of sufficient power, give lasting memories’. It is also a danger signal for the power of the Press, TV, politicians, circuses, artwork, songs, and yes, the opposite sex. Looking your best to make a good 1st impression, often thought your mom’s nagging advice or edict, may be an important contributor to your success or failure in the eyes of the outside world…. especially if you deal in sparkly images.
It is also sounds a blast of caution to those who would project the best, but within and searching details reveals a horrible hypocrisy. On the political horizon are of course the detractors of: Israel, Geert Wilders, and even Amy Adams in a movie ‘Sunshine Cleaning’, where she confesses that her job ‘makes things a little bit better’.
And we should never forget the genius of J. A. Scott Kelso , several years ago, proclaimed ’ Nerves that fire together, wire together.’ There may actually be a democratic majority ruling your mind. And beware of what you subject your mind and body to (I loath going to a heavy metal concert) as the afferent power can affect the efferent connections and subsequent actions and mindset as you go forward.
