What is interesting is that the hard science of physics is turning out to behave in very Buddhist/pomo ways with regard to uncertainty, perception and measurement. For example a scientist can predict where an electron may be, but never know for sure.

The problem with pomo thought is that it doesn't know when to quit. Unlike Buddhism which advocates for the middle path, pomo thought continues to ridiculous extremes.
