First, some recent insights on what it means to be uniquely human:

This is how important Dr. Wallace saw Jaynes' work:

A person could make an excellent bet by wagering a hundred ounces of gold that Julian Jaynes's book, The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind will someday rank among the ten most important books ever written. ...Jaynes's book signals the end of a 10,000-year reign of authoritarian institutions. His book also marks the beginning of a new era of individual consciousness during which people will increasingly act on the authority of their own brains. That movement toward self-responsibility will increasingly weaken the influences of external or mystical "authorities" such as government and religion.

Outliers and the 10,000 hour rule

Reference:  Outliers: The Story of Success by Malcolm Gladwell
http://www.amazon.com/Outliers-Story-Success-Malcolm-Gladwell/dp/0316017922

Excerpt:  http://www.gladwell.com/outliers/outliers_excerpt1.html

There was a moment in history to be born to take advantage of monumental opportunities for success and prosperity.  If born too late, other's have already ran with the prize opportunities.  If born too early, you may be stuck in the old dogma of the previous era to even see those opportunities.

In researching the 10,000 hour rule, I found an unexpectedly good article here related to finding your own voice and koans.

Frank R Wallace and YOU

Dr. Frank R. Wallace


Dr. Frank R. Wallace died tragically in 2006.  He was working on ideas that will become the foundation of a "new mind" on planet earth.  A mystic-free conscious mind in alignment with nature and the universe.


His son, Mark Hamilton, has taken the over the reigns to make his dad's dream a reality for the benefit of all of us and future generations to come:
