In the comment thread on The Resignation of John McCaskey: The Facts, some people expressed an interest in discussing the questions about induction raised by David Harriman’s book, The Logical Leap: Induction in Physics. Yesterday, I said that people were welcome to discuss that in that comment thread. However, given that that post has over 200 comments, I realized that it would be better to simply create an open thread for that topic.
Hence, this post. As with the post on the facts of Dr. McCaskey’s resignation, I expect any commenters to adhere to high standards of civility, even when in violent disagreement.
