370901 - Chronology Context Connection Advance Literacy for Intelligence Support
370902 -
370903 - Recently, Gary mentioned in a telephone call that SDS adds chronology,
370904 - context, and connection to conventional dimensions of literacy, and
370905 - this provides a simple explanation of intelligence support for root
370906 - cause analysis and case studies that improve decision support.
370908 -  ..
370909 - Submitted ref DIT 1 0001 confirming the discussion with Gary as
370910 - follows...
370911 -
370912 -    1.  The formulation you presented yesterday for summarizing new
370913 -        dimensions SDS adds to traditional literacy offers helpful
370914 -        literation for people grasp and remember some big, complex
370915 -        ideas. ref DIT 1 0001

370921 -    2.  First, I cannot overemphasize the importance of chronology, and
370922 -        ease of making mistakes on the sequence of events.  Over time
370923 -        people forget chronology, and then later form a strong belief
370924 -        that events occurred in the exact opposite manner of what
370925 -        actually happened.  The complexity of complex is overwhelming,
370926 -        because even where people remember some chronologies correctly,
370927 -        other chronologies are forgotten or remembered incorrectly, and
370928 -        this combination drives decisions toward error, conflict,
370929 -        crisis and calamity.  In some respects, chronology, time, and
370930 -        sequence are simply a very important part of context, and thus
370931 -        support your idea to breakout this element. ref DIT 1 II6F
370933 -         ..
370934 -    3.  Second, "connection" occurs when we write and place characters
370935 -        adjacent in particular sequences to construct words and numbers
370936 -        into a contextual frame.  Here, though I think you have in mind
370937 -        SDS support for "connecting the dots" between one context and
370938 -        another, which in SDS maintains chronology.  Thus, connection
370939 -        and chronology both seem to be elements of context, but again
370940 -        the physical ability to make these connections, with the nearly
370941 -        the same ease and speed of connecting letters to construct
370942 -        words, justifies separate treatment. ref DIT 1 QI7I
370944 -         ..
370945 -    4.  Third, context to manage the organic structure of meaning
370946 -        reflects a powerful knowledge management dilemma of bridging
370947 -        the two worlds of conscious and subconscious thought.  The
370948 -        subconscious mind can quickly bubble up an impression to the
370949 -        conscious mind normally sufficient to muddle through a busy day
370950 -        with minimal confusion and doubt.  This however often masks and
370951 -        suppresses error, which grows and explodes into huge problems
370952 -        later, commonly described as "Murphy's Law."  SDS enables
370953 -        looking below first impression, and tools refined the past few
370954 -        years in particular make this exercise fast and easy.  Equally,
370955 -        using context management a makes adding connections fast and
370956 -        easy that reveal the complexity of chronology. ref DIT 1 ZI8J

470406 - On 050218 cognitive overhead was added to NWO, ref SDS 1 PPSQ, and was
470407 - refined over the ensuing months.  A key concept is the correlation
470408 - between due diligence and cognitive overhead. ref OF 13 PQ4M  In May
470409 - Morris provided helpful comments, ref SDS 2 KX6F, which led to some
470410 - revisions. ref OF 13 LH6K  On 050523 requested comments from Gary on
470411 - the revised explanation of cognitive overhead; at that time Gary
470412 - replied that the explanation in NWO reads well. ref SDS 2 IX5M
470414 -  ..
470415 - A few months later on 050921 a letter to Gary requested help comparing
470416 - cognitive overhead in NWO, with explanations in POIMS, and in order to
470417 - avoid duplication.  Gary has not had to respond, so today...
470419 -  ..
470420 - Submitted ref DIT 2 0001 to Gary saying...
470421 -
470422 -    1.  On 050921 I requested comment to compare "cognitive overhead"
470423 -        explained in NWO, with language in POIMS. ref SDS 0 GG45  This
470424 -        will aid editing to make make these two (2) documents
470425 -        complementary rather than repetitive.  I indicated there is no
470426 -        rush on this, but do you have preliminary thoughts on when you
470427 -        might be able to comment.

470438 -    2.  If time permits, could you take a crack at comparing the
470439 -        explanation of cognitive overhead (4 - 5 para) that expands
470440 -        common expressions for "diligence" and formal practices of "due
470441 -        diligence" for verifying accuracy to avoid mistakes as set out
470442 -        in NWO. ref OF 13 LH6K with similar language in POIMS (4 or 5
470443 -        para), ref OF 3 8536, that describes "good management" as
470444 -        exercising care and deliberation to overcome innate biology
470445 -        that acts on impulse, commonly called "bad management," and
470446 -        causing lost opportunity, error, conflict, crisis, and calamity
470447 -        (LOE3C). ref DIT 2 QA8M
470449 -         ..
470450 -    3.  Are these sections in NWO and POIMS complimentary or
470451 -        repetitive? ref DIT 2 TK4H
