How Causation is Rooted in Remembered-Thinking (Permenance Review #11)
So that my core assertions may be taken from non-academic realms to the realms of academia, I've created this call for a lead-author and contributing-authors for a scientific paper that is described by the following hypothetical abstract (please consider submitting yourself as an author, or nominating someone else, by commenting or letting me know in any available way):
