Shift Happens - Transcript:
Les: For 3rd Eyewitness News, I'm Les Grievances... [News Show Ends]
Les: Are we good...?
Director: Yeah, It's a wrap... [Les shifts out of character; He and Mark have conversation in the studio after show]
Mark: Hey Les, what've you been up to man?
Les: Hey Mark...! Me..? Ehhhhhh... I've been thinking about Shift...
Mark: Shift...? What kind of shift?
Les: You see? ...That's what I don't know!
Mark: Oh... So then you Know...
Les: Yeah... I know that I don't know... you know...?
Mark: YEAH...! ...No... No I don't... I don't, I don't know anything...
Les: So we're on the same page...
Mark: Completely...
Les: Like the Renaissance for instance; that was Paradigm-Shift! The scientific method challenged existing dogmas, minds sprang open, and awareness expanded! ...That was some good shift!
Mark: That was good shift! It's Ironic though that it should be preceded by the dark ages, a very closed-minded time when feudal lords ruled over the serf-populations...
Les: Exactly! What made that shift happen...? In what way did people begin looking at things that pulled them out of the box they were previously in...?
Mark: Hmmmm... It's good to think outside the box... It's difficult to see the box one's in... So sometimes you have to push against the sides to figure out where you're at... What can you do...? The inertial process of resistance is the point of existence in the first place... [Les & Mark chuckle]
Les: Push long enough and you realize you're pushing against yourself. [Les & Mark laugh]
Mark: A challenge with boxes is that they can be stacked pretty tightly, so sometimes if one is pushing out against the walls of their own box, they may very well be pushing in against the walls of another...
Les: And THAT'S the Renaissance! A major Shift towards attempting to see things as-they are, rather than just as they are-said-to-be...
Mark: Shift Happens!
