Boole: George Boole: (1815-1864)
“Boole gave scientists a powerful tool for attacking problems when the obvious approaches refused to yield informative results. Boole employed reductio ad absurdum. He exhausted all the impossibles and thereby isolated a ‘very probable’ answer. Charles Fort, failing to gain the publisher’s-- and thereby society’s-- consideration of his positive theories left the world with a Boolean-like confrontation of illogical events. Charles Fort as a man pf true vision purposefully inverted the equations. By getting the publishers to publish the absurd he proved his point that the publishers published only the absurd.”
