CREATIVE LOGIC BIRTH

Dorian Shainin told me; ‘Tim, whenever you are stuck or confused, draw a picture.’

Many readers will know about David and Goliath. This picture shows that the stone is necessary but not sufficient; likewise, the sling was necessary but not sufficient.’

The picture shows a Behavioral Spike Interaction™ drew the picture and Carl did the math for a real problem later.

Dyslexics, in general, are more creative, and others are more logical. Creative Logic represents both (i.e., the sling and the stone).

Now that you saw my picture, let me introduce you to, Carl Bennett, the man that did the math.

Carl

‘I’ll talk about the work Carl and I did together later. For now, I’ll say

Carl constantly smiled and nervously chuckled when he talked. Carl was large in stature and had big hands. When talking he’d point his index finger toward you thinking that would help transmit the message. I understood very little of what Carl said and simple laughed along. Carl had a deep laugh (Hugh, Ugh, Hugh).

  • Carl was a genius.
  • Carl graduated from high school at 14.
  • Carl was the chief statistician on the atom bomb.
  • Carl knew Albert Einstein.


  • Carl was a humble man who downplayed his genius.

  • Carl lived on the west coast.
  • Carl sung in his choir.
  • Carl loved Opera, soccer and football.
  • Carl visited his niece on Lake Keowee in SC every year.
  • We had a condo there.


  • Going to the local fish camp was a yearly tradition.

    Statistical Validity

    Some questioned the statistical integrity of Red X tools. Most were statisticians. Pete Shainin hired Carl to show the validity of the Red X tools.

    Carl would present to all of us from time to time. Carl was not so familiar with permanent markers, projectors and projector screens. As he presented, he would go to the screen and try to write on it with a permanent marker. In unison we all yelled, ‘No Carl! And we all laughed. He never broke the habit and in the course of a thirty-minute-presentations he would do it a ‘dozen times.

    Carl’s world was blackboards and chalk. He struggled making the paradigm shift to more modern overhead projectors.

    Again, dyslexics, in general, are more creative, and others are more logical. Creative Logic represents both (i.e., the sling and the stone).

    This is how Creative Logic, the brand for Creative Logic came about.
