How can I say this from a Cognitive Scientific perspective? Bourdain shows that Seattle knows how to (1) cook, (2) drink, and (3) relate in a non-dogmatic fashion. This trinity is a big part of human life; so says the practical wisdom found in the Bible.
Knowing how to live well; this is evidence of life more abundant We life-scientists now have the physical evidence. Seattle knows and is exploiting the trinity of material life (food-drink-relations).
This is the bottom-up way, the most practical way, of advanced being. Seattle, you are to be congratulated.
Let me expand on this idea.
Eat the manna from heaven: make it taste good. Drink the spirit of life more abundant: become anew. And always relate well with others: when two come in my name. This is a life lived more abundantly. This is 'humanness' taken to a very high level of being. Seattle (of all the remote places) understands these rules of a life lived well. I am most impressed. The Seattle culture helps to make life easy.
What can I add to this ideological mix. Not much! In fact, I have learned from the Seattle mindset, presented in the Bourdian experience. I thank you.
Even so, let me offer a Boston idea in return.
I offer future-opportunity-exploitation to Seattle. We all know that the future belongs to those that can see and be there first. Look at Microsoft, the micro-software company of choice. This was a good market position to get. Controlling the future: is the existing Seattle mindset ready for this advanced ideation?
Future-opportunity-exploitation: This might be the ongoing right next step for Seattle leadership. It might be how Seattle develops and sells new products/services throughout the world. It might be how Seattle evolves itself, in productive living.
Seattle has the base of how to live life well - in the now. The question is, "Can the Seattle mindset create and exploit the future." This is a very important, uncertain unknown. Seattle is at a very good place now. Can it expand upon this ideological advancement or will it not make the next high grade, and decline?
Many communities fail to keep up. We are talking about strategic ideation herein. Seattle: you cannot stay put and be anew. This is the ongoing challenge. The opportunity for life evolves. Manage the vector of community being, as it evolves. Can Seattle leadership do this?
If you know how you know.
It is clear to me that Seattle now knows how to live well. I'm going there: to see, experience, and visit. But does it known how it knows this? The first is a place of being now, in time. The second idea is always creating the first place, anew. It is timeless. One is real. The another is a continual ideal; the future stepped as is needed.
We in Boston, pride ourselves on knowing the timeless essentials. Therefore, we have developed the next major thought. That is knowledge about knowing. This is called Cognitive Science.
What we do not know in Boston, because of our puritanical beginnings, if how to let go to grow. We hold on to our past. This limits the opportunities which we Bostonian can see and exploit. Staying put is a deadly ideological flaw in this rapidly advancing era. The past make you no money and is life poor. It is already in the books.
Can Seattle let go and grow? This is a strategic insight. Can Seattle channel that release-of-the-past for the new, a practical opportunity for life, consistently lived more abundantly? This is unknown.
Seattle: you now have a very good place. Can you evolve that place up and into the next level, recursively? This is harder than being successful. It is not a state. It is a vector. It is how to be successful again and again.
This intelligent adaptability to the next and appropriate ideological wave, is the key to sustained community developmental. Or so we believe in Boston. -g

Interesting stuff. So ideas materialize physically ... where exactly? Hoe do they then interact with the person you try to convince?
Hi Kano
Each real thing (a photon, a tree, a rock, a person, etc.) has a degree of awareness. That is, the structure of all things sense and respond to their environment.
Gravity bends photons and I date good-looking girls, for example.
I, as a person, are more aware and consciously dynamic than a photon. Even so, all things have a degree of awareness.
Pre-material ideas, those symbolic forms, are judged and selected by the aware things. That selection is energetic.
This is how ideas materialize physically. It is the impact of aware action.
How do we know this is true? Quantum mechanics tells us so. The observer is affective.
