Panology

 * The study of things working their way out in time; the study of the line of events that lead to the final conclusion.

I. Rules a) Many organic issues, such as terminal disease, disease in general, or ailments, respectively, are not included, as the final product is almost always the same(death).        b)  The main subject matter of Panology is action+reaction=end result+time line where action & reaction are eventually disregarded & all events are the same as when action was performed. Case Study 1: Billy pushes Thomas, Thomas hits Billy;  both have bruising & hold feelings static toward a friendship. Two weeks later, the bruises have healed, the encounter has been somewhat forgotten & regarded as a humorous lack of judgement, and the two continue their friendship. -In Panological terms, the action is obviously the violent behavior; the reaction is bruising & hurt feelings. Time line is two weeks; and end result is the continuation of friendship. The study doesn't end there-what made Bill push Thomas to begin the chain of events? Alcohol, jealousy, thievery? What will make this "Pan out?" The acknowledgment of alcohol or feelings expressed? Perhaps a peace offering? What brings the homeostasis back to their relationship? -In many ways, this may seem trivial at first, but in looking at the end result & time that it                         took for the two subjects to revert to the way they were prior to the action/reaction point, is                           it possible to figure out the action that brought this whole ordeal into motion & stop it before it begins? We have all known action brings an equal & reversing reaction, but the simplicity there brings us to wonder how to stop it before it begins. c) When things "Pan Out," it's almost as if nothing had happened.  All action/reaction in human life eventually balances itself, whether it takes a mere two weeks, such as in Case Study 1, or possibly generations;  typically events that dull & become a whisper over time.
