"There is a place is space beyond our sense of time... there is a time beyond space!"
-Galactic Cowboys

(Cont.) To understand this song, we first need to know the definition of the word "paradigm." The Merriam-Webster Collegiate Online Dictionary gives us this definition: "1: example, pattern; especially: an outstandingly clear or typical example or archetype. 2: an example of a conjugation or declension showing a word in all its inflectional forms. 3: a philosophical and theoretical framework of a scientific school or discipline within which theories, laws, and generalizations and the experiments performed in support of them are formulated." I'll accept the first definition as the one that applies here, since the Cowboys are neither librarians nor scientists! A "Paradigm Shift," then, would be a change in the current pattern of things.
