Hi Dennis!

Like the fellow who critiqued you... I too didnt pay much attention
to your initial poem posts. Until you said to read it again. WOW!
Am I ever glad I did! Very cool... AND relevant in my humble opinion!
Nicely done and thanks for sharing it! I really appreciate your perspective
and different / refreshing views. Please explain the following if you don't
mind;

1.) Nonconfrontational modes as alternative to flame wars, this appears
to be a subtle suggestion on your part for motiviating people who disagree
to use more 'civil' methods of discussion. However I get the feeling
you are indicating something deeper here...something more... please explain?

2.) Really loved the extracted text from the book! Simply wonderful! I have been
of this opinion myself for a very long time also! See my post on Acoustic
Fractals! Amazing beautiful music generated from recursive math! Reflections
of eternity? But here is a question for you, is it possible to precisely
isolate and define these 'real' properties of which the author speaks?
If so can they be described without the use of anecdotal stories, emotional
associations or such? I felt the author seemed to still rely on sensate
representations, i.e. metaphorical meanings perceived as being embedded
in the statue at Hindu Kush. I mean shouldnt the 'values' or meaning transcend
what he provided as the detailed explanations of their perceptions? But then
I supose how do we use the serial phonetic construct of our language to adequately
contain an idea that is even beyond lateral thinking... way, way beyond....
perhaps even on the outside of everything we perceive in our consensus, contextual
physical reality.... hmmmm perhaps it is in this modality of thinking that we would
need to be to ever truly discover 'FREE ENERGY'. Hey, you know... the more I think
about your post the MORE I REALLY LIKE IT!!!!!! ;) GIVE US MORE!!!!
