Dear list,
Here is a message to everybody. I read EVERYTHING. I have a hunch, so does
everybody else. If you have something worthwhile, POST IT! The quest for new
knowledge is random (DQ). This site is a bunch of NTs and NFs in a
think-tank. (For explanation of NT and NF, go to Keirsey.com)
Paul says: I should probably sit
on the sidelines and review more before jumping in but there's just not much
Quality in that for me.
Never be a benchwarmer, sir. Go nuts with the rest of us. Go to: Lila pg
370.

You got it. Mu on a Static level. Mu is DQ's way of telling SQ to sit down
and shut up.

This is Mu State and the Box theory. See my other posts this month.
Sincerely,
Matt Coughlan
P.S. I think I overran my four posts a day limit. Suck.
