If you need a slap; I'm on hand!ButI don't give them out free if you want
one you're going to have to prove you're a "degenerate piece of scum" then
you better duck my friend!

Unlikely!

Buff,
What I know and can share usefully will all be born from Pirsig: as you know
i'm untrained in academia , but i've got one hell of a keen sense for people
who care, and you care! If there are mastadonic holes in your philosophy you
will fix/fill them when that becomes obvious, your propensity towards, " a
valid search for the truth " rather than imposition of your values/theories
on others, is self evident. >
I am aware that in this Forum some of the ideas you hold dear can be rent
asunder with little care, that attitude is dying right now; be as right as
you like, be spot on, 'be'; so well that it makes me laugh with the
undeniable knowlegde that what you say is true, I love it; but care too.
I hope we as a group can act more amicably towards each others ideas, thanks
to Horse for piping up when some of the namecalling got out of hand, I see
the fruits of your labour coming through!

Buff:
I believe there is enough force evident within the group, to stop this, and
there certainly enough passion within the group to change perceptions, and
*no-one* is immune however statically entrenched they are: a static pattern
of value cannot preclude Dynamic change!

The only thing I can do is remain an ironist,

Buff:
I am willing to work with this international community to help you achieve
those goals! Expect to continue to expand your horizons and expect to need
new words!
P.S Has anyone amongst us thought to send a copy of 'Lila' to the
Whitehouse, it doesn't cost too much and you never know!
Buff xx
