Hey, Vaj: Would you consider telling me what your diagnosis is of Ravi Chivukula? Since you claim to have an explanation for his behaviour, how about doing me the courtesy of giving your interpretation of Ravi Chivukulasimply to disprove my claim that no one at FFL has confidence that they have understood the causal basis of Ravi's Transgressive Mode (RTM).
Since your whole thesis (at least in your previous post) is to contradict my contention that Ravi Chivukula defies any common sense understanding, I think it only fair that you disabuse me of my fixation, since my concern here (according to you) is entirely misplaced and ridiculous. I am begging you, Vaj: Robin wants to be able to fit Ravi Chivukula into his metaphysical paradigm: you can help me do this by telling me what Ravi Chivukula is all about. And what I want here, is what you promised me is the truth; namely, that you have a specific *experience* and understanding of what Ravi is up toand why. Please just give me the broad outlines of your personal experience of Ravi Chivukula so that I can at least make contact with one person who 'gets' him. This will put a stop to this whole controversy. At least it will for me. Tell us now, Vaj: what gives with the Ravi boy? And please, use some of your powers of persuasion which draw upon your real experience. Don't make it up. Because we will know the difference. All what you say below has nothing to do with the issue:either of Ravi Chivukula, or myself. So, you do not intend to climb that mountain, then, Vaj? Believe me, the view is much better from up here.
