I'm a very visual learner / thinker. I usually find it mentally painful (yes 
brow furrowing, headache inducing) to think of hard (distant) ideas until I can 
find an image in my mind's eye. Understood that not everyone thinks like this :)

I was re-reading the original NSF grant proposal, in particular after reading 
this passage:

"Key to the tractability of this approach is the separation of the kernel into 
two complementary facets: representation of executable specifications 
(structures of message-passing objects) forming symbolic expressions and the 
meaning of those specifications (interpretation of their structure) that yields 
concrete behavior."

I was gliding along the surface of a dynamically shifting Klein bottle.

Curious what other people might think.
