miscommunication.
The latter artifacts could in fact be something other than noise or
individual pathology. It could be ubiquitous historical bias (group
pathology) and be the only thing worth bringing to light. The
so-called `infrastructure' could be a cognitive black hole and only
serve political players. Not that I'm cynical or anything.
