Picking up on what Brad said about reality really being in the head.

Ahhk! I don't want to say taht "reality is really in the head", because *the head itself* is part of the reality that is *in experience*. The "container" is the event of experiencing being in the world (Heidegger's "Being-in-the-world", e.g.; Kenneth Boulding's little book _The Image_ is pretty good about this, too. And of course there are other sources.)

If reality is "in my head", then my head as being what reality is inside
of is "in my head", too.

Following John Warfield and C.S. Pierce and many others who finally got it,
it occurs to me that the concept of tariff has nothing to do with the
theories but instead is simply a wall.    We use walls for everything.
The point is what works as a wall and what doesn't.    Now if I was to use
the local use of the ideal in the development of a wall then I would have to
say that as few walls as possible are the best way to go.

Something there is that doesn't altogether dislike a wall.

Of course we don't want to multiply walls unnecessarily.
But submariners, astronauts, medical persons treating
patients with communicable diseases, et al. find walls
not altogether bad.

And, for those who like large numbers ("only 14 million",
etc.), the only way I think one can "pack" large numbers
of persons into small volumes of space and still
preserve space for the elaboration of higher cultural
values (or even for getting a peaceful night's
sleep...), is with well-insulating walls.  Persons
can live graciously in New York skyscraper apartment
houses because they have thick *walls* between the
apartments.

Q: What did the virus say to the host cell?

A: "Tear down that wall!"
