Sorry, I've been wanting to respond to this all morning, but the
problem is that I need to do some more research before I outline
anything. However, what I will do, now, is drop the concept that
we've yet to discuss the Ethereal Plane. And, I think my former
categories are more ethereal than truly astral. I'll have a think
over the weekend and recategorise these, with a few additions and
definitions that might help. ;-)
