Has anybody ever called you G-dog? Anyways...
Excellent point. And that's at the heart of where I'm
pointing. What are inconsequential matters? I have
an idea, but this social structure with a population
of 250 million and then millions in Europe, India,
Australia, Japan, China, Taiwan, Singapore, Russia,
United Arab Emirates, and Brazil, etc... find it
important to cash their pay checks. It is not that I
find this 'the way to go', but you see where I'm
coming from?

So, do you just exchange goods at the cash
registrar, maybe say hi, and chat about the weather
and how hot it has been, and then, you leave, go back
home, and think back to Clouds (I say this, for I
still remember that post of yours and that thread. It
was very enjoyable.)

Ok... the collection of patterns of value called
personality that different animals have, not sure what
how I diverted from this statement?

I'm not going to depend on my own thinking to find
out about you. That's why I asked you questions
above.
