Hi Ian
Yes I caught it, wish they'd get rid of Melvyn though,
he's a bit out of date.

But to the extent that one follows Dynamic Quality, which is undefinable,
one's behavior is free.

You've stated before that "only man responds to Dynamic Quality". Does
this
mean that man's behavior is the only thing in the universe that is not
deterministic?
If not, since you've said a cat cannot respond to Dynamic Quality, how is
his behavior "free"? Or is your cat governed strictly by deterministic
laws?
Or are you going to say now, and agree with me, that your cat can indeed
respond to DQ (making it "free" from deterministic laws, albeit "less
free"
than man whose respond to DQ includes social and intellectual level
affordances)?
So which is it? Is your cat's behavior "free"? If so, is it because it
can
"follow Dynamic Quality"? And if not, how else can it be "free"?
