'grasping for concrete meanings'
what does that sound like to you marsha?
Hi Margaret,
The conventional view. Well, it is hard to believe Ian wasn't more
impressed by Nagarjuna. But it's difficult to break those cultural
glasses. I've really worked at it, and I'm not convinced it's mine
thoroughly inside-out. And I'm sure all too often my language sounds like
the old view. But I would have thought the "middle way" would have really
attracted him. He so found of the excluded-middles.

At the risk of winding DMB up further, but I'm serious, I think
the idea of "rigorous" argument is part of the Giant - one reason
I personally prefer conceptual slipping - lateral thinking of
sorts - and joining up dots not otherwise connected in logical,
causal ways. Traditional "rigour" grasps for those concrete meanings.

Right. You're not a clueless, drivel-spewing weasel. You're just
trying to be free of the Giant. Yea, that ought to save face. And
you can be certain that people will believe it In fact, that's
gotta be one of the most believable things I ever heard.
