Ron,

To me "stable pattern of inorganic values" means inorganic SPoVs that
are very established culturally.  I cannot think of SPoVs as anything
but conceptual.  SPoVs are known (conceptual (value)), phenomenon is
direct experience (value) until a recognized pattern.

Ron:
Thats the way I see it too Marsha. SPoV are conceptual understandings about
dynamic quality.


Ron,

It is great to think you see patterns as conceptual too. Really great!!! Thanks for responding.

Marsha
