Andre,

You make an astute assessment when you point out to me that I don't make a
functional difference between self and ego.


I don't.


Maybe I should.  You make some good points for doing so.


So far, I've gotten along by an intellectual distinction between attachment
and  detachment while allowing for semantic differences in the way people
use the terms.


But, it's always just so handy when your semantic distinctions follow along
with your metaphysical ones, so I can see a good reason to use the term ego
when discussing the concept of the isolated self, and the term "self"  when
referring to the platform of choice for the entity I happen to be, without
ascribing said entity with any intrinsic values (ain't following Ham down
THAT rabbit trail, nope, no sir)  and a firm appreciation for the contextual
ones.


Values, that is.


What the IN-query is all about, just like it posits on the little pink
cover.
