[Tim] well, I don't know if we *need* to bring in 'entity' or the noun form 'proprietor'. Can 'proprietary' be brought in to your definition if it functions to denote an impossibility of having two 'collections' (as you have defined it - off the top of my head: 'ever-changing, interdependent, impermanent, collections of inorganic, biological, social, intellectual, static patterns of value') break the bound that keeps them 'interdependent' in order to become same, identical? Or, perhaps we could say that the collection is *unique* to you: would this work? If so, I think we have found an essential common ground with Ham. Tim P.S. I went back and looked at the email that got me all bothered when you didn't respond. I didn't see much Quality there. I'm not sure what I was thinking. I know that I thought your response would give me a real clue into your position, and I really was anticipating a response. But, anyway, I'm sorry for what now appears to be an over-reaction on my part. -- [email protected] -- http://www.fastmail.fm - Send your email first class Moq_Discuss mailing list Listinfo, Unsubscribing etc. http://lists.moqtalk.org/listinfo.cgi/moq_discuss-moqtalk.org Archives: http://lists.moqtalk.org/pipermail/moq_discuss-moqtalk.org/ http://moq.org/md/archives.html
