Ho Dan,
Sorry for the delays. Spring is here and I've less free time on my hands
than olden days. I'll try and make it count.
("for a change", I hear you mutterin'...)

You don't have to choose to care. But you can. It's an optional choice.
You have to choose caring, if you want life, but many people don't
particulary care about life, and they don't choose to care, nor do they
choose to believe in a cosmos where choice is possible. That's their choice
and they can't be argued out of it because it's a choice deeper than
intellect.
So I am setting up a "predetermined precondition for caring" - choice.
Choice is the predetermined precondition for caring. Choice is
co-fundamental with Quality. That's my point. I think it agrees with RMP,
because he took the realization of Choice as solved by the MoQ, and I don't
know if he means in exactly the same way I'm describing, but I believe it
does prove a solution so I pretty much agree there.
