Hello John, Yesterday I spent much of the day riding in the open, upperdeck of a big red bus touring NYC. It was a very strange experience. I did see some beautiful buildings which I would never have seen from the ground. Ground Zero was a zero, imho. I would have rather gone to the MoMA, or the Metropolitan, or the Frick. Next time...

But that's not the same thing as mean-spirited. I > dislike mean spirits, but I oft appreciate the contrarian. Marsha: Contrary to who? Contrary to what? Certainly not contrary to my own experience and understanding. Certainly not contrary to an authority since there is no authority on this list but the text and one's interpretation of that text. >> Marsha: >> It seems better to give posters room >> to move.

Marsha: You can present your argument again, but in the past it didn't resonate as correct to my experience. I seem to remember you trying to link the I-level to art. RMP has stated that art is a mixture of all four levels with Dynamic Quality. That works for me. Maybe you understand it related to the intellectual level because your art is words. My definition of the Intellectual Level as being made up of som patterns seems best from my point-of-view, while art is all levels with the spontaneous dynamic guiding the way. > John: > But you already know all this.
