Matt, DMB, I didn't see the original exchange, but here you quote each about the other:

I hadn't realized the blank page idea had come from Third Wave Dave. I like it as an expression of DQ - I have tended to refer to it as "pure potential" - in the blank-slate / tabula-rasa sense (an old idea I picked up from Pinker). I think it's a magnificent role for DQ, the leading edge of pure experience is pure potential, minimally constrained by static patterns in any level.
