Dmb,

As you know, I have been told not to write about my understanding of the 
Intellectual Level.  It was a request made in late 2010 by Horse, which you are 
well aware of.   If the accusation of evasion is based on this, I will admit 
that it is a topic that I avoid.  

I would love to hear your interpretation of the Intellectual Level.  I've asked 
you a number of times to explain it, but you have evaded presenting an 
explanation.  Please explain.  

Marsha
