Ron,

Sorry, I have no notion how to make the question any clearer.  I thought since 
you had something to say about 'intellect,' you might have a hypothetical 
opinion as to how 'intellect' fits within the MoQ's levels?  

Hahaha!  Just one of the wonderings that at times dance through my flow of 
patterns.
