If I could only make you see that when my cat plops down in the sun it does
so because of SQ, a static pattern of "it's better here," formed by eons of
similar responses of cats to the sunshine. Patterns of the inorganic and
biological levels are so static, so locked into place, that we refer to them
as laws -- the laws of physics and the law of the jungle. Atoms and cats cannot
change their ways: you and I can as we respond to DQ.
