Jerry, when a mirror appears in the field of sight, then the eye can see itself. Its owner may ask him/herself: What is behind that mirror? But the mirror is there, so behind it is also what is behind the eye. But the world too. So it is the (eye-owner??s) world, and the owner of the world, being a part of it. All that is a reflection in another mirror, a bit further away. Solipsism is assuming an endless series of mirrors behind mirrors. Sounds like hell. Can you show a way out, for Quasimodo of Notre-Dame, and us all? Something like transcendence or what ever? Best, Helmut
