Xeno, thanks for your suggestions. I think I skim even when I check my own
posts! So I'll slow down with that and see if I can detect the gaps in my logic.
I really don't like all the space that Neo puts between paragraphs so instead
I'll do what I did here. I skipped to the next line when I skipped to a new sub
topic. I'll see if I like how that comes out once it's sent.
As for my allegedly spongy worldview, maybe it has to do with that *diagnostic
thinking* that I mentioned before and that indicates a strong tendency to make
connections and make big leaps when drawing conclusions. Maybe the slower
checking will help alleviate that.
I'll have to work that line between staunch precision and harsh anger.
Tomorrow, October 5 is the 4th anniversary of my 15 yr long SO. I'm still upset
about harsh words I said to him. So I'm more careful about that in general.

I do not think Judy parrots me at all, and certainly she does not parrot Turq.
If there is a common element which we have all arrived at independently, it is
your thinking, as expressed on FFL, often seems very out of focus when applied
to the matter at hand. Now someone like Judy might not grasp what you are
talking about because the world view gap is significant, but in your case, it
is often hard to determine if there is a consistent experience behind what you
say. I have a definite world view; Turq seems to have a fairly definite way of
viewing life, and Judy has a fairly standard way of approaching those, but I do
not think Judy grasps these world views of ours. And she definitely has a very
well delineated world view.
But I find what I can grasp of your world view is so spongy, like a melted
marshmallow, it is often hard to grasp what you are talking about, which is why
I recommend you post less but spend some time writing longer posts, and
reviewing them once, twice, thrice, before sending them off. I would love to
post more, but I do not have the time or stamina to do it. There have been
times when you have gotten precise and direct - when you are angry, I think,
and then sometimes a staunch precision comes through. I think Judy probably
would like to see more of that from you.
Arguments about world views or states of consciousness do not seem to appeal to
her, telling her that because of her 'lower' state of consciousness she does
not understand something that someone is experiencing in a 'higher' state of
consciousness, or vice versa. It is particularly important when interacting
with Judy to be precise, even though she may use her precision to de-track your
argument in various ways. I do not think Judy often argues with the point to
gain knowledge, just argues for the glory of running you off the rails.
Stephen King wrote a book on writing. Here are a couple of tips:
'Paragraphs are almost always as important for how they look as for what they
say; they are maps of intent.'
'Writing is refined thinking.'

Judy, I don't think the views of Xeno or turq or noozguru spring from the same
prejudice towards me as yours do and therefore they are not similar at all.
Except that you've parroted them.

Actually I haven't parroted anything they've said to you. Sorry, but what I
wrote happens to be my own thoughts about you. But it's certainly interesting
that all three of us have similar views, isn't it? Especially since we don't
agree on much of anything else?

Judy, your parroting some of what Xeno and turq have said to me does not make
your observations or suggestions more valid to me. IMO they are coming from a
more neutral place with regards to me.

You obviously had time to write a detailed response to the post of Seraphita's
you say you just skimmed because you were rushing, Share, so that claim
doesn't hold much water.
As to your having more stuff than others, it's what compels you to spew umpty
posts with almost no content, including your pandering posts and your feeble
attempts at gotcha posts, as well as your inability to take responsibility
for your
