Hello Jack

Thanks for toning down the CAPs prose.

You seem to be aware of the fact that your writing has a tendency to
barrage the reader with a lot of confusing terminology - some of that
terminology, I confess, I've never hear of. One needs a
Harbach-O'Sullivan glossary in order to understand all the
"yadda-yadda" stuff. However, you are aware of your short comings and
that makes points in my book. Nobody is perfect! Certainly not me.

As Terry has previously commented, I too have a difficult time
following the flow of your logic. I hasten to add, however, that my
own intellectual predilections tend to gravitate towards mythic
interpretations. To compensate, I often try to communicate with my
fellow colleagues by following the rules of linear oriented
techno-speak in order to stay grounded. I see a lot of personal
interpretation of what reality is supposed to be made up of in your
prose. My perception of what you're writing strikes me less as
scientific theory or hypothesis in the making, and more as modern
mythic interpretations of our perceptions of reality, where you use a
rich word-salad of technical terminology to couch the mysterious
underpinnings of Mother Nature. I hasten to add that writing in the
style of modern mythic prose is NOT in itself a bad thing. Far from
it. Problems only occur when mythic interpretation (which IMHO are
just as valid a perception as scientific interpretations) get confused
as being a scientific interpretation. IMHO, we need... our society
needs both perceptions in order to evolve. They need each other.

BTW, I'm a recovering dyslexic. I constantly battle against inflicting
turgid prose amongst my potential readers. Some days... some posts are
better than others.

You have my sympathies.
