Howdy, Jim,
A pie has a crust, and the physical world is just a crust of the world.
I speak as a physical scientist, and I am not bullshitting you.
If you lament about the crumbly state of the crumby or crummy crust, that is OK
from one perspective, but your view and critique seem to be due to a choice you
have made.
Your observation is a sniping one, because it is out of context; and, false,
from other points of view, which you can as well take.
What about the contents of the pie, not just its exterior? Have you tasted?
Crust and contents are better together.
The exterior must be salty and savory, to make the sweet contents all the more
sweet. You know this! You are just fixed on one vision tonight. That happens.
I sometimes get "down" when I see the state of, oh..., say, Politics, too. ;-)
w/ Cheers,
--Joe
