Mike,
Hugh betcha. But I want the written koan from Edgar, which he suggested. I
lament it has not been, and is not, forthcoming. Short-circuited to ground, to
earth.
My challenge had not to do with "Intellect"; that was -- and still is --
Bill!'s challenge, and Bill!'s invitation. Similarly, not fulfilled... , not
RSVP-ed.
There may be a defense for that, but it should not come from ...you.
On the other hand, maybe nowhere else. But, still unsatisfying when it seemed
there was potential for all here/there. ;-)
Alas, and alack.
Every roll of the dice is a gamble.
Cheers!
