But that's the point Bill, it's not obvious, not least because you don't say what is being obviated? What you actually mean by this gnumic statement.
...but then, that would have required that you actually read the original post.
Unfortunately I do(or is that unfortunately) as evidenced by my first reply to you.
I wish you well in reference to whatever is obfuscating your being.
Or maybe I'm just acting in concert with my mechanism and aims.

As if I will

Save your little psycho-games for those with weak-wills.
Good luck to you. I think I speak for the entire community here when I say, We are here to help you through this anomaly of your being.
The herd is it now! So much for Ouspensky.
...and as far as beginning a philosophical thread - just leave that go for a while...we'll cross that bridge when we reach it. Hopefully, in the not too distant future.
You are delusional if you think you are being Philosophical, you are being a Gnu.
Be well.[/size].
Always am Bill, shame I hear this is not often the case with you. Maybe your 'philosophy' has something to do with it?
