hah, chaos!
I have a life (as much as any working schmuck in Silicon Valley can) I just also have a job that comes with DSL and downtime when Design issues get mind numbing. So I come here and stir the pot.
I'd like to point out that the effect I had in mind occured: I gave you all somewhere to babble so other threads could (hopefully) stay on subject. The posted subject was pretext: how much meaning do you take from traditional linguistic forms and how much from you're own interpretation? Ideas are rarely expressed in a single format. and almost never expressed in an impromptu medium utilizing formal mechanics. I just thought I'd see if I could get some of the creativity of the online text-dialect in one place. It could be fun.
