  Well, perhaps you chose a bad verb on accident or without thinking?

"Stored in" is a deliberate choice, based on Vygotsky's work, which says this is where the mind is stored, and in five years I've never wanted to change that basic concept. See my ancient essay if you like, (members.iglou.com/hettingr/pirsig/DefiningSocial.html)

Gary's response: I just jumped over to your web site! Impressive. I'm downloading your essay to read. And checking out the rest of your writings. More comments later.
