ROGER RESPONDS TO WALTERS DEPARTURE

Walter and Squad,

I too am starting a new job and moving to a new city.....Chicago this time. I
am an Executive with a large financial corporation, who has been commuting
between Dallas and San Francisco for the past 3 or 4 months. Often I find the
best I can do to keep up is to print out the posts and study them at
lunch....writing a comments on the margins on everything you all have
written....most of which I never had time to send. Sometimes I finally get my
thoughts together on the plane home.......

Walter, I wish you could stay with us and at least casually follow us,
perhaps adding your comments when things slow down at your new job. I am
going to try to hang on at my current weekend pace, and I look forward to your
insights. If no, at least I hope you will be able to rejoin soon.

By the way, the pace has slowed immensely since Thanksgiving, but the
material is quite well thought out. I will respond soon to yours and the other
posts this weekend. Would you prefer me to send it to your personal EMail?

Oh, and do check out the special quarterly Scientific American that just came
out on Mind Brain and Intellect! (strange coincidence....I picked it up
yesterday) I am reading it now!

Take care all! And we will miss you Walter!

Roger

 Dear Squad,
 
 I realize I've never introduced myself properly, though see no reason to do
that now, because this will be
 one of my last posts. In the time I followed the discussions of the Squad,
there was never a post in which
 someone acknowledged he/she was going to leave the squad, though there are a
lot of members we
 don't hear from anymore. Of course everyone knows how to get back into the
discussion any time, and I
 don't say I never will, but I thought it was the good thing to do, to let you
guys know I'm going to
 unsubscribe soon :-(
 
 The reason I could contribute the last two months was because I was changing
jobs. The project I
 worked for ended which gave a certain amound of spare time. In January I will
start a new job, which I
 know for sure will take up a lot of my time. Therefore I will revert to my
other big hobby which I was
 working on before I joined the Squad, the construction of a neural network.
 
 I often wondered how others managed to keep up with the freight train of
posts. Coming back from
 Venice, I found more than 150 posts to read!!! Am I a fool that I want to
know what others have written
 and also want to check the facts (see Horses great quote), before I can
contribute? Am I the only one
 who thinks there are too many words in the discussion?
 
 Anyway, I want to thank all the writers on the Squad for the progress I have
made in understanding
 something what is best called as a feeling of harmony I have inside. I often
experienced difficulty to
 explain others this feeling and the importance of ZMM and Lila. I think a lot
of you do too. Rationalisation
 of this feeling of harmony is important, for it creates the static patterns,
which are needed to build on.
 The discussions in the squad have brought me further in the process of
understanding. Thanks you all!
 
 - I'm still working on a reaction on Roger's and Horses (o.a.) great
contributions to the morality
 discussion. >>
