dear david:
your comments about trying to keep on topic made a lot of sense to me. i
took the summary email to work so i could work on it and i realized the more
i looked at it...the more trouble i had with it. it is too general and
doesnt really provide a sense of direction either.
brain~~~~~>mind~~~~~~>patterns of intellect...what else?
so i agree with making it more specific.
