    Hi Platt,

    Good luck with your Beaty-project! In striking certain chords in each
    other, I regard your usually short but compact posts very inspirational,
    usually.

    Yes, yes, experience or consciousness is where you start from and end up
    with. I just try to understand the epiphenomalistic standpoint, even if
    I don't agree with it.
