    mel:
    That is almost poetic...it seems almost to make embracing
    dynamic quality a heroic act of will -- in all capital letters.

    Another example of the poetic shading in the use of language
    (a cultural artifact) descriptively to add a depth of meaning that
    informs us more on the given subject, than a mere use of
    language in a technical shading to give an inventory-of-structure.

    Nice contrast.

    thanks--mel
