Bo & Foci,
Dear Bo, Let me quickly respond to your comments and then return the topic.

"You're welcome" I was not mocking you. Mockery is a waste of time in my
opinion. I don't believe that I'm the first to acknowledge your efforts.
(There have been others) But, I wouldn't exactly hasten to describe your
efforts as humble.
<>
"I understand, Comrade" But, remember to leave yourself enough room to
experience your own SOLAQI, dynamically and this will win hearts. Let the
"Poetic Genius" do the talking for your philosophy and drop the static
preacher routine.
<<Couldn't your "creative force is Opposition" be integrated into the
MOQ as dynamic value's constant opposition to stable value? A
static level growing more rigid creating stronger tension that finally
will results in a "mutiny".>>
Yes, but it is much larger than that. Opposition is progression. It is the
Motion inside of Quality. It is not "really" separate from the MOQ, Therefore
no integration is truly needed. (a little fuzzy) But I long to describe my
Philosophy of Opposition, for the purpose of Vision. I'm still in a lateral
drift, rather than an actual pursuit. Thank you for your thoughts!
Now Foci, My return to the topic.
We seem to be lost in the levels for this month. I guess it means that the
Giant is a challenging topic. Which is good. Anyway, most of you are
discussing the Giant as Social vs. Intellectual patterns. It is a good
conversation and I encourage everybody to continue their discourse.
As for myself, I am off the beaten path. I am discussing "cities as living
entities" in an imaginative way. My shift in view falls between the
inorganic-biological levels. (Although not MOQ correct, I find it creative
and fun as well as constructive) Let Imagination be your microscope with me
and look at ourselves as building something beyond our understanding (like
when Pirsig said that a city is beyond any one person) Life from nothing is
my point, only on a larger scale. My computer is nothing more than plastic,
resin and metal right? The latest large-scale computer virus (love bug) seems
metaphorically similar to various body viruses. Can you see our advancements
in genetics blending with communication advancement for a larger structure?
(Artificial Intelligence) Evolution seen as layered form? All the while, we
play our separate parts and are entertained by virtual realities? Are you
just complicated Matter? If so, HOW did this Happen?
Gotta Go, The blood stream is starting to move me to work.
Ahhh, Resistance is Futile! (Borg Collective quote)
