Magnus,
We are in tune! We share harmony. We are waves in Quality. MoQ
interpenetrates both the violin and (we of SPoVness are) its strings.
We make music. We make waves. Yes!!
(Note: recently I challenged TLS to seek the Latin and Greek roots of
the word 'fecund.' None shared their findings, so I will show what I
discovered. 'fec' and its rough equivalents mean 'make.' 'und' is
wave. So 'fecund' is to make waves or be a maker of waves. Now
consider that these terms were set by our antecedents several millennia
ago. I am awed by this.)
Obviously, I agree with the above dialogue.
But, would it not be instructive now, at this special event, to answer
the question: "Why?" Why is DQ both moral and immoral?
Strangely, I sense this may relate to Bo's recent efforts on Eugenics.
Looking forward to your version of the answer, Magnus.
Mtty,
Doug Renselle.
