Even when sitting still, that's the story of my sitting still. What isn't a story? Ah, the clever ones have fun with that, don't they?

P:I'm sure there is a 'sign' in sign language for sound, but does it really mean sound? And having known nothing but silence can someone deft from birth know silence?

And having known nothing but silence can someone > deft from birth know silence? D: They know it differently, that's all. Knowing anything is a story. Sensing where your joints are in space is a story that the the joints tell in their own language. > I could ask harder questions, if these are too easy. D: Your questions are an aspect of the story that is you. If it pleases you to ask questions, why not ask? Our interactions here form stories, hopefully pleasing us as we spin them -- yet however they form, we are formed choicelessly as the story being told as us.
