Guest guest Posted February 3, 2004 Report Share Posted February 3, 2004 > > Perhaps we could rate messages on a illusion/word ratio! > > > There are three illusions on the sentence above...... > (and one implied) How about this? It seems *to me* likely, if I may say so, that it would be possible, should we so choose, to rate messages as exchanged by people (and I am referring to members,/participants here) on this email list, on an illusion per word ratio. > There are three illusions on the sentence above...... There is an illusion in the sentence above, as there is in this sentence. Here's another one for *you*: " This email list has messages. " How many illusions in that sentence? Two more: " This is a sentence. " " This sentence has no illusions. " How many illusions in each of the above? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 3, 2004 Report Share Posted February 3, 2004 What clowns! Where did you get the diplomas to spot illusion? That illusions can be sorted out, isn't that an illusion? Can you divide what is, that way? This message is for Sheila, Thank you sweetheart, although your posts are for spiritual pre- school, they seem to generate most of our post nowadays. So the jaded, the spiritually satieted, we thank you.
