Lewis, if you don't mind, I'm going to transport our moveable feast

over to the GuruRatings list. Nothing against Nis. but I'm trying to

simplify my life and I have to keep my affiliations to a minimum.

 

You raise some key issues and I want to address them, but it looks

like I'll have to do it on company time. (It's OK, my boss is

nondual.)

 

Later for you, Lew.

 

I'll tell you one thing though, my memory IS shot. Too much old age,

too much TV, too much ganja. I now have an IQ of 33.3.

 

But I'll try to carry on as long as you are willing. But if I have

to go back and read my own posts, then forgetaboutit. I can tell you

now, that there's nothing back there (that I have written) that would

interest me in the slightest.

 

So maybe we are at a crossroads or even at a dead end.

 

As I was saying on the GR board to sai, " Whatever. It's All Good. "

At least right NOW.
