So, for one knowing being this, what ground? I am the ground, so for me -- what ground? geo>You are the ground - what ground? The ground you say you are, of course. Or the ground you say is not, if you prefer. Not sure what ground that might be though... Have I ever said anything about this, except when I fantasized someone else to tell it to and an objectifiable person to speak it? -dan Is this a question to be answered? Why are you asking this?
