  When I was watching Michael Dowd's latest presentation
  last August, one of the slides read, in its entirely:

    "Reality is what continues to exist,
     after you cease believing in it."  -- Philip K Dick.

  Reality (day language) is the God (night language)
  that we worship (living night language.)

  I HATE that movie.
  Now *THAT* movie confuses things.

  I get together with my buddies, and we spew venom
  about that movie that would embarrass Tom and make
  him plead with us to be better people.

  If you're mistaking me for that, then PLEASE --
  re-read what I'm saying, and correct for this difference,
  and then please give me whatever tips you can, to
  help me distinguish myself from that kind of thing.

  That's a severe misappropriation of science.

  We're about acknowledging the existence of the
  subjective (night-language,) but we're not about
  confusing night-language with day-language.

  We'll say "We're all connected," (this is one of
  those both-day-and-night language things,) but
  we won't say, "At last, Quantum Mechanics
  proves it." (Which implies that scientists are
  making occult discoveries in the lab.)


  Is that what this is about here?

  Do people think I'm promoting "What the Bleep?"

  Honest here.
