   Sorry that, apparently, nothing that I said meant anything new or valid   
   to you.   
      
   Sorry too, that I just do not have the time to respond to everything you   
   have said here AND it seems to me at this point that there would be no   
   point to anyway - you definitely have your own ideas and your mind is   
   set.   
      
   I did mean to include the following link to my article about intuition,   
   which examples of do not fit your explanation above. I guess I will   
   include it here, but looks like probably for no good reason

   --   
   P.S. In the twenty years that I have lived in Virginia Beach, VA,   
   I have only attended a conference at the A.R.E. one time. I am    
   not into their conferences, nor do I ever know what they are,   
   unless I find out by happenstance, which was the case regarding   
   the one that I attended. I go to the A.R.E. for numerous other   
   reasons, and it is always a joy for me to be there - the place   
   is so great. Maybe you are not aware, but there are many many   
   other things and activities at the A.R.E. than their conferences   
   AND their conferences are only held like once a month or something.
