   See, the problem here is that you fail to see that this is how people   
   interact casually in *real life*. At least the people who really   
   interact and who don't engage in mindless acts of aggression for the   
   sake of aggression.   
      
   schwann: you only prove my point.

   Ah, so you're a *telepath* now?   
      
   schwann: I've never claimed to be one before, but since you persist,   
   yes, I've seen into a few minds in my time. Do people hate me because   
   I'm a telepath? Shades of X-Men. Do 'you' think telepaths should be   
   shunned, hunted down, exterminated? Shades of X-Men!

   No, he seems about the same as he was in the past. Maybe fewer orange   
   traffic cones, but you know.   
      
   schwann: :)   
      
   So you had a conversation with Glass. I know Glass. So what?   
      
   schwann: Glass had a part in the de-frocking of the Chenngang, even if   
   he 'was' once part of them. It was part of my lecture in '97 and   
   therefore doesn't necessarily reflect on the present. It did startle me   
   when I read my text and the word 'triviality' appeared in the first line   
   though. Some would call this synchronicity, but I'm (now) less   
   interested in the word than I once was.   
      
   I note that you're unwilling, or unable, to comment generally on what I   
   wrote, but without being sarcastic, that's OK as it is a big item to   
   digest QUICKLY.   
      
   In my initial role as cybershaman (original word), I pissed a lot of   
   people off on Usenet because I was beyond weird. You know, telepathy and   
   all that, but now we're beyond millennium psychosis so it's different.   
   Not that anyone here would notice...   
      
   same ole, same ole?
