   I've read some of the Seth stuff; but I found it to be too woolly for my   
   taste.   
      
   It's not hard to maintain a consistent and "logical" (in the sense of not   
   contradicting itself) philosophy - that in itself is only useful as a   
   netric if it's _not_ present.   
      
   As I constantly ask: where's the new stuff, the knowledge that no-one has   
   ever had before?
