      From: dicksilk@gmail.com              Quick note: when using "reply" functions in a newsgroup, it is possible to       "delete" the entire body of previous text that you are replying to (in Windows       environments, this is accomplished with ctrl-A then Delete, or possibly       backspace) -- this is a        conservative habit I've picked up, from back in the day when bytes were       precious with respect to storage space and transmission time. Still, I like       to think of it as an "efficient" personal habit.              As to the previous thought on blending time in dreams, I would simply suggest       that you pay special attention (when you are recollecting your dreams) to the       way that they *end* -- are they ended cleanly (as most are) or do they       dissolve into random        elements that don't make much sense with the main theme?              An example would be a dream where you are brewing coffee with / for another       individual, but then something appears out of place (like an extra lid on a       coffee pot) followed by something else off topic (like a bug walking across a       counter top and you        leave the coffee pot behind to squish the bug.)              The unblending / fragmentation begins at the point where there's an extra lid       to a coffee pot that makes no sense.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
