   Tang wrote a good deal about not counting:   
      
   >If I may say so, Daoism and Buddhism are summed   
   >up in not counting.   
      
   People count on all sorts of sorts of sorts.   
   Not counting can mean as you say, which I snipped.   
   And that counts for a great deal, which I appreciated a great deal.   
      
   A question arises, how are Daoism and Buddhism different?   
      
   Eclectic synchronistic thought mixes, matches and blends to sum   
   as some people sum their sums to have things all add up.   
      
   What I've found to be the most interesting, personally,   
   are the differences beyond the similarities to speak of.   
      
   What makes Taoism unique, in other words.   
      
   Thus, in what ways do the similarities not count?   
      
   And, can I quote you and count on your response?   
      
   - thanks!
