<Line-Dancing even angels wonder about. (It's a favorite debate
question at the Bi-Millenial All-Universe Solipsism Tournament. i.e
Resolved: No more than "X" angels can line-dance upon the head of a
pin.)
Interpretive Dance often requires only one.>

Okay. Interpretive dance, hum. Let me me. How about someone actually
went through the drill (*again*) to make sure everything still works
on the cellular (pin-point) level - as previously determined many,
many times? just in case people don't believe that life happens at all
- and especially just in case people think substances are "dangerous"
and want to ban 'em all?

Actually it's quite interesting to see everything still works and that
someone can actually get away with a re-affirmation and - somehow -
scrape together the $$ to do it, submit the thing for PR and someone
will actually publish it?

I thnk it's kinda sweet. Something like "Songs from Pippa Passes".
"God's in his / her heaven, all's right / wrong with the world." IOW
it's okay.

I'm really impressed that someone actually used the word "solipsism".
Crashing reminder of the unused vocabultary - what's the incidence of
this word in common use? I hope it's still in the Oxford.

You have to ujnderstand the Thomas. He is - or used to be - a
vegetarian. If I've had any influence at all he is at least wavering
and considering his patriotic duty to consume Alberta beef in large
quantities. Of if he can get it, British Columbia beef is even better.
Anyway I owe the Thomas (aka the Clanking  One - a vote of thanks
since I finally got my serum ferritin done just to rule out
hemochromatosis which was the one remote possibility that iron would
cause any problems whateoever. Anyway as it transpired last fall, so
far was I from a case of hemochromatosis that I have an IRON
DEFICIENCY ANEMIA - and that's a no brainer considering I have Crohn's
disease so what else would have been new? so now I take my iron
tablets and am begining - SLOWLY - to feel MUCH better and - ta DA -
my BRAIN is much less FOGGY.

I'm now willing to attribute Fibrofog to IDA and say "get your serum
ferritin checked" because ta the same brood draw I had a NORMAL CBC
(of course "normal" is just ridiculous) but hemoglobin
"fine" (according to doctor) and no microcytic anemia - so how would
he ever have known I had an IDA if I had not asked for a serum
ferritin, and I never would have asked for it if I hadn't been reading
the Clanking One's posts for the past six years on and off - but of
course he's been posting about the supposed evils of iron
supplementation and the eating of red meat - so thereyago. It's an
important point and he raised it. It only took me SIX years to get the
test done and to act on the results and start treating this HORRIBLE
deficiency disease. Which has NOTHING to do with diet.

So not to worry about the Clanking One - we just have to keep telling
each other "don't forget to get your serum ferritin and your serum
vitamin D done" and gradually, gee, maybe after a few years we
wouldn't have much of a newsgroup left. Except no, I don't think so. I
think we're always going to have some people here trying to find out
how they can get their body/brains back - I'm just beginning to get
mine back and one of my first thoughts - after giving all the
appropriate thanks - including thanks to the Clanking One for keeping
this debate alive and up here (no matter how inadvertant that might
have been) - I am planning my Next Move which is to go back and finish
what I started a Long Time Ago. ;-)))

Cheers from Mrs Magoo who gives credit where credit is due (~Q'Q~)

Howdy. What a pleasure meeting y'all here. I'd like to take up the
matter of the nature of angels.

I believe Dante established their corporeal nature in "The Inferno",
when he and his friend ascended from the horrors of the Flaming Pit.

I heard Dante's translator (or I guess one of them, this one is
current) describing how the corporeal - non corporeal thing was not
really documented with any definition before Dante wrote his "Inferno"
- it seems the most impressive aspect of his creative genius lay in
his actually described in terms generally used of a real corporeal
existence every imaginable detail of the Infernal Regions.

And most tellingly, he described his ascent from the Inferno which he
and his friend accmplished by clambering with considerable difficulty
on and over and up the clearly corporeal body of Satan. It was my
understanding from that discussion that Dente had more or less cast
the various technical details in A Form. Till his day anyone could
have any idea of the details of Paradise and Hell and the terrestrial
world. I suppose Dante would have been working along lines similar to
that of a natural historian. It seems Dante thought the terrestrial
world the most beautiful of all the spheres of existence.

It's interesting that someone let this matter slither away here to
examine the matter of interpretive dance which was done by one. ;-)
