Great insight Matthew. What did Al say about mediocre minds! Question for those neck deep in The Machine: Well, first a qualifier. I have noticed that the more I review a particular topic or element of TGM the more comes to the surface. It seems that my first understanding (which in my arrogance I thought to be complete) was but the tip of the iceberg. This is both disheartening and exciting at the same time, but it leaves me thinking that I will never truly get IT. No doubt I have been able to apply concepts with some success, but as I say from time to time I have just gotta know! So the question for you and others with a keen understanding of this material: What manner of chick has pecked its way out recently? As Homer may have thought you can solve problems starting at the begiining, or starting at the end and working backwards. I would be pleased if you could articulate your latest aha moment? I know that these things can seem private, but tell me anyway! Your posts challenge the status quo in my noggin' Toss us a bone, will ya? I would love to know what Yoda's latest aha moment was! I will write it down and use it as a barometer for my future undertanding.

Weird request? So be it!
