Well - there are parasites... and parasites... and you are clearly of the
benign and useful sort...

Well, if you were familiar with the work of Lynn Margulis, you would
understand that I don't disparage the status of the parasite...
There's a convincing argument that parasites were key to the evolution
of complex cells, and consequently most of what we experience in life
(re-entrant tuning included). But I am really thankful for this list,
and for the work y'all do.

I agree with Jocelyn. Chris - I find your posts refreshing and
insightful and I enjoy listening to you playing the music.
We are all on a voyage of discovery here and we don't have to come up
with neat little answers to every question.
