He stopped it in its tracks like a force of nature. its your fear of the unknown that stops you. nothing happens that quickly, I once spoke at length, a couple months, with an extremely intelligent gentleman. He admitted he was phishing, and I didn't mind, as our conversations were utterly fascinating. Within the first 2 weeks or so, we had over 100 e-mail exchanges, and most of the discussions were quite lengthy. He said a very similar thing to me. We played the game for a bit, and I knew he was doing the same thing as I, but accused me of my 'fear of the unknown'. I can't remember the exact conversation, but I asked him something to this effect: After all the things I have been through, and how far I have gotten, do you truly believe I fear the unknown? I didn't need him to answer me, as it was rhetorical. I have never 'stopped'. I have feared. Oh god, have I feared. That fear has never stopped me. I have voluntarily stepped into that fear many times. Many, many times. I know that if I do not, I shall always fear that fear. Sure, other experiences gained later may dull that fear until it is easily manageable and overcome, but that is a long, long process...and quite boring to be honest. He misinterpreted caution for fear. I advised him of that before he could answer my question, because I asked it rhetorically. Smart man, he said. It is always good to be cautious. I believe when/if he re-read my words of past conversations he understood me in a different reflection of his understanding. I know he did going on. Because, he never said anything about fear to me again. |

I think it was brought up one time when Phenn came on and laughed at a 2,xxx something page thread. And, yes, I definitely understand 'just for a moment'. But, there is no doubt he was effective. That was plainly visible. My personal opinion and feeling is, there has been a new, higher plateau reached, and had been reached for some pages back. When that occurs, I think a new thread should be started. But, only when the collective 'participants' all generally reach particular understandings of 'thought' and concepts. The majority of us have embedded the current plateau's concepts and aspects of thought enough to talk about it freely and in a way that is known that as a majority we understand within our base. These types of collective occurrences should be times, IMO, when a new thread is presented to re-invigor the participants. Keep all of us striving and pushing ourselves. The perceptual change of a new thread is exciting. It would feel like we are moving on to new grounds, new higher plains of understanding, instead of being mired in one of this length. When I view it in ways like this, I can see so much more in-depth concepts being...dammit, how do I say this simply? There is an excitement of leaving one thread behind. And, when looking back on that old thread, a feeling of nostalgia and honor. These important feelings of discovery are renewed only briefly when it is a thread of this current thread's length. That is why I said a new thread should be made when certain plateaus are reached, but only with the majority arriving onto that plateau. Make sense?
