[MD] Language Games (was Theatre and Definitions)

[David M]

Hi Ant

Your changes are good. But you know I think the time has come
for DQ to be very precisely framed, or cornered, because it needs
to come out of the cult cupboard, and become available to everyone,
even Matt.

regards
David M

>>It is hard to know what to say. I agree with DMB that DQ is

>>it is SQ, DQ is what is left behind and obscured by all differentiation.

>>He who pursues learning will increase every day;
>>He who pursues Tao will decrease every day.
