By the way, this contributing, this sharing is
social. What we share can be thoughts. If we so wish
to get into low-high quality thoughts, this is all
upon the intellectual level, eh? This low-high
quality thoughts is another angle I've seen described
here. How we decide which thoughts are low-high,
well, the value upon these thoughts would be decided.
Who decides? quality, which includes individuals and
society, decide, thus, evolution decides. Have
high-quality thoughts been discarded? Sure, and
latter 'discovered', reiterated, 'explored', and we
all eventually come back to this original present
moment where dq and sq split.
