Thank you, Ron.  I don't know that I've earned those compliments, but it's 
gratifying to hear that I can be instrumental in "bringing things together". 
Would that others might see that I'm not just a nit-picker peddling my own 
cause here.  To be compared with Bodvar is most flattering.  Indeed, I'd 
hoped for the opportunity to share notes with Bo, since his commitment to 
SOL is as passionate as mine for Essence.  I've also noted some "coming 
around" in the thinking of a few like you on the metaphysical side, 
including Craig, Krimel, Squonk -- even DMB.  It goes to show that Hegel's 
thesis-antithesis-synthesis formula applies as well to philosophy as to 
history.

Kindest regards,
Ham
