Greetings Steve,

I still do not understand Bo's problem.  As I've said when all are 
seen as interrelated and interconnected static patterns of value, the 
subject/object problem dissolves.  (At least in theory, in practice 
old habits are a bit difficult to break.)   And I've always had a 
problem with an upper DQ/sq level.  DQ should not be confined in any 
visual way.  It certainly should not be confined to a level.  Bo's 
tenaciousness is remarkable, but has convinced me of nothing.
