Krimel,

I'm repeating a question from a few posts ago because I want you to answer:
      Is there even one thing that is not dependent
      on being conceptually constructed
      and established
      by conventional agreement?

The incurable, romantic Krimel is most charming, but I would like you 
to answer the question.


Marsha
