[Mary Replies] Digging ever deeper...  So, Ian, I gotta ask ya (and DMB and
Bo and all) WHAT is the purpose of the Intellectual Level.  If we can agree
that each level is something that has ³taken off on a purpose of its own²
and achieved ³levelhood² because it wants/desires/values something different
from its parent level, then what is the Intellectual Level after? What does
it really value that¹s different from the Social Level?  Don¹t pop off an
answer too quickly, you guys.  Think about this.  I am... still.

Hi Mary and all,

IMHO Do you want a creator¹s internal view?  I don¹t know what that might
be?  

The question you ask would follow a discussion about evolution.  Is there a
purpose for evolution?   I have no control over evolution and can only
describe its purpose as creating levels in existence.  Are there limits?
How many levels? 

I am a singer and for variety I prefer the musical scale Do, Re, Mi_Fa, Sol,
la, Ti_Do, as a model for an evolution of differing values.  Imho only one
level in reality and differing levels in individuality would be a nightmare,
or boring!  No Butterflies!
