[MD] Stuck on a Torn Slot

[118]

Hi Marsha,
Thanks for the view below.  I would have to say, that the intellectual level
has a dynamic component to it.  Even the static concepts as you put, are
dynamic.  As you state, the manipulation of these symbols can be seen as a
static process, but I think there is more to it than that.  As such, the
intellectual level is interactive, and arises out of other things.  The end
result in writing may be SOM, but the process isn't.  We cannot mistake the
fruit for the tree.

It is a creative process, and is part of DQ.

IMO,
Mark
