Hi Arlo and Platt,

It seems both of you are saying the same thing, to me.

How about this?  We cannot step outside, but we can look outside.  We
don't need mirrors to do this, so there is no paradox.  This is all
about creating, not finding.  Looking is a verb, not a subject or
object.  Many languages put verbs as the primary focus rather that who
is doing it or what it is doing it to.  This is the dynamic v the
static.
