[MD] Changes in 2011

[Ian Glendinning]

Just a couple of brief comments Tim,
(Horse has asked for breathing space before any particular suggestions
/ actions .... don't jump to conclusions.)

You said
"You had a bunch of posts after this one I replied to earlier.  I read
some of them.  I saw then that you too might be a misfit!"
[IG] Then you must agree your reading of the situation is based on
very limited short term experience.

You said
" .. so 'progress' is "whatever happens"?!"
[IG] No, the process matters. (There were 8 or 10 other words in the
sentence you snipped those two from).

You said
"  .. first, the pattern that was chosen seems to be 'not-xxxx'; and I
don't see how that is higher quality than 'xxxx'.  I am baffled."
[IG] You're baffled because you are objectifying (dare I say reifying)
'xxxx' as a particular pattern and creating a false dichotomy. I'm
talking about a balance of sq and DQ interactions - a process
involving many overlapping patterns, not an object subject to simple
"accounting" of value.

Regards
Ian
