https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panspermia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panspermia After many sessions, my past-life-regression therapist and I agreed that I was once a very powerful and influential tardigrade on a glorious faraway planet and that given the prognosis of humanity, I may be once again, but there's more competition this time.

  Man, I wish you lived in my neighborhood with that sense of humor. Seeing Johnny Cash say "I may simply be a single drop of rain", but "I'll remain" and "be back again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again...." had me heaving in a mixture of jovial convulsions and sincere frustration with this dadgum relativity conundrum that ultimately tears us all apart. Brings me to wonder; how many planets might Johnny Cash have thrilled with his reasonably excellent tunes? I just hope that Earth wasn't the only planet in the void to incur the equivalent wrath of Cash + Danzig: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EUWUY57ar18 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EUWUY57ar18 PS: I think it would be perfectly reasonable to have a permanent national Mount Nelson, in approximate accordance with the video in which the concept thereof was reasonably placed slightly above the local peak. I mean, humanity always transcends its circumstances. Why not Willie?

Reading through some of your other comments, I'm convinced you were P.G. Wodehouse last time around. Seriously though, do you write anywhere else online? Great stuff.

    You thrill me, sir! Sadly, my connections (such as they are) are far more banal. Even the mere thought of moving among such scintillating company sends me into gentle ecstasies! What's this?! "One more coruscation, my dear Watson--yet another brain-wave!" I am transported back to a fleeting email exchange with Charles Tart in 2010.

      I appreciate the links and have archived them. Here's one for you: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lawrence_LeShan https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lawrence_LeShan Of Dr LeShan's works, The Medium, the Mystic, and the Physicist I highly recommend, specifically the unabridged version. He worked a bit with Eileen J Garrett[1], the tales of which are quite intriguing. This guy was (and still is @96) 100% sincere. No quackery, no nonsense. I had the privilege of acquaintance with his close friend, Dr Hauser, who I'll always fondly remember. LeShan and Hauser met in the Army as young men and remained friends for life. They were both psychologists, but their focuses diverged. 1 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eileen_J._Garrett https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eileen_J._Garrett

  > you were P.G. Wodehouse "Senator, I knew P.G. Wodehouse! You, sir, ..." Hrm, ahem. Maybe the fellow who burned acrid poetry? (Plum would never worry about a "multi-trillion-dollar black-budget", unless it were used to fund a comm network to exchange pics of Pekingese and tips on the care and feeding thereof ;-)
