Actually, I am impressed by the controlled responses which have resulted.  No
one has seemed to indulge desire-mental consciousness, but at least
"up-leveled" to the mental--i.e., taken egoic refuge in his or her
dispassionate knowledge on the subject.  Some, perhaps, have even shown the
characteristics of the Spirit-mental (Buddi-manas) in that they almost seemed
to regard the possible finding of "schizophrenia-stigmata" on their own
psychic experiences as altogether inconsiderable considering their direct and
"widened" (but not necessarily "logical" or articulatable) apprehension of
the subject.

Eldon allowed us an opportunity *not* to vent our spleens, didn't he?  I
think I was forgetting my own "bullhead" story when I doubted him for a
second. . . .

Godspeed,
