Cannibalism.

Colleen Urlich's pots are amazing, the ubiquitous chevron. I didn't get Ralph Hoterie's painting though, can you help? As for Poet-Kings, it was silly of me, I have read Maori poetry, an old book that I sold (doh!) and I really liked it, very like old Chinese poetry in style, construction and theme (elegiac), I loved it, as I love Maori oratory, though that is a different theme.

I think everyone knows the true scope of what Bradford is trying to achieve.
Thinking for everyone is is never easy.

Then there was that uppity Cherman, Martin Luther. Wotan, does Wotan exist in the Christian God, or indeed in the breast of Cherman's. I must confess to a morbid black forest wish to die in battle in order to gain entry into Valhalla, however suppressed.
As above, so below. -
Mnemonics get me hot. I remember reading of a theory that pottery may someday be able to be "played" like a vinyl record, because the fingers of the potter may have "recorded" nearby noise in the clay as they turned the pots, wha?
Also I would add, when was the last time England had Poet-Kings? -
Ontologically yes, however remember, it is the crooked roads of genius that lead to the palace of wisdom. And we must look to the inverse, would stupidy negatively correlate to incapacity? It cannot be so. How about intent? Is the intent to train positive or negative? If one is trained and they are unaware of being trained, are they being trained? And what of outcomes? My darker side says to me that all training holds within itself gain for the trainer and loss for the trainee.
Better to give of yourself freely and forget the outcome quickly, thereby freeing yourself of an inexplicable net. For as Blake says, All wholesome food is caught without a net or a trap. -
Small voice...the snake is the cthonic God.
Now that Wotan is a God's God. -
The Sudetenland, I must research, didn't the little moustach invade? I still have my Grandmothers ski medals including someone elses (her Mother's?) from Germany, great fonts. My Granfather used to turn ski's in the bath and use them or rent them out, they ski'd the Ruahine's, I have strange photos from that time. I was held back from the snow but received weapons training none the less, including horse work, but that's another story.
Now where would you have done cross country skiing?
As for The Fall, I'm on the side of the Antinomists , thank God for Eve and the snake. -
Well my pod head would ask for intelligence to be defined and my behaviourist sock would say you can't mentalize, but in the interests of discourse I will say yes that trainability is related to intelligence and that intelligence is related to character and character is both innately and experientially driven. Cats are curious, they can be trained, and bear in mind that they are the only domesticated animal (close proximity to humans has a sorry track record, why dogs can be maudlin and GP's pot shy), to retain the ability to hunt for food, though intelligent enough to simply adopt people if necessary.
