So what do you do with Zen koans? The biggest breakthru I made as a developer was learning to turn off the cortex and listen to the gut. Zen is all about overcoming the handicap we call reason. You yourself are an exemplar of how little can be had from so much reason. A mind is a terrible thing to waste is two words too long. kt -- http://www.stuckonalgebra.com "The best Algebra tutorial program I have seen... in a class by itself." Macworld

I find it amusing that you keep appealing to 'the group', as if they aspire to be as intelligent as you. Yet you are the least competent person here.... *shrugs*

The "group" is the public forum --- comp.lang.lisp that you are currently abusing to satisfy your pathological needs to bicker by targetting me and engaging me in debate. Your incompetence in lisp and and the technical issues make you blind to the fact that you are factually wrong on technical matters as well as reasoning. -- Madhu

If not, say nothing No. I will not. And I will explain why. Here is what you snipped out and replaced with [blah blah blah] The "group" is the public forum --- comp.lang.lisp that you are currently abusing to satisfy your pathological needs to bicker by targetting me and engaging me in debate. Your incompetence in lisp and and the technical issues make you blind to the fact that you are factually wrong on technical matters as well as reasoning. That explains why it makes no sense to explain why you are wrong, since you are only interested in targetting me by engaging me in debate. Your stated motivation was to mock me. It turns out to be indistinguishable when you are posting something `wrong' as a genuine result of your incompetence, and when you are trolling me for a response. However when you are wrong, it is `obvious' to others (not you but others). I will not give YOU the explanation because you may be 1) incompetent to grasp it and 2) dishonest to deny it. If anyone else is genuinely interested, I will address them, but I will not address you in argument, since you are explicitly stalking me and trying to engage me in argument because of your mental condition, and I am not engaging you for that --- you will have to get help elsewhere. -- Madhu |
