The elements of A are an important part of an explanation but, being able to model A, is not to be able to model an explanation. A is nothing more then information, as such, A need not be an explanation. A model of an explanation must also provide a method of establishing one's expectations. Thus we have another very important aspect of an explanation to include in the model I am trying to build here.

You have perhaps read some of my exchanges with Harv. What is significant in that exchange is that A itself could be an explanation (explanations are just another form of information). That leads to a very significant insight which we can discuss after you understand my model of an explanation.

I get a very distinct feeling that you are reading this carefully with thought and I thank you very much.
