Harv,

Sorry about the delay but I have been busy with other endeavors.

Somehow you seem to have missed the central point. As far as this conversation is concerned, considering that I have even extended the definition of "communicable" to include an infinite number of exchanges, any aspect of your mental image of the Universe which is not communicable is certainly not worth discussing! By definition, it is totally worthless when it comes to establishing any mutually acceptable concept of the Universe which we, or any others might agree to.

Can you understand the logic of that position?

Have fun -- Dick
