Nice of you to pop in. I've popped and popped this my text you responded to a bit since then. Found yet another strange word or two to pop in. Did you notice, by the way, that I've used almost all the words that find a source in the etymology of bright? (Except, glaucoma, diaper and, incredible isn't it, Brights' Disease [chronic nephritis, now what could that be?] and terminator, hm, did I use that?) Oh, what a word, that 'bright', what a wealth of connotation the word has - 'white' and 'black' and chiaroscuro and cerulean, celadon, vermillion, scarlet, gold and zircon. Whoo.

I will, absolutely (pop you onto my friends list), furikoneko. I intended that, and Prof.M too.

That 'default position' mentioned lately by Prof. is a very good starting point for to build a world-view beginning from middle ground.
Thanks for putting me on your own friends list, I appreciate that. This blogging thing is fun. In this journal I intend a bit of reflection on things that are on and about for me. I do think I'm getting myself involved in a few interesting things that could have some bearing on the brights agenda. Be telling about it.
