I can see birds flying happily in the sky through the window. It is good.

'I love government,' Sunny reminisced whistfully. 'Government is force by definition. Whatever it has, it has taken.' Milt offered without obligation. 'Of course. I have sufficiently considered the tradeoffs. Being of sound mind, I rationally choose government.'. Sunny stated. 'Perhaps your focus cannot account for relevant unseen unmeasurables.' Milt responded Sunny considered carefully before responding respectfully, 'Let us bravely discuss the matter, nuances, intricacies, subtleties, in our shared quest for ever widening understanding! I am eager to learn that which now eludes me -- the nature of my personal bias, or at least what of it your enlightened wealth of shareable experience, knowledge, and extraordinary depth of comprehension may illuminate of any blindnesses I carry, or illusions I hold!' Conversations that must exist if the token libertarian's assumptive premises are sound. The logical conclusion of an aim to rationally maneuver freedom into existence through language.

Maybe the interplay between free will and determinism is like a moebius strip. If I make great decisions while course correcting as needed, I have a good chance of being ready to make the right choice in an important moment. And then I can be grateful for what does not entirely feel like an independent decision in retrospect, and certainly was not one over which my control was the common thread that guided results.

By measuring only the correlation between the angle of attention between two isolated subjects housed adjacently, one could (?) either demonstrate reasonable grounds for further study or rule out wide swaths of paranormal conjecture. IOW record the slope on two dimensions of the angle eyes point from pupil to focal point. Do humans in proximity tend to look up simultaneously? At some star? At each other? Toward a shared concern? Identical twin test next, with or without growing up together.

One can create a music scene and develop a marketable image. And it even has precedence in the market. But it will be vulnerable to capture, suffer attrition in inverse proportion to enlightenment among listeners, and become an ever heavier cape over time. A character is more replaceable than an authentic individual. Loyalty to the man, or loyalty to the costume? Reflect self truly is to be best.

A series of currency coins for circulation. All are the same size but vary in copper, silver, gold content. Standard design with small earth in center in most valuable metal. Serials for vanity addresses.
