Some volunteers looking at the lastest version [i.e. through the
page's source] and test reading what's drafted so far to make sure
none of this is too cryptic or vague. Critically thought-out feedback
is also highly-appreciated to test comprehension accuracy.

---

If anyone disagrees with the fundamental perception of reality,
feedback pertaining to that is very much welcome however not a
priority unless you have quantifiable evidence of a severe error, such
as a demonstrate-ably notable text with an authoritative audience or
intuition based on shared or communicable observation.
[i.e. videography, scenes in notable fiction with either authoritative
authorship or audience, bulletins or bulletinized documentation with
either attribute, characteristics of any major language which suggest
possible thoughts per the Sapir-Worf hypothesis*, etc]

* Thoughts aren't made strictly possible by linguistic relativity,
however uncommunicable thoughts are likely to get cannibalized and
forgotten, by and because of [respectively] communicable ones. Don't
get my meaning confused.

i illustrate this example with one from Neal Stephenson's
"Cryptonomicon" in which one of the characters is described as a "drug
addict" (noun). no longer a human being (noun), a (noun) drug addict.

in german an adverb would be used. "Ah, you are morphine hyphen
seeky?" would be the literal translation. as in, "you are a human
being, with a BEHAVIOURAL QUALIFIER that tends to convey on you a
propensity to seek out morphine?"

absolutely huge, huge difference.

another example is sanskrit, "Thank God I am alive HYPHEN childed"
taking a NOUN (child), turning it into an ADVERB (child-ed), and using
it as a german-style qualifier of a VERB.

which is incredibly powerful.

it says:

"thank god i am alive"
"thank god my children are alive"
"thank god i am alive at the same simultaneous time as my children
happen to be alive (focus on the relief of the simultaneity)"
"thank GOD (focus on celebration) at the same simultaneous time as my
children happen to be alive"

there were several more subtle implications when i examined this 20
years ago, most of which i've forgotten.

it features a certain Mr. Albert Einstein erm singing?
