    I don't think any rational and somewhat learned person of this era would
    ever contend that all things _are not_ connected. I certainly don't, and
    I'm at the low ramp on the bell curve. In fact, I contend just the
    opposite, and make some insistence that all things are connected.

    I just don't go off the blind-sided end and claim all things are
    conscious, in the same way I look at the Gaia hypothesis with veiled
    amusement.
