And their containers and (partial) accepter/rejecter/modifier, human
self-conscious awareness. BTW, Robin, I found it very
inconsistent of you (to say the least) that you slagged what you
insinuated was a book on the list that I posted per your request,
and then when I went to the book and showed that it was
misrepresented, you said "But NOOooo, it wasn't that book at all,
and for you to say so was bad faith or denseness, and don't you
now feel foolish?" All you had to do was to go to the pages and
verify or falsify whether or not the passages I quoted were indeed
there to ascertain same. But don't worry; I've ordered the book,
and will check it and inform the list myself. Regardless, your flip-
flop on whether or not the book I listed (with full author and title, I
might add) was the one you referred to was either extremely sloppy
or a argumentatively based failure of duplicity.
