Dear Judy
I dont understand that
As a principle (axiom?) I doubt it
as an applied axiom (principle?) I don't understand it
I'm not sure what youre saying
I *think, certainly without further stimulus, my position is that I can
think of nothing worthwhile to say about Bukowski
I am surprised by the endorsement; but recall that I was in that space - so
I am drawing no conclusions about your endorsement beyond saying Do look
again
I began to doubt it many years ago when there was a big section in Second
Aeon headed _Buk_
fade in Peggy Lee, _Is that all there is?_
a thought experiment fade in I find endlessly applicable
all best
