This was devastating to a degree. Two things for which I've lusted, McKenna's library... and Dave Davies' guitar collection.

I suspect McKenna's viewpoint is going to become increasingly relevant as the future accelerates down upon us...

Do you remember the old Sinbad movie where Sinbad was being chased by a pirate's corsair and additionally set upon by a ship- swallowing tsunami? The pirate tried to outrun the wave and was lost. Sinbad steered right into its teeth and survived to give the heroine a big squeeze later on.

There's a lesson in there... and praise the machine elves, but that his brother had at least a bibliography, eh?

How did you know that I am a huge Sinbad fan? There is a lesson is all Sinbad movies, but maybe especially the one you speak of.

Yes, I suppose steering right into the teeth is always best!
