"Quant_OM" :
> ...Don't thank me, I want you to keep hating me. 

not knowing you or hardly ever reading your posts, I have no reason
to hate you. if you post on the subject of magic or divination then
I may be more likely to converse with you, however. :>

> I'll steal your souls in death that way. 

I doubt it, but then again, I don't believe in the machine-ghosts.
your threats in usenet are peculiar, given our lack of interaction.

> Put that Death card to use in meditation ....

this is what got me responding to you, besides your
followup to my post on summoning.

that's a very interesting idea, Quant_OM. it is in part what I
do all the time, focussed as I am on the most wrathful aspects
of Kali in worship. Death is ostensibly, when I'm on, an ever-
present reality to which I pay close attention. this seems to
be common ground with martial artists cleaving to the code of
the Samurai ('Bushido'), according to some texts I've read
about it and conversations I've had with those who adore it.

I'd suggest that it emphasizes the fragility of the processes
ongoing which I take for granted, which serve to make it 
possible for me to continue, and which will one day cease
entirely and vaporize my fictional composition and loosely-
adhering consciousness.

> Ready, son?

in case it wasn't clear, I'm ignoring your off-topic maelstrom
in favour of actual substantive material. I hope you and I can
somehow have a synchronous communication, since you seem to
enjoy the use of words (in peculiar application). 

blessed beast!
