Subject: RE: Total Recall


Because Arnie is an example of s.c "schizophrenic body of desire", where
body is substitued for anti-body, body of consumption,multipling
never-dying ever-lsting body "without organs".Everything on surface, like

Rhizomes......
Our Roots will go deeper
Our Trees will grow higher
And we are stronger!
