- ahem - so you want to seal of this area as inaccessible to discussion
because "I wasn't there" so "can't" understand??  sorry, unleesh, that
is total crap.  I'd be happy to discuss/disagree with you about what
constitutes a filter, or the possibility of communication without
filters -- but you really are ducking the issues here.  It sounds more
like "we might as well forget this thread because I can't justify what
I've said but don't want to change my mind" to me.

as for your use of "milieu" - this is an outrageous claim!! what about
tranversal relations between milieus ??--- aren't they called rhizomes
or something...??

it ALL connects on the plane of immannence, remember?
