Scientific Theory and another list

List:  I have so been enjoying the banter between people of different
countries about their needs and experiences, their ideas, their
recommendations, and their poetic and emotional reactions.  I was planning
to do the Camino this year, but am going to Turkey, so will go next.  I have
started a book with lots of information from different posts--from Rosina's
impressive information, to Pieter's, to Rolf's, to Howard in NYC.  I feel
like I am getting to know each of you in some way, and I just want to say,
it is a pleasure.  Thank you.
I love this quote:
"...because I am planning to interfere with
intellectual structures in the US..." (Rolf)

Interfere all you wish.  We all need our structures of thought
deconstructed.  All the better to get to the real commonality, right?  ali/
