If I had to classify myself as anything, it'd probably be Neo-Pagan Taoist Cyberpunk. I don't really follow/classify myself as any particular...
Thanks - the positive response it's received has made me consider adding to it, but I don't think I will - for one thing, I just don't have the...
Thanks again for your thought and kind words. I think the "Angel as run down humanity" angle has been done far better than I could by Patrick...
Very true, but it's never been a driving force behind me writing anything...and I can't see that changing. I do write a lot of notes, short...
That was pretty good - you can't beat a decent bit of sarcasm to blow a ridiculous argument out of the water :)
I don't think I explained myself very well - for a start I can't stand video games and pinball is just....utterly mindless. I absolutely love...
I like that :) I've been trying to figure out if it's the process of walking, the fact of being outside, the view, other sensory stimuli, or a...
Thanks for the kind words, but I don't think there's going to be any more of this. There are three main reasons for this : 1) It was never...

I didn't say we couldn't ever know, just that there's no reason that it would be obvious, or, indeed, easy to find out whether this was the case....

Eh? If anyone's interested I've just started a new thread on the nature of life and related stuff...don't know if it's your cup of tea, but if...
